The People Keep A-Coming But the Train Done Gone

The People Keep A-Coming But the Train Done Gone
Found glass plate negative.
Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of:
"Photos that are damaged, faded, or have other imperfections, especially ones in which the flaws somehow enhance the image. This includes photos with defective processing, light leakage, and double exposures."

Smiley Derleth, Alan Mays, Steve Bucknell, Roger (Grisly) have particularly liked this photo

Love this old photo, two images for the price of one!

Thanks, Roger! There's something about this glass plate negative that I find very satisfying. Perhaps it's the combination of an ordinary unremarkable scene and an out of time strangeness that I see in it.

A great, spooky, photo, like something from the Twilight Zone. Love your title; sounds like a folk song lyric.

Thanks, Rick. The title is the chorus line of a old spiritual, and I've always loved that line - even though I'm not salvation minded. : )

Thanks, raingirl. I love the way that being involved with a community of vintage photographers, I've learned to appreciate old "flawed" photos - although the perfect ones are nice, too. : )

Wonderful, the way he raises a ghostly flag towards the fading future. The train won’t be coming now.

This is great! It's probably one of those ghost-to-ghost railroads!
