Whitehorse Mountain, dressed in her snow cap and winter glaciers. Toned for high key to emphasize light and dark playing on her snow fields.
Santa Fe's e/b "Harbor Train", the X-3362E rounds the corner into Summit, CA on Nov. 1, 1970. Two GP35's lead two GP30's and a pair of SD24's has the rear position. Apparently, one or more of the bell-ringers is not loading or off-line as there is a surprise coming.

Just up the road from White Haven Tunnel, RBMN #3054 leads NRFF past the lone signal at MP 147 near Glen Summit, Pennsylvania.
At the top of Broad Pass lies appropriately named Summit Lake. The Alaska Railroad's north freight glides by at 0303 in the morning as they make their way to Fairbanks.
We are at a mind-boggling 13,000 feet. Six miles from the Bolivian border and in the heart of El Alto Loa, FCAB train crests the summit at Ascotan and begins its arduous decent towards Calama. 210 is one of 2 scheduled trains from the Bolivian interchange at Ollagüe and handles lead, silver, and zinc concentrate bound for Mejillones, Chile. The leader is FCAB #2501, an ex-Tren a las Nubes (Argentina) GT22CU tunnel motor built on a GP40 frame, and the only one of its kind on the roster.
The towering Volcán Cerro Tomasamil can be behind 2501, peaking at a ridiculous 19,324 feet and El Volcán Cañapa can be seen to its right at matching 19,357ft, both mountains standing on the Bolivian side of the border. The Ascotan Salt flat dominates the sprawling valley beneath. The Andes peak at over 21,000 feet in this region and are among some of the tallest mountains on Earth
The sprint up the hill to capture this photo was a dangerous endeavor at 2 ½ miles above sea level. We endured through an array of elevation sickness symptoms as we pushed ourselves to the physical limit in pursuit of this divine train. Traveling 5,500 miles and battling some of the most insane topography on planet earth truly gives a respect for the dedication that this hobby we call ‘railfanning’ requires

The NW summit of Waddington has a false summit as well as a true summit. The false summit sits just to the south of the NW summit at the head of Angel Glacier, across a small saddle. In this photo from the true summit of Wadd an American climber is traversing from the NW summit over the saddle to the false summit.
Image of our camp site on the summit of Mt Bogong during a recent back country ski trip. A high pressure system right over the Alpine National Park meant we had 5 days of perfect weather which provided us with the rare opportunity to strike camp on the very top of Victoria's highest mountain.
This building has had a lot of names in it's short history (construction finished 2006): Changfeng Building, Summit City, Cloud Nine Mall (current), Longemont Rennaissance Hotel (current).
A mixed use structure, consisting of a shopping mall and a hotel tower. The hotel tower is 238 m tall, it's edges are beautiful illuminated at night. View on a black background.

This was taken going to two medicine on Hwy 2, this was a rest stop with a great view. The mountain is called Summit Mountain @ 8770 foot.
This eastbound UP stack train is at the summit of Wyoming's Sherman Hill, topping out at 8,015 feet above sea level.
NJ Transit Arrow III car 1375 is the lead unit on a four-car Gladstone Branch train seen stopped at Summit Station. This is the train's last stop on the Morristown Line infrastructure, after which it will diverge onto the branch to Somerset County.
At last I reach the summit of Glas Tulaichean, after just over 2 hours of solid climbing. The low clouds unfortunately obscure any view I would have but do give a mysterious feel around the Trig Point that marks the summit.
Glas Tulaichean is my 5th Munro of the season and the 28th in total, bringing me to a Munro completion rate of near enough 10%. The mountain stands at 1051 meters (3448 feet) and is the last one I will do as I have now moved away from Scotland and back to my roots in South Yorkshire as the pull of the Grandchildren was just too strong.
Looking down at Uniontown Pa.
Notes, comments, faves and corrective criticism are always appreciated!!! Thank you in advance! =-)
Moonlit summit.
Staring across the flat, lochan studded expanse of Rannoch Moor. The large body of water stretching along the left hand side is the Blackwater Reservoir.
Orion above my right shoulder, the twin stars Castor & Pollux in Gemini my star sign far left of frame and the red giant Aldebaran in the 'V' of Taurus top right.
The sight of snow twinkling in the moonlight never ceases to thrill me.
UP 3188 East hits the grade crossing at Summit as darkness begins to settle in. Trailing the SD40-2 is a GP30B and DRGW SD45 5327 in this view from sometime in early 1977.
My first solo wild camping trip was a great success capturing a great sunrise & sunset! The scene's i was treated to at the summit were typical Lakes, bare rock and a horizon line of endless hills and mountains.
Place Fell, overlooking Ullswater

Delaware-Lackawanna PO-75 works Ardent Mills at Pocono Summit, picking up grain cars that were dropped off a few days earlier. With its Canadian wide cab clearly identifying its heritage, I liked being able to get it leading a train with it being one of the more unique engines thanks to the cab. 10-22-21

CSXT 378, sporting YN2 colors, leads intermodal train CSX I116 eastbound through Sandpatch, Pennsylvania.
The top of Stob Dearg as seen from the A82. Wasn't really much point in doing a colour image as there was no colour!!! Grey skies and grey rock meant B&W to bring out the textures.
Quite amazing: ibex fawns apparently don't have to learn to climb. Even very young animals can climb the steepest slopes and rocks with complete sure-footedness...
