About the author

David Kahler was born in 1937, spending his formative years in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, at the junction of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Wilmington Northern Branch of the Reading Railroad. In 1951, he began photographing the railroad environment in the Keystone State with a camera borrowed from his aunt. Today, he continues his passion for trains and the environment by photographing the decaying remains of historic railroads and industrial sites found in North Carolina, northeastern Pennsylvania, and northeastern Maine.
