Photo A Day: Railroad Car

In honor of getting a new camera and needing a reason to play with it…welcome to my Photo A Day! Topic: Whatever strikes my fancy. Frequency: Daily-ish. I hope.George and I took a drive yesterday, just around the streets of our little town, to see what photo ops were happening on a Sunday afternoon.Now, this town is not big. And I have lived here for twelve years. I don't claim to know everything about this town but I do know a lot of things, and I enjoy going off the beaten path. So, imagine my surprise when we drove past an abandoned caboose, parked in the middle of a field. On a personal-size length of track. That I had no idea was there.Of course, George was like, "Oh, yeah, there's that old rail car...odd, innit?" And he's got no idea why this caboose is in the middle of a field or how it got there, but he's ridden past it a bajillion times because it's on one of his favorite bike routes. For him, the caboose in the field on a tiny length of track was business as usual (if there's a caboose in the field, it must be Tuesday), and he seemed mildly surprised that I wanted to stop and commit it to digital memory.As it was profoundly not what I was expecting, I felt like I had no choice. So behold! An abandoned Conrail caboose to nowhere, in the middle of a field in Lewisburg, PA. Which is one of the least Tuesday things I can think of.
