A spot made popular by another local railfan-photographer, I'd passed it (and him) many times but never stopped to photograph a train. The angle is not bad and the shadows caused by the lower Autumn Sun can present a challenge but I think I'll use it more in the future. Southbound 11R |

Yea, yea, yea, I know! It's severely back-lit, but it was a nice day and I had the camera out! |
I timed this one wrong with the shadows, but I like the compressed look of the double-stacks disappearing around the curve. Southbound 228 |

I'd heard radio chatter about 37Q with a "high-wide" but didn't think anything of it. When I saw it at Boyce I almost passed entirely on a shot, only getting a long one between the poles. But as it came across the Main Street crossing I saw something was unusual and lifted the camera again quickly... Southbound 37Q Boyce, VA 4:29pm |
