I’m a self taught photographer based out of Central Pennsylvania. I live near 2 NS Divisions, The D&H Sunbury Line and the NS Buffalo Line. I also photograph 2 North Shore Branches being the Shamokin Branch and the Bloomsburg Branch. I travel to photograph Steam and occasional regional and shortline operation. When I’m not photographing. I help out at the Harrisburg Lincoln & Lancaster Railroad as a Brakeman/Student Fireman and also help as the Steam Tractor Operator.
