July Train Photo Of The Month
Well Happy Fourth Of July everyone.
this month is an open month anything goes
Submissions close on the 24th
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Ben Franklin
People who need a foot up their Ass affect the lives of many. There is still no cure for someone who needs a foot up their Ass, except a foot up their Ass
I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.

Thats One of the reason I love Amtrak. They Reuse B40-8W's, which were most likely ex Santa Fe's

That's actually a P32-8WH (or Dash 8-32BWH), one of 20 that were built specifically for Amtrak.

A quartet of ES44DC's lead westbound through Cache Creek valley as the sunrise behind the mountains illuminates the underside of departing storm clouds.

Thank You. It's also a lucky one.

I had stopped just to shoot that awesome sunrise/windmills/cloud/mountain/RR tracks combination. I had just finshed cleaning and screwing the grad filter on the lens when the train came around the corner, completing the scene.

Nice timing, eh?
