About sdfourty

Best hobby in the world ! A photographer friend recommended the Nikon brand, bought my first used Nikon in 1976 and continue to use that Nikon body regularly. Best ever train ride: Extra 6060 west, with seven blue with yellow stripes CC&F cars, Ottawa to Toronto via the now lifted Smiths Falls subdivision - at 25 mph, then onto the Kingston sub, west of Napanee the engineman let 6060 run: at 80+ mph, sounded like the Turbo ! Then a quick deceleration & stop at Port Hope: the crowd was huge ! And demonstrated that the 'grape vine' really worked (who needs "social media" ! ) : the whole town showed up! sdfourty.
