The stream train was heading back from Elmira to St. Jacobs and was about to cross Hwy 85. Dozens of cars were stopped and people were out taking pictures. I like the nostalgic look of the Black and White effect. The Waterloo Central Railway did a great job restoring this engine. If you are ever in St. Jacobs come and check it out!

The Waterloo Central Railway Steam Train was running between St. Jacobs and Waterloo this weekend. I happened to be driving by this trestle bridge as the train was approaching. Despite the rain I got this shot. A little work in Photoshop and a few filters yielded these results.

The Waterloo Central Railway is restoring this Essex Terminal Railway Alco 0-6-0 Switcher Number 9 to active steam. The restoration shed is located in the village of St. Jacobs and along with my friend Anthony I was able to get some shots of this Steam Train . We challenged each other to do something creative with the shots so these are a few of them. All the photo’s in the compilation shots are photo’s I have taken over the past year.
