Conrail C40-8W 6231 and Conrail Leasing C30-7 538 had train CCPI entering Allentown yard before heading west to Conway in 1996.
The CCPI (Chemical Coast to Pittsburgh) train ran between Port Reading, NJ and Conway, PA.
After meeting a coal train while parked in the siding, the DVROM is back on the move at American Fork, Utah on Aug. 14, 1994.
A Proctor Roadswitch crew eases a steaming train of pellets past the yard office on their way to Dock 6.
Oh how I love backlighting. I wasn’t really sure about this scene, but when I saw the light creep through the scraggly trees and the bright orange in the leaves, I couldn’t look away!
Canon 5D IV, 16-35 f/4L, Lee big stopper, Lee landscape polarizer, Camera Raw, Photoshop. Processed from 4 images to manage movement in the water vs movement in the leaves and to manage exposure.
"Wild Horses couldn't drag me away" from the Rolling Stones song, this wild horse off the Pony Express Trail in Utah...descendant of a horse lost or escaped in the 1800's in the American Wild West. Cool herd we ran across on a photo trip.
Eve though it's essentially a water level route, the hills in this area didn't give the railroad much room to move. Lots of curves and several grades are found throughout the line south of Canton. South of Beloit, Iowa, the D&I starts climbing upgrade with loads for Sioux City. The Big Sioux River is just out of the picture to the left.
We're getting a heat wave now so I took Benni to the park at sundown yesterday for a cool walk and some rolling on the grass. She was thrilled to find this clover which must smell good judging by her behavior.
(Sorry to have been gone - the last few days my right thumb, the computer mouse-holding thumb has been super painful. I think too much time on the internet these sluggy days so I've had to back off. I'll try to comment on one picture for each of my Flickr friends daily, but have to scale back from an hour of commenting. It seems a bit better from going off the last few days.)
North of Elliot Lake, I embarked on a long 14 km hike.
It had rained just before I arrived and low laying clouds remained moving through the region.
Thankfully, not high rolling waves but I guess they are rolling inwards towards the beach!

This is a rolling cloud which I photographed last Summer. It came over the sea and passed over the houses within minutes. The wind was tremendous causing damage to rooves and gardens. A huge thunderstorm ensued. It was very calm outside and light when I took this, but within minutes it was as dark as night.

Back in September 2014, CP 299 rolls past the historic depot in Brookfield Wisconsin with a SD40-2, SD60, and a SD30ECO.
Looking from Beatenberg across the Thunersee toward Spiez. The sun was peaking through the clouds with the mountains beyond. Loved this scene.
Best,

This is a repost, I worked on it a bit. C&NW F3 212 rolls past the Chaska MN. depot at a good pace heading for Cedar Lake yard in Minneapolis. May 1976.
Accidentally left a yellow filter on the lens, while using color film. I still like how it turned out though

There are endless compositions to take at the top of lush green east bay rolling hills. The sunset burn was predicted by BAPA forecast service.
This scene with the hills really stood out to me. Thank you so much for all your comments.

Finally I did a road trip again after being locked down for almost 4 months at home. I went to Palouse for its classic rolling hills with wheat field. This place is truly magical especially in the golden hours when the hills are lit up by the low angle sun light. The light and shadows on the hills are just amazing to photograph. Love this place.
It seems like Tombstone territorial park is the top priority for many photographers in visiting the Yukon Teritory (and with good reason to be fair), but I’m a big believer that there is a lot more in the territory to see beyond Tombstone.
When my friend and I and I landed in the Yukon, after considerable delays and challenges, our first stop was Kluane National Park. We arrived only minutes before sunset and immediately took off down the highway looking for scenes of interest. Much of the park was covered in thick clouds, but for some limited areas in the front range, that cloud would break like waves against the towering, snow-covered, mountains.
Hope you enjoy!
Union Pacific 4-6-6-4 'Challenger' No. 3985 pulls a 19-car passenger train through Roy, Utah the morning of May 28, 1994.
Did I time travel to the 90s for this shot? Maybe, maybe not. Reality is this is in 2024. Today the CSRM pulled 6819 out of the shops for one of its first runs in well over ten years, and although there was no announcement my friends and I had found out about it. With this knowledge we raced down to the CSRM to get our photos of it running. After making it to their turn around point at Baths Siding, the 6819 was on point for the second time tonight and although this shot makes it look like it's going fifty on a mainline, it was only going around fifteen miles per hour on what was formerly the SP's Isleton Branch.
