Hi everyone, Here are five photos from the Moss E. Hulsey collection taken by Mike Bledsoe of Bledsoe Rail Slides, now Bledsoe Rail Products. Mike was one of the first slide vendors I purchased from, and played a significant role in developing my appetite for quality railroad photos. Mike (and his son Steven) moved to Alabama in the mid 90's, but recently relocated bacck to Texas. Mike was very heavy into Santa Fe in the early 90's when the Santa Fe red and silver warbonnet made its comeback, and caught several of these units when the paint was still fresh and clean. Sadly, after only two years, the paint on some of these units is already flaking off. If any of you are familiar with or Mike Bledsoe's Bledsoe Rail Slides business, it is now Bledsoe Rail Products. He does still have some stock left as I saw him at a Ft. Worth, TX train show on May 30th. Check his photo credits page for details. Enjoy! |
