Winter Rails
It had been snowing for a while and there was just enough accumulation to give everything a light cover without burying it. I liked how the rails, ties and ballast was covered just enough to give them a different look but not so much that you don't know what you are seeing. The view is from the Bort Road bridge near North East, Pennsylvania, on the tracks of the CSX Erie West Subdivision. Not longer after I made this image, an eastbound auto rack train came along and turned the snow on the rails into liquid.
