The LAST frame of K64 from Dwayne's to me....

Evidently thay ran out of the processing chemicals before they could finish my last roll....

Well, let's put it this way.... I had gotten to frame 15 on the roll, and then it was time to send it to Dwayne's to beat the deadline!  How embarassing - the last shots of damned wide nose GE's and EMD's and unit coal trains!  Oh well, at least I can wear my souvenir "End of an Era" tee-shirt that they produced.

Seriously, in answer to the "contest" in the previous couple of posts about how many more frames of that 10 roll inventory of K64 that I'd shoot before the end of the era, the answer is

NONE

I believe we had a winner, Wes Carr of the Great Nation of Texas.  He gets (got) a box of fresh, unused K64 for his troubles.  Actually, he requested a roll for posterity well in advance of the end of K64, and said he'd shoot it in memory of film photography.

Here's a link to my RR Photos Archives Page that shows the actual last sequence of pics taken with my last roll of K64 that was used....
