Biographical Sketch Thomas W. Solomon, May 27, 1915--May 13, 1988, was a resident of Headland, AL, and according to his Dothan Eagle obituary of May 14, 1988, a "well known railroad artist and train enthusiast." Solomon served as a draftsman with the Atlantic Coast Line then with the Florida East Coast Railroad. He was a member of the Headland United Methodist Church.
Scope/Content Consists of Solomon's photographic negatives, transparent positives, and prints of railroading in the Southeastern US, particularly the Wiregrass.

The photos cover the Alabama Midland Railway, Amtrak, Apalachicola and St. Andrew's Bay Railway, Apalachicola Northern, Atlantic Coast Line, Bay Line, Central of Georgia, L&N, Plant System, Seaboard Atlantic Line, Southern Railway, and others.
