Fireweed and the Coastal Classic
In my previous post I described my reason for being out this way and having arrived at Portage at 2015 I knew the Coastal would arrive soon. The sun was soon to be obscured by clouds so I decided to move a bit further south where the sun was still shining. I settled on this view of the train exiting the Placer River Valley with my view point towards the Portage Valley. I framed the shot with the Fireweed in full bloom and my luck held with the sun shining until after the train disappeared.
