Those boys look awfully clean to be railroaders....

There is also that nice clean "Wheel Chock" which would not have been there if this photo were posed in the steam days.

Considering the fact that C&O #614 is sitting posed under a giant brightly lit white truss canopy, I do not believe Chase was going for a nostalgia in this composition! Nice shot, Chase and a special thanks to the crew of volunteers posing strictly for the love of railroading and the machines that served both the C&O and the N&W.

Bill, This photo was taken after the event was over. The actors wanted a group shot together. During the main event, the chock would of been hidden.
