These 31 11x14 inch black-and-white images were taken by photographer Jesse Pyrant Andrews on November 19, 2010 during a train trip from New York City to Lynchburg, Virginia. Chiefly taken from the windows of the moving train, the images capture overpasses, traffic, graffiti, residential neighborhoods, train stations, and other urban landscapes. A few shots focus on train passengers and there is one of a railroad worker on the tracks, as well as the photographer's self-portrait.
Many of these images were digitized and are featured on the Duke Digital Collections website.
