Description: |
Not in the "best" photo category, but this one scores high in the "favorite" group of 2015 photos. There's something universal and magical about little boys waving up at locomotive engineers, and getting a wave back. This could have been me when I was four years old! |

Description: |
On the other shore, part way up the slope of Blue Mountain you can see the old bridge abutment and first pier of the old Lehigh and New England Railroad's high bridge over the Lehigh River. There are some fellow railroad photographers who got the Lehigh Gap scene from that perch. |
