Viewing Album:  Clinchfield RR Erwin TN. 1975
 
By:Fred Stuckmann
Dates:10/15/1975 - 12/11/2010
Album Info:A two day journey from Elkhorn City KY. to Spartanburg SC. The few I've posted here are from Erwin and Elkhorn City. I took plenty more but weather and stupidity limited what I have to share. I'm not at all sure of some of the locations, but I think I've at least got them in the right states.

We would leave Elkhorn City for a two day excursion on the entire length of the Clinchfield. A bit hazy and grainy. Lesson: Cheap film, cheap rewards. Date approximate.

Like most everywhere I go with a camera, the rain clouds follow. A little break appears as if to point to this unit.

Description:  At least with digital, if the image is not right, I know that it's my fault. With film, any number of things can go wrong. Besides the tone in these shots, some of our travel films were lost. 8 rolls of them.

CRR 1 and F3B units were pulling a substantial train up this grade. It was a good time, my thanks to all who made it possible.
