Packard series

 

Packard Motor Car Company was an American luxury automobile company. It was founded in Warren Ohio as the Ohio Automobile Company by James Ward Packard, his brother William, and their partner, George Lewis Weiss. The first car rolled out of the factory on November 6, 1899.

 

Packard’s cars were considered the preeminent luxury car before World War II, and owning a Packard was prestigious. Henry Bourne Joy, a member of one of Detroit's oldest and wealthiest families, bought a Packard. Impressed by its reliability, he brought together a group of investors to refinance the company, soon after which Packard moved its operations to Detroit.

 

In 1953 (or 1954, depending on your source), Packard bought rival Studebaker and formed the Studebaker-Packard Corporation of South Bend, Indiana. Some historians believe that this was the beginning of the end of the company. It was certainly followed by a series of circumstances and events that ultimately led to the end of the company in 1962.

 

This series of photographs was taken at America’s Packard Museum in Dayton, Ohio. The Museum is a restored Packard dealership transformed into a museum that displays twentieth-century classic Packards and historic Packard artifacts and memorabilia.

 

The dealership originally sold Packards in Dayton, Ohio beginning in 1908. It moved into the building that is now home to the museum in 1917. Robert Signom II, the museum's Founder and Curator for 27 years, acquired the building in 1991 and painstakingly rehabilitated it to its original Art Deco grandeur, opening the museum in 1992.

 

Car Collector magazine named the museum one of the top ten automotive museums in the United States. The cars on display range from 1900s Brass Era cars, the streamlined Classic cars of the 1930s and 1940s, to the modern Packards of the 1950s. The museum also has a collection of war machines, parts, accessories, and original sales and service literature.

One of my New Year's resolutions this year is to master negative scanning with a camera at home. My attempts will be posted here to share progress and as a reference for myself. The purpose is, in part, to share my journey with others who might have the same interest. All serious questions are welcome and will be answered. All pointers and advice are both encouraged and welcome.

This photo was shot on a sunny but cold winter day on Kodak Gold 200 in 135 (35mm) format. It was developed and digitized at home by yours truly. This is part of my continuing quest to achieve the best results possible from film at the lowest possible investment of production time and money. I'm not there yet, but I am quite happy with the improvements so far.

The 1501 came from the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie where it was used on their commuter train and had a patriotic paint scheme for the bicentennial.

Exactly one year ago today, local Wheeling fans were treated to both Denver & Rio Grande Western Tunnel Motors leading Brewster-Willard train 237 west on the Brewster Sub in perfect evening sun. Both units had been assigned to the train amidst unsatisfactory weather all week, but Mother Nature finally graced Northern Ohio with abundant sunshine that Saturday. Great company, an enthusiastic crew, and plenty of slow orders to make chasing a breeze resulted in one of the best days I've ever had on the Wheeling. The train is seen here working westbound approaching Orrville, Ohio, passing part of the mostly removed telegraph line. Only a few days later, the pair was split apart and both units haven't been together since. With the 5413's prime mover scheduled to be replaced, hopefully we'll see something like this again soon.

Autumn is just beginning, but the bright oranges, yellows and reds are already showing their beauty.

Norfolk Southern Chicago-bound intermodal train No. 233 crosses over the Ohio River in Kenova, West Virginia.

she'll get you every time

February 22, 2010, and the water cycle is in full effect. Rain and warmer temps are causing the snow to revert to a semi-gaseous form, causing a haze of fog as a loaded Ohio Central coal train rolls north a few miles north of Zanesville, Ohio.

 

Back in the day, I would have called this a GLT, Glouster Turn, because it has the nice neat loaf of coal in the gons behind the power, but I think the folks at G&W had changed the symbol to BOT by then. I never bothered to listen to the scanner back then, so I don't know. If saw a train from the office window, I knew it was train time. And if the power/weather/light was good, it was lunchtime too.

The most Ohio thing I saw

One of the best pieces of photography-related advice I have heard of late is to avoid shooting for social media. This means to shoot what you like, rather than what you think will be popular.

 

I took it.

Team spirit on a window in Dunkirk, OH. Why the bear is posing like Burt Reynolds in Cosmopolitan Magazine is anyone's guess.
