Well, here's one of me after fishing for old RR iron in one of the local rivers nearby a few years back with a catch of coupling links. When i'm not running trains for NS i'm usually out exploring old abandoned RR's and hunting for old RR artifacts & iron. I don't have any pictures of myself taken on any trains like everyone else, sigh, so this will have to do for now.

This is me. Photo taken in 2009 by Park Ranger Kenny Ganz. For several years, I played a Living History character explaining yard operations. On a slow Sunday, waiting for the crowds to appear, I posed on this D&H boxcar at Steamtown.

Tis I on the left with the polka dot krommer.

It looks to me like all those people in the photo in Doe River Gorge are posing for another photographer. I'd say there was a second photographer across the gorge that got a shot of the train broadside.
Just think, there could be a yet undiscovered photo of that first train taken from a different angle, if it developed of course.

I'd love to post a photo of me doing something exciting, like welding a patch on a flue sheet, but unfortunately we at the Keokuk Union Depot project don't have a locomotive -- or any rolling stock, for that matter. The most exciting thing I get to do is re-lay sidewalk and platform bricks. However, when 300 school kids came for a reading of "The Polar Express" in December, I got to play conductor and collect their "tickets."

First time posting pictures here so hopefully this works out.

So happy to be a part of TVRM.

Is that lunch I smell?

How about breakfast
Thanks to Flagg Coal 75 for the heat.

There sure are a lot of "taken by Howard P." photos on this thread!!!!

What are you planning for breakfast next June, Big Al?? And don't say kim-chee....

Howard P.

Yes there are, I just had difficulty rounding them up and done a poor job of editing - mea culpa.

Also - I'm not into self-exposure - hence the need for others to do the expositions.

And yes -

This June - Sadie will be providing selected sizzling sumptuous and savory snacks.

The Choo-Choo Chef ® will be in.

Hopefully, the popcorn fountain will be cranked up as well.

Kim Chee does not grill well. Maybe a pot of Kim Chee Jigae will be on the backhead where the teapot goes - er - make that valve oil.

First cut menu -

Eggs, toast, steak?, steamed corn, baked potatos.

Any suggestions? Whatever it is, it's either gotta be cooked fast or slow without fussing no stirring, adding stuff, yabba, yabba.

Hot dogs, sausage, & the like would be OK too.

If I had a recipe, naan would be perfect too - just slap it on the side sheet for a few seconds. I'm sure the Indians have done it!

Pulled pork butt - low and slow in a dutch oven on the backhead with a bit of liquid smoke in the braise.....apple cider works well for thet.

The "best" photo of me that I have (not many) with regards to a train - an image from Mitch Goldman (thanks) of me taking an early morning video of N&W #475 at Strasburg before their steam double-headed freight late last year. From one of my better angles...

Also, in the midst of my weight loss journey, earlier last year - with my nephews at Williams Grove, PA and the PRR 0-6-0 #643 there.

I might as well join the parade.

This is a picture taken of me a couple of years ago while on one of many trips chasing the grade of the old Carson & Colorado RR / Southern Pacific narrow gauge through Nevada. The location is at Belleville, Nevada, a former milling location for the mines at Candelaria.
Here is a head/shoulder crop of the same image.
