Railroads
Seeing History Through the Lens
When the west was young one of the first things they established was the railroads and Nevada has successfully restored and preserved the history of the railroads that have made the west great. Moving here from Nebraska I have also put a spattering of railroad pics from the Midwest, I hope you enjoy.
Thank you for visiting my gallery

Donner Train Tunnels
I was able to tour the abandoned train tunnels near Donner CA. To avoid avalanches blocking the tracks they build these train tunnels to protect them. The tunnels are fulled with graffiti
Browse Smugmug for similar shoots of these beautiful tunnels
