Photo Run-[Beneath]
A pet peeve of mine with the modern railroad excursion business is that no one seems to do photo stops anymore. I suspect insurance is to blame (in its role as the bane of all fun railroad activities), but I can't be the only photographer/railfan who never rides excursions because I want to photograph them instead.
Though I would have ridden for the shop tour alone, participating in a well-managed photo run-by was a highlight of the AEM-7 Farewell Excursion. Amtrak's shown that it's possible to quickly and safely corral a few hundred railfans in and out of a train - please, give it a shot, #611!
