  • I love these images. It reminds me of something vintage. I didn't know trains can look this classy in a rugged type way.

  • amelia merrick's photos of crusties are all awesome. i used to jump the Bethlehen Steel trains behind my parent's house and ride them all over. i wonder if Nikki did too. or from downtown allentown out toward PA dutch country.

  • Thanks to the poster for blogging this. I randomly came across this while googling my name (something i do every six months or so).

    I'm not sure if the poster was aware...but I work a few buildings over as the women's apparel web photographer for Urban. Our dogs probably play together.
