It's a part of Los Angeles that is now gone."They thought I was interested in the trains but it was their stories, their smiles and my respect for them that kept me coming back."End of the Line: Railroad Tramps of the Los Angeles Freight Yards is a collection of John's black and white, candid, full frame, available light photographs.

Printed on heavy 100 lb. coated stock the photographs faithfully capture all the beauty found in John's original silver gelatin prints.
