Shades of Rust

Posted by Stephanie (Tuscaloosa, United States) on 25 March 2007 in Transportation and Portfolio.

I love taking pictures of really old things, and rusted things, and antiques.

The train yard I went to is really a train museum. It has a lot of pieces pertaining to Alabama's railroad history (which I didn't know Alabama had RR history) and a bunch of trains on multiple dead end tracks that just sit there. Some of them look like they've been caught on fire while others look like it would need carbon dating to know how long it's been there. This car would fall under the latter category. This is the reason they don't want people climbing the trains: some parts of the floor of that train had rusted holes!
