Hole in the file on this one. Hard to avoid blow outs on stainless in the morning light..

I bought these negatives off eBay back in 2009-2011, shared them online now they are everywhere. Ralph Hallock and Dick Kindig images

Best E5 in any scale. Worth the effort.

Thanks for posting the shots of your model scene, Erik. I don't recall seeing these particular shots before. When you say that there is a "hole in the file", are you talking about the glare on the nose? I wouldn't have thought anything was wrong with the shot.

And, wow, that train order shot is spectacular -- kudos to the photographer and thanks to you for sharing. Yes, an E5 in 1:1 scale is hard to beat
