The Dixie Inn (3210)

Night time at the Dixie Inn, located in Hinckley CA, a town perhaps most famous for PG&E and Erin Brockovich. I illuminated the exterior and interior with warm white and blue lights from various angles with a handheld ProtoMachines LED2 light painting device while the camera's shutter was open. You can see the streaks of light from a train rumbling by just behind the structure. This was photographed during a week-long 1582-mile road trip with Mike Cooper.

The Old Dixie Highway is an historic road but there's not many original sections left. This original brick section in Northeast Florida is a joy to check out.
To show Dixie ... I have a Lamp the same as the image she placed up . I used photoshop Quick selection tool to remove the background from this image ,then I placed it on a starry background bringing in a moon overlay to cover the frosted glass circle and give it a more realistic feel , next I placed a fog overlay and lastly a Orton filter to blur it and give it a soft feel .

Just sitting here going through my old photos as I am house bound due to the Coronavirus (I don't have it, but I am one of the vulnerable ones).

Southbound Chicago & Eastern Illinois train #93, the "Dixie Limited" has just knocked the signal down at "NE" tower south of Crete, Illinois in 1940. Train has C&EI #1023 and the photo looks north from the north side of the tower, showing the interlocking rods leading to the switches and signals. The engineer has a big smile and wave. Train appears to have about 12 cars. Also to the left of the home signal by the telegraph poles are 2 more men. They appear to be dressed nicely and have cameras in their hands, but it's difficult to make out.
C&EI Class K-3 4-6-2 #1023 was built by Lima in January of 1923. This was the last 4-6-2 Pacific built for the Chicago & Eastern Illinois RR.

Lumberton, NC
Vintage Americana right here. The Dixie Drive-In opened in the 1960s and is still serving customers in Lumberton, a small(ish) city in North Carolina.
Here's a snippet from an excellent article about the Dixie that Andrew Kenney wrote for the Our State web site:
"Practically speaking, the Dixie has to be a drive-in. With just six booths, 15 stools, and a bathroom around back, the building is too small for many diners to eat inside.
This is the way Howard and Edith Stevens, the Dixie’s founders, imagined the place. Howard had worked nights on the short-order line at a drive-in after spending the day laboring on the family farm outside Whiteville. When he and Edith decided to sell the farm and open the Dixie in 1963, their sons — George, Steve, and Tony — were nearly grown.
Older patrons can tell you how they remember the husband-and-wife team: Edith cooking fries while Howard worked the grill in a long-sleeve shirt and dress shoes. They claim they never saw a stain of mustard or ketchup on Howard.
They also remember how the sons came in after school and worked shifts. Now those shifts have turned into careers: George has never worked anywhere else; Steve came back after serving in the Air Force; and Tony, a Baptist preacher on the side, found his way home after attending Bible college.
“You do what your daddy says,” Steve says with a laugh. “I pretty much knew I was going to come back.”
Generations of customers — the children and grandchildren of the mechanics and lawyers and farmhands in Robeson County — come back, too. They come back for the same burger, fixed the same way. It only costs a little more than it used to."
