can be understood as 'railwaymen, standing', or 'railwaymen, arise'.
It is about my colleagues posing full length in their working clothes, when and where I find them. This endeavour has to happen in the in-between moments, I have seconds to grab a shot : they are working, so am I. Quite a few are below par, by many metrics, but it is more about them than about aesthetics. These are the people I see, the people I work with.
The plan is to publish a book, but it is very much a plan, far from realisation.
For now, you can follow my progress in this album.

Cheers!

Good, posting the plan here is like...signing your name in wet cement. It may come back to haunt you, but it is committed.
I have been thinking about your plan, and my kibitzing of it (and of another rffer bringing up August Sander re your work images, which had occurred to me as well, though that could be a millstone round your neck the size of the Sphinx), etc.--but now it seems to me the book will be a real gift for your colleagues, and I applaud you for doing it for them/your way.
We can talk about the companion volume(s) later... ;-)

Thank you Robert.
I don't know about the august Sander being a millstone. A very flattering comparison.
But the full length portrait goes back way further. I think Sander tried to apply the craft of royal and aristocratic portraiture to a modern, democratic subject. I am happy to add a few stones to that road.
