Ridin' the Rails

BITHBOX # 126

Johnny Cash "Ridin' The Rails"

 

The locomotive featured above is a BNSF running a light engine movement. However, just like Johnny says "that lonesome whistle cutting through the night" is still a sound to be treasured every day and night as the freights roll through the neighbourhood - though now it is a lonesome horn blowing loud. Likewise "it was awfully important that when I waved at the engineer, he waved back at me"....and mostly they still do, including on this occasion : )

 

I'll add that the locomotive (4650) is actually travelling away from me in this shot.
