Welcome to the RRPictureArchives.NET contributor site of John Huey.
The search for the perfect Railroad image takes many of us to many locations. Many wonderful memories do not even have an image recorded to accompany them. Memories of friends and acquaintances met along the road, or on the train itself. This small contribution seeks to add to the legacy of our collective railroad experience; not only to focus on the "here and now", but also the "way back when". If you have not had the chance to see the remaining Colorado Narrow Gauge, you are missing out on a giant portion of our railroad legacy.
Preserving the history of my favorite fallen flag, the ESPEE and its subsidiaries, has become a growing passion as of late. I am being bombarded by wonderful old memories of the people I knew 30 some years ago, when still a very new railfan. As I scan each rediscovered image, the past comes alive, and the forgotten details begin to reappear. I started out having no clue where to go, other than the tracks around my neighborhood. A trip to discover a new hobby shop, one up in La Puente CA, introduced me to the yard in Industry; and I have never looked back.
I have these few albums thus far; please enjoy your visit here. I hope these images will be as nostalgic and informative for you, as they have been for me.
I will be adding more images all of the time so check back; may God bless you all.
