If you see some shots that you like, I will burn a Custom Photo CD or DVD with those photos or video on them.  I will also include the description of where the photo was taken.  All of this for as little as $3.00

Why you might ask ??      I have seen others offer Photo CD's with pictures of Trains or whatever.  I thought I would offer this also but this way YOU get to choose the pictures that YOU want.  I guess I could offer Prints of the photos also, but one print would cost just as much as a Photo CD with 50-60 photos on it.  So I decided to let people choose the photos they want, then I will burn the CD.  Then once you have the photos you can get prints or do what ever with those shots.

The Rebirth of  C&O #614

I would invite you to check out a webpage dedicated to the Chesapeake and Ohio #614. This 4-8-4 Greenbrier type Steam locomotive was one of the last 4-8-4 built.  It was state of the art for steam.  However this beautiful steamer has been silent for over 10 years.  But the owner would like to bring this beauty back under steam.  This is going to be a large undertaking but wee worth the effort.  Please check out the NEW webpage for more information on the revival of C&O #614.
