High-quality black-and-white photographs of large old machines and tools

[Ed Weldon]

Those of you who might get to Ely, Nevada. There is an old shortline mining railroad (the Nevada Northern) there that runs steam excursion trains in the summer. If you catch them in the off season and things are quiet there see, if you can get over their machine shop and talk sweet to the shop boss. Maybe he will let you get into the dark recesses of the engine house where there is hidden an ancient railroad blacksmith shop. Give me some encouragement and I'll try to share my photos of it illuminated by a late August afternoon sun some 20 years ago.
