Fall 2023: Iconic railroad portraits, Gruber gallery, San Joaquin Valley, and more

The Fall issue of Railroad Heritage, our quarterly magazine for members, is highlighted by great feature articles, news, exhibition and collection updates, and more. Our top stories include:

  • An interview with artist Santiago Michalek, who paints striking portraits of “well used” iconic locomotives;
  • Adrienne Evans’ tips and tricks for using Odyssey, our online collection archive that debuted in June;
  • A gallery of classic John Gruber photos showcases the West Rail Corridor of Madison, Wis.;
  • See the winning images of the John Gruber Creative Photography Awards (plus images liked by the judges);
  • Tom Taylor’s photographic essay covers five decades of railfanning in California’s San Joaquin Valley;
  • Betsy Fahlman’s profile of the haunting 1977 lithograph “Subway Tunnel” by August Mosca;
  • Inga Velten’s interview of Sharon Hill, retired CRP&A bookkeeper, about her ongoing support of the Center and train adventures.
