Remarks & Notes

The YBE51X local is seen returning from Liebovich Steel as it crosses the Rock River bridge in downtown Rockford. After crossing the river they will cut away from the empty bulkhead flats and head north up the KD Line and deliver the tank car to Rock Valley Oil. The bridge I am standing on once belonged to the Burlington and the Illinois Railway until it was converted to a bike path in 2015.

A compilation of my favorite photographs taken from a slightly different point of view, images that catch your eye right from the thumbnail. These aren't your typical 3/4 wedgie aim & shoot pix, but well executed compositions, truly works of art.
