From the back of the card:
"Red automatic signal #2553 - the "dated" old wig-wag crossing warning - the still "orange, red and black" painted engine - and the train's number, "72" - paint the perfect picture here of yesterday's peerless railroading. The first three digits on the signal's number-plate are 253, the mile long Southern Pacific's Coast Line in which the picture was taken. So - just about a mile below San Luis Obispo, California, is the spot. That swinging crossing "alerter" bespeaks of many years ago. The "Daylight" colored, twin-eyed Northern Type locomotie reminds us of the flashy "Fifties, when people rode the trains. And when the Coast Mail, the well-known "headend" rattler with a rear-end coach, was still No. 72 - it was at least till 1954. In 1955 she became no. 90, headed south (eastbound).
This locomotive, this big 4457, flaunts silver-gray plummages as if she were in charge of the "Daylight". Yet the lowly mail-and-express train trails her haughty tender in its smoky wake. Perhaps her steamy sinews are exultant as she dreams of runs before her time - when "72" adorned more ancient engines at the helm of that first old-world, delightful - "Daylight Limited"...
Southern Pacific"
The post card was published by Vanishing Vistas of Sacramento, CA in 1974. The photo is by Donald Duke, the text by Howard W. Bull.
This is on old picture, it was already posted on Flickr two years ago. I was looking for my self-portraits from the archives, and I found its original RAW file. I felt an urge to edit it in a newer look. Posting a larger version, now you can see more details of the image. This photo was taken during my first weeks of using wireless flashes.

Talk to film photographers for long enough and the subject will inevitably move away from locations, gear and techniques to the nitty gritty of what to do with all those negatives.
In fact, it was a few recent discussions on Twitter that acted as the genesis for this longer than planned article....

I was an archivist for 21 years, and was involved in archives in various ways for twenty more years afterwards. I knew Burn Gill when he was the only person in our province with "Archivist" as his job title.
Burn's been dead twenty years. In that time he has had two archival buildings named after him. This one houses the city's archives. I was walking by it early this morning. The parking lot was empty, so I think no one was there yet.
Yes definitely from the archives because I am not at this point relaxing. But I am looking forward to it.
