A moment of low winter sun, a small island and a passing boat. That's all it takes.
When we are doing nothing in particular, it is then that we are living through all our being. Will is suspended, but nature and time are always active; and if our life is no longer our work, the work goes on nonetheless. With us, without us, or in spite of us, our existence travels through its appointed phases.
-- Henri Frédéric Amiel
This 28-300mm lense really let's you capture some very different scenes of the same train without moving an inch. Having shared the long telephoto versions already here is the wide version that captures the full scene with your eyes now drawn to the old wooden elevator as a prop instead of the signals.
This is the westbound Montana Rail Link 'night gas' train behind SD70ACes 4406 and 4408 (both built new for the road in Apr. 2014) leading a trainload of refined petroleum products from Missoula to Thompson Falls as they pass the west end of the 11,360 ft siding and cross Central Ave. at MP 6.4 on the 4th Sub Mainline.
These railfan favorite gas trains are the only trains on this end of the railroad anymore that are guaranteed to run with blue power. Strictly an intra-MRL operation, these trains came into being in 1995 when a gap was created in the 40 yr old and 531 mile long Yellowstone Pipeline when the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribe chose not to renew the pipeline company's lease of 21 miles of right of way across their Flathead Indian Reservation. To learn about how and why this came about this article may be of interest: www.bigskywords.com/montana-blog/the-yellowstone-pipeline...

These are the first pictures of my trip to Hamburg - there was so much to see! I was experimenting with the exposure times a lot and this is what came out at the end. Don't forget to check out my other picture as well: Waiting for the train!
Yet another shot from the photo walk with Ian RZ68. The tones of this one are nice.
A shot I have not done before of trains passing at Weybourne, with a very short train in platform 1 in the form of rail bus E79960 meeting Standard Tank 80080 as it arrives from Holt. Both machines that had short service careers with BR, resurrected and providing delight in the 21st century. The rail bus is making a short visit back from the Ribble Steam Railway in Preston where it is on loan. Owned by the NNR but too small to handle the current passenger numbers the line sees during the summer season, as has been demonstrated while it has been back. Though it will be running mid-week until 27th June, next Friday, before going back north.
A more distant view of another rainstorm - its rear end as the highway led me further eastward across the flat plains towards Wagga Wagga. The sun was already breaking through overhead.
Passing Stoke Hammond, 86259 Les Ross leads 1Z35 Liverpool South Parkway to Wembley Central, transporting Liverpool fans to the League Cup final.
I can't find that I uploaded this image anywhere?! I seem to have forgotten it from the thousands and milions of photos I have! It's from last year, but it is the December picture of my 2013 calendar.
