Optimism at Osman
You know, I’ve only ever shot anything on the NS Bloomington district once - by total accident. Now I can make that twice, and still by accident! What started as a day I just decided to get out of the house and grab of a photo of some equipment in Tolono turned into my first look at the signals on the NS line and a chase to remember.
Thanks to a headsup and some on-the-fly information from some friends, I was able to catch NS D36 flying through the CP at Osman at speed. A short hike alongside the right-of-way off of a small gravel road leads to Osman, home of a very nice set of searchlight signals. With SafeTran signals cropping up al over the line, it begs the question of just how long we'll have to shoot them.
Once the train blew through Osman, it was time to scurry back to the car and try to beat it to Lodge!
