Outbound Strasburg Railroad 2-10-0 # 90 and train approaching Cherry Hill Road. Strasburg Pennsylvania USA. August 1990.

I took this black and white photograph on vacation in August of 1990. On a hazy hot and humid summer morning in August of 1990, I went lineside on the Strasburg Railroad to shoot some black and white photographs of the steam tourist trains. Passing a farmers field and approaching the little shanty at Cherry Hill Road near the Groff's Grove depot, is Strasburg Railroad Baldwin 2-10-0 type # 90, leading the outbound passenger train to Paradise Pennsylvania. The ornate open air coach coupled behind the locomotive, was featured in the movie "Hello Dolly", wich had starred Barbra Streisand and Walter Mathau.
