Thirty-nine years ago this week in Los Angeles, Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated. A funeral train carried his body from New York City to Washington, D.C. In RFK Funeral Train, Paul Fusco documents the funeral train procession. Despite the hot weather, hundreds of thousands of people stood along the train tracks waiting to pay their respects.

In the end, there are two things that give you a real buzz. There’s the photograph that you take on the street, where everything works and you are delighted with the image. It may not be published, but are happy. Then there’s the situation where you are involved in a news event, and you get a photograph that sums up the event totally and gets published.
