Welcome to the RRPictureArchives.NET contributor site of Larry Larson.  

I have been model railroading since 1976, and taking rail pictures since about 1978.  Unfortunately, most of early shots were with a 110 camera, so of poor quality.  Oh, what I would give to have had a good 35m SLR or a good digital back then. I got into 35mm in the mid 80s, and went digital late 2002.

I have acquired a couple thousand shots over the years.  I plan to upload only those that I think are different, scenic, or unique.

My wife got me into trains.  I had a subscription to a "girlie" magazine when we got married, oh so long ago :>).  She said no more of that stuff, and went out and bought me the March 1976 issue of Railroad Modeler (I still have it).  I never had a train set as a kid, but this magazine was interesting.  So I ordered up two train sets from some mail order catalogs, and it has been non-stop since.

My wife periodically travels around the country for work, and I will tag along if there are interesting railroads in the area.  And we vacation by motorcycle trips every year, and I always route our travels to pass by whatever railroads are in the vicinity.
