Father’s Day Behind the Scenes Tour-<\/a><\/p>\n

Night Photo Shoot- June 15th- SOLD OUT!<\/h3>\n

Join the CT Trolley Museum for our 2024 Night photo shoot. In an effort to add some variety to our night photo shoots, we’re continuing to have different photographers run the event. This year’s Connecticut Trolley Museum night photo shoot is being led by Tom Nanos of Lebanon, CT. Tom is a widely published author and photographer and has decades of experience photographing the railroading scene after dark, and has run the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum’s night shoot in Willimantic for the past 20 years. The event will give photographers opportunities to photograph using ambient light through dusk, and as things get darker, we will augment the available lighting with LED constant lighting, as well as studio strobes. Photographers will only need to bring their camera, a cable release\/remote shutter trigger and a tripod.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n
