An amazing collection
https://www.flickr.com/photos/barrigerlibrary/page1/
I scanned this site for a couple hours last night. Page after page of photos. Over 200 pages I think, and I barely got past 10. I am not steamer-savvy, so can't say what all is there - but appears to be an example of everything. Some excellent photos of camelbacks there. GG1s. Alco PA and PB. F and E units. And tons of stuff I had never seen before. All in their natural habitat.

 That's quite an extensive collection there. I'll definitely find myself looking through those. It's great resources like these that make me really like the idea of the internet.

A family friend just introduced me to that site two days ago... what are the odds?  An incredible resource to be sure.

Wow...amazing. Small world.
Not only are the train photos incredible peeks into the past, but the photos of structures, buildings, towns, industries.....a real resource for modeling.
Have to say it drives me crazy though, not knowing exactly when and where they were all taken. They are identified - as far as I can tell anyway - by railroad alone. The time span runs from the 20s up to the 50s and perhaps a few 60s (I think?)
Kind of like being in a time machine with a random viewer
