First Annual Night Photo Shoot
Saturday June 12, 2004
9PM - 11PM
Flash illumination will be provided - you bring your photo gear.

We will have at least FIVE scenes set up through the night featuring both passenger and freight consists. The locomotives we will be using for the photos are:
* EMD FL-9 (ex-CDOT & New Haven)
* GE 44 Tonner (ex-Long Island RR)
* Alco S-4 (ex-Central Vermont)
* EMD SW-8 (ex-Pfizer, nee-Wabash)

There will be time for multiple photos of each scene.

Price is only $15 per person.

Space is very limited - we are only making 15 spots available, and advanced payment is required to ensure your spot. Of course, every dollar will be going to support the museum - everyone involved is donating their equipment and time!

Some more details are on the museum's website - http://www.cteastrrmuseum.org Email me directly at [email protected] with any questions, or reservation requests.

Thanks!
