Follow the link above to my just-released photo essay about the East Broad Top RR.
I'm sometimes asked what my photographic personal project is, until now its been under wraps. But now not anymore...
I welcome comments, corrections, or feedback.
Enjoy,
Matthew
Thanks for helping keeping the memory alive.
Great stuff Maestro, magnificent and melancholy, with a real "life after people" mysteriousness to it. Reminds me a bit of the Joyce Kilmer poem, "The House With Nobody In It."

Read the poem everyone, and see if you agree.
Wow, a sad commentary on what was, what is and what could be.
Maestro, keep up the fight.
Thank you so much for that. Sometimes I wish the world was black and white like that. And yes Firelock, I agree.
Thank you all for your comments left here as well as under the essay, and the emails my way. The East Broad Top is my all-time favorite railroad, I want only the very best for it. To this day, visiting is an addiction I cannot break. When the alarm clock goes off at ungodly hours of the morning I can't get out of bed fast enough. At the end of a long day of shooting I don't want to leave. It is my photographic personal project; I anticipate my next return.
I know just how you feel Matthew, I feel the same way about Valley Forge, whenever I'm in the area I just can't stay away from the place, I must have been there at least 20 times by now. Can't tell you why either, something keeps pulling me back there time and time again.
And no, I don't believe I died there in a previous life! I DO get an interesting vibe from the place I can't explain however.
