A few weeks ago, work took me to our Ely Nevada store. Heading west on I80 out of Salt Lake, one turns south on 93 in Wendover to get to Ely. About half way between Wendover and Ely is a small abandoned motel that was once the Schellbourne Station (named after an actual stop on the Pony Express route).
The sheer remoteness of the ruins have left them in rather good shape, and I couldn’t resist going back for a photo session. I find abandoned places like this quite intriguing for photography… here are a few of the shots I took that day.

You know it's abandoned when the only paint it's seen, in decades, is graffiti.

I've seen railroad cars where the entire sides have been graffitied to about 8' with multicolored, complex designs. It must take dozens of cans of paint, maybe more and time, lots of time. That's an area where model railroad enthusiasts differ, some prefer pristine rolling stock and others want a more "real" look with rust, dirt and graffiti.

I like to mix things up. Rolling stock used to be far more interesting back in the day. Today consists are made up of intermodal shipping containers and chemical tankers, and hard sided autohaulers.
Gone are the wooden boxcars, caboose, flatbed cars with mixed freight, and branded cars for specific products….The Gear...

A GM-EMD E-9. Not a freight, but still a beauty. UP colors are some of the best.

Santa Fe's paint scheme was very nice too. An E6 unit.

Flatbed cars with freshly painted John Deere tractors are one of my favorites.

@aprazer402 and @SeleniumFalcon -- youse guyses might enjoy the photos of a fellow I "follow" on Flikr: He has lots of his own (AFAIK) photos of Mid-Atlantic trains (in MD, VA, and PA, mostly) past & present, as well as some cool (to me) vintage Mid-Atlantic airport photos. My kinda stuff -- maybe yours, too.

Speaking of trains... way back in the late 60's just outside of town, three teen hooligans were riding around dropping firecrackers from overpasses by the engine of a slow moving freight train. We'd race to the next overpass and drop more. Next overpass they responded by throwing lit flares at us.
