Railfan Photo Evening - WW&F

The live steam mixed train operates along the WW&F main line. A few run-by's and staged scenes occurred at this location. As I took this photo the lead boxcar is being spotted at the crossing for loading.
On the Thursday Evening of this years NNGC a group of rail-buff's gathered for a ride and photo session on the WW&F at Alna, Maine. For $21 we had a really good time and some great photo opportunities. All was well organized with proper photo lines and staged scenes. Although overcast and getting near sunset it all worked out well...George Dutka

A little discussion between the crew before we left for Alna.

At Alna Center No. 9 gives us a great show of steam power.

The engine runs around the train for us. I took a step back to get a second shot which included many of the paying railfans.

The WW&F train crew staged this neat little loading scene at the Alna Center crossing for us. They started out with a different truck but it broke down so the backup made it's way down.

A little oiling while the rest of the crew talk over the rest of the evenings events.

I rode the last coach and got this shot as we departed about 7pm of the truck crossing behind us. The Alna Center platform is seen to the right.
