I used my father’s old Yashica 120 TLR several times. It took beautiful pictures.
Same excursion using my point and shoot Kodak “free with a fill-up at BP” 35mm.

Thanks. The N*UW “J” is truly my all-time favorite steamer, and I’m happy I was able to make a small contribution to the Roanoke Museum toward its restoration.

The photos are excellent, especially the night time shots.
Was the red and white stripe paint scheme also called the coast guard scheme?
Welcome to the community! Ive heard a couple of names for that scheme, including the coast guard scheme and the red baron scheme.
It was inspired by the Coast Guard cutter paint scheme but was popularly known among railfans (And probably Jersey Central people as well!) as the “Red Baron” paint scheme. Remember, this was back in the era of “Snoopy And The Red Baron!”
And welcome aboard Michael!

Yes…it was called that along with the Red Baron moniker.
In those days, it was nice seeing different variations of CNJ power

Yes there were multiple RS-3’s and FPSD-37’s (GP-7) in the Red Baron paint. I have photos of FPSD-37 #1527, #1529 and #1524 in red
