I haven't shot this line before today, but I had seen enough photos to recognize this bridge as soon as I saw it. The curve to the south was wide open and we set up at the road to the south and shot him coming around the curve. After this bridge the speed restriction went up a bit, and the former CBQ GP30 let out a bit of a smoke show while throttling up to get up to speed.

BNSF GP39E leads the 428 local southbound on the Beatrice Subdivision outside De Witt, Nebraska, Nebraska, December 23, 2022.

Die wunderschöne Frühlingswiese im Botanischen Garten Erlangen erwacht langsam aber es ist doch erst Anfang Februar. Krokusse und Schneeglöckchen fangen immer so früh an zu blühen, aber sie müssten im Februar noch vom Schnee bedeckt sein,

Clouds were rolling in so we diverted course to get the train one last time with light.

I didn't have enough lead to shoot him at Van Dorn and I didn't want to get stuck behind him through Denton, so I opted to shoot him at Yankee Hill on the South side of town.

Somehow the BN pair has stayed together out of Lincoln for quite some time. Last night, they were the power for the 627 local which shuttles cars from Lincoln to Aurora and back.

We started the chase at Emerald.

The shot is a lot better with the elevator at Hoag in the background but this is what you get with seconds to prepare.

At Yankee Hill, he was flying, but an unplanned meet at Berks helped us beat him there with minutes to spare.

We got back in front of the local and headed to De Witt. Sam and I stopped to shoot him going past the old elevator pictured here on the north side of town. Ryan and Jamie, who had shown up to chase along with us before the train left Crete, went in to town to shoot it going past the other elevator to the south. Unbeknownst to them, that elevator had been demolished in 2021, and they made barely made it back here in time to get a shot off.

Thanks to some rally car-like driving on some gravel roads, we beat them to Seward by a couple minutes and found a nice shot across a very green field.
