On It's way from Minehead and about to enter Washford station. This engine was introduced in 1964, only 56 were built and was out of service by the end of 1969. On this occasion there are two engines pulling the train on it's journey to Bishops Lydeard.
This has to be one of the most photographed engines at the Colorado Railroad Museum, in Golden, CO. I took my HRD version last December and decided to place it into a scene in which the deisel might have been found.
I masked out the noisy background and played around with its exposure, color balance, and sharpness. Then I chose a photo I took near Moab, Utah, to serve as a background.
After compositing the photos I adjusted the overall exposure and saturation. Then I "turned on" the headlights.
These engines powered the California Zephyr and the Rio Grande Zephyr. The D&RGW retired the diesel units in 1984. Southern Pacific Lines donated them to the musem in 1996.
Well, one of them anyway. This is one of the Gardner diesel engines at the lighthouse at Nash Point in South Wales. You can read more about this engine and its sister on my blog:
