AWESOME PHOTO! There isn't any better place to take a picture of a train, I think, then right at that location.
|
Beautiful photo.
|
Very nice shot. That would make a nice poster.
|
Great shot! That is what Big Ten is all about.

Who says you have to shoot outside the box to get a great photo?
Nicely captured!
|
Super photo & Location. I don't think you could have captured it any better.

Congrats on a awesome shot. Beautiful. :)
|
Wow! You got the whole thing in one image. Sure, the terrain helps, and the railroad cooperated, but you did it. Congrats.
|
Great photo. Is this the curve that has the coal hoppers welded to a section of rail or is that somewhere else??

David: Question For you I notice in the fore ground there are 2 sets of tracks but thru the rest of the shot I only see 1... is there a switch somewhere to go that siding track???
|
Judging from the signals,l it looks like the switch may be beneath the 5th or 6th unit
|
Chuck, you're correct about the switch location. Bulldog, yep, this is it. You can just barely make out the hoppers hiding behind the tree line in the middle left of the photo. Great shot, Dave.

I like this very concentrated shot of a long freight train.
You don't have to look twice at this picture to capture its message.
One of my preferred shots at RP ! Great ! :-)
|
Amazing shot! One of my all-time favorites!
|
It's amazing how far into the distance you can see from this height. Looks like a good 50 miles or so. Incredible photo.
