The new ELHS 2011 calendars have just arrived. Let's take a peek at what's inside!

The cover shot is a brilliantly-lit late afternoon "sweet light" shot of an RS3 and E8 at the north end of Hoboken Terminal. Ahhh... those were the days!

The frontispiecephoto is a view of an oncoming Train Master from the cab of a train on an adjacent track on the west side of Binghamton. The "tall" appearance of these units is very obvious in this photo.

January starts off with a wonderfully snowy shot of Train PB-100 flying past the Kent, Ohio station, kicking up the white stuff as it moves along.

February features a dramatic black-and-white image of a pair of SD45-2s leading an eastbound piggyback train around a curve in Tuxedo, NY, with some snowfall still blanketing the ground in this mid-March view.

March has an Erie RS2 leading a westbound commuter train at the Ridgewood, NJ station. The first car out is one of those weird-looking Stillwell "combines." The Alco is clean and shiny in this snapshot of small town America from 1956.
