This website was created from a copy of passcarphotos.info which was originally saved on April 26, 2018. The website was originally created and managed by J.M. LaBODA who passed away in early 2018. When his website disappeared this copy was erected to keep the massive amount of information he collected available to all. We are also working to recover his other two websites: interurbancarphotos.info and pcccarphotos.info

Due to many of the photographs linking to external websites, not all of the links will continue to work as time goes on. A full offline copy of this website can be downloaded here: passcarphotos.zip

PASSENGER CAR PHOTO INDEX - GREAT NORTHERN 1 - 999




GREAT NORTHERN 1 - 999

UPDATED WITH 14 NEW LINKS ADDED.

I cannot promise you that all links will remain working since I have no control over this.  To contact me my email address is jmlaboda[at]passcarphotos.info. 

Recommended sites:
If you are interested in the Great Northern I highly recommend you checking out these additional site.  There is a wealth of information that can be gleaned... well worth the time to look around.
  • The Great Northern Railway list at Yahoo! Groups.  This list is a great source of information on all aspects of the road.
  • The Great Northern Railway Historical Society is dedicated to preserving the history of the line.
  • The GNRHS & NPRHA Joint Archives contains a huge number of photographs and paper material related to the GN, including many of the passenger car shots listed here in.
  • The Great Northern Empire site, has extensive information and great photo coverage of surviving GN equipment.  I highly recommend visiting this site if you are looking for information on equipment for this line.
  • The Great Northern Railway Page is another great site with a large amount of material that is not only interesting but also educational.  Like to cook?  There is even a section dealing with recipes used by the GN.


     
         		 Some important changes were recently made at Flickr.com that affects how a person views images and I felt it is important enough of a change to mention it here.  In the past clicking on an image or right clicking on an image provided for larger sizes to be chosen, and, as it is with the vast majority of shots linked to from this website, a considerably larger image could be seen.  Now left clicking on the download icon (shown at left) in the lower right corner of the screen will bring up the available sizes for all images, all one has to do now is to choose the size and it will load.  I hope that this info will help in viewing images at Flickr.
