Remarks & Notes

Early morning at "Mikhailovsky GOK" iron quarry. After previous rainy day at that morning mist evaporates from the depths of the pit... But quarry works around the clock. Interruptions at work make only during blasting. The action take place on "Mikhailovsky Mining and Processing Integrated Works" ("Mikhailovsky GOK") near Zheleznogorsk city in Kursk Magnetic Anomaly, a territory highly rich in iron ores. The Kursk Magnetic Anomaly is recognized as the largest magnetic ore anomaly on the Earth. "Mikhailovsky GOK" is one of the largest iron quarry in the world.

A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
