Description
This is the oldest set of my negatives I have found. I have a few older contact sheets, but no negatives.
From www.arcadeandatticarr.com/our_… In the late 1950's, freight business began to slide and something had to be done in order to save the short line. The decision was made to try steam powered passenger excursions. #18, a 1920 2-8-0 American locomotive, was purchased in 1962 from the Boyne City Railroad in Michigan along with two Delaware, Lackawanna and Western coaches. The inaugural run was on July 27 1962 for railroad officials and the press. Regular summertime excursions began in August of the same year.
On Labor Day, 1962, Dad took sister Marty and me for an excursion. She would have been 11 and I, 12, and about to start seventh grade. Dad's notes say Verichrome Pan; I have no recollection of the camera, a simple medium format box of some sort.
The negatives are only nominally square. There is little if any spacing between them so they are slightly higher than wide.
