The Color Photography of Robert Malinoski.

Just the name Robert Malinoski is indicative of masterful, expert camera work as exhibited in national rail magazines for more than fifty years. If the lighting and conditions were not perfect, he didn't take the shot.

Now here is his choice, top-drawer color artistry on over fifty different roads during the decade when the best of steam and early diesels worked hand-in-hand.
