Rolling Into Dungannon
Like most railroad lines, the Clinchfield has a number of signature locations that almost everyone knows. This shot at Osborne's Curve in Dungannon, Virginia is most definitely one of those locations. So named for L.G. Osborne's Store, which is located just beyond the barn, this historic spot has seen the evolution of the railroads which run this line, including the Santa Train. I love the classic weathered barn, the mountains, and the Clinch river which all come together to give this scene a classic feel of the natural and rugged beauty of Appalachia.
The discerning eye will note that I *creatively* removed a few vehicles from the foreground to give this otherwise natural scene an uncluttered look. We have the technology, and I wanted a certain feel, so I exercised a little photographer's discretion.
