http://www.losttracksoftime.com/p47324941On two separate occasions last month, by special invitation and permission from railroad management, I was allowed access to the East Broad Top’s roundhouse and backshops.
The granddaddy of steam-era portals to the past, I found the interiors particularly difficult to photograph; to capture both the magnitude of preserved industrial revolution before my eyes, and what I was feeling while roaming the hallowed grounds. It boggles the mind that these scenes from 100+ years ago still exist.
All the stable mates are there; old friends - still together - getting older: 16, 18, 12, 17, 15, 14 & M-1.
Time stands still.
Enjoy,
Matthew
