PERE MARQUETTE 1225 STEAM LOCOMOTIVE 2018 FAVES - DECEMBER 23, 2018

For those of you who are not in the know, here in Michigan we have a real-live steam locomotive that runs during the holiday season between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Owned and operated by the Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, MI, it is that steam locomotive, you know, the one featured in the The Polar Express movie.

This is my third year photographing the steam engine, and every year I try to find another scene or way to photograph it, one that is better than an image I captured before. I highly recommend either riding or photographing this train, it is a piece of history that has been lovingly restored and brings happiness to both children and adults alike.

For 2018, we had quite a few different weather anomalies, such as a full rainbow (a rare event for me), fog, and the absence of snow. The funnest part, however, is hanging out with my photography friends as we race down country roads to get to the next shooting location. Below are my favorite images captured during the 2018 season (in no certain order). The last image is of an old amusement park we came upon on the side of the road (with a bit of Photoshopping sprinkled in by yours truly!). 

These images can be purchased in my Boat/Train/Car gallery.
