Pullman Rail Car

One more from my trip to the Transportation Museum yesterday. So many very cool trains! This is a Pullman rail car. Note the weathered roof. I tried processing this in antique, but I preferred the pop of the colors, which strengthened the linear vanishing point.

Thanks for treating yesterday's shot of inside a tanker car so kindly. I had never been inside of such a structure, so it was very fun.

Take care, all, and thank you for taking time to comment. :)

[Danette Thompson]

Great capture. Looks like a fun place.

[Gena Pegg]

[PhotoCrazy]

Wonderful pic!

[Taffy]

I like the way you've created so many leading lines from the natural objects -- platform, train, windows, and the various squares/rectangles make for an interesting combination. Looks like it was a great place for photography.

Love the pov and framing

[Jane Pittenger]

Yes...the vanishing point is the winner here. Great one

[Jane Anderson]

Very pretty, and I know the history. Were you able to go inside?

[AmyJ]

Very nice!

[Rosie Kerr]

@cejaanderson No, unfortunately. I could peek in the windows, but the reflections were very intruding. It was very fun to see!

[Rosie Kerr]

@taffy It was very fun... the lighting was challenging, because of the inside/outside contrasts, but that made it interesting, too!

[Gayle Sears]

Nice pov.

[Sandy]

I love the lines and POV--and the composition. Big FAV

[Debs Stott]

I'm glad you left the red in, it really makes a great contrast to the train.

Great shot.

[KWind]

Great shot! Love the vintage train.

[Kim]

Great perspective. Thanks for sharing this historical image. Love the lines and shapes you've included.

[Vera]

Beautiful lines, I like how graphic this shot is while still having a clear subject.

[Marnie]

Great leading lines Rosie, I like the coloured girders in the roof. They make the duller colours of the carriage stand out particularly well.

[Joan Robillard]

My husband loved trains. When we went on a trip and there was a train ride we almost always went. He probably would have loved this place.

[Tony Guest (snoopybooboo)]

Wonderful. Fav.

[Danny G.]

Strong composition! FAV

[Kim Harper]

I can just imagine the people entering and exiting this train. Such history. Your perspective is just great. Really gives it a real feel!

I like the POV. My friend's father worked for the Pullman company when he started out working.
