Couldn't be closer because of acrophobia. Those three guys were using ropes to protect themselves when they were trying to look downwards.
CSX SD40-3 4035 and GP38-3 2063 work on switching cars in Taft yard on a gloomy and wet July evening.
CSX P001 switches off the main and onto the Taft yard lead as they arrive for an hour long visit at the yard.
They would proceed to visit Rands yard, Pecan yard and later arrive at Jacksonville, FL finishing their 3 day tour of CSX rails in Florida.
The hike to Taft Point is my favorite. The parking lot is on Glacier Point Road. It is 2.2 miles round trip hike. It is great because there is a reward at the end . Beautiful views of the valley , El Capitan , Yosemite Falls. I read in a description of the hazards of the dropoff at Talf Point as follows" a fall from Taft Point would not be just fatal, but squish-you-like-a-bug fatal. The fall is so far that your friends , waving their teary goodbyes and hoping you didn't have the only set of car keys, would lose sight of you before you reached the ground. So be careful." For sure!!!!

This will be the last time I buy Rollei RPX 25 film. It's the third roll in a row that has manufacturing defects. I cleaned it up as best as I could, but you can still see the vertical lines in the lower part of the picture.

CSX ES40DC 5500, the Spirit of Cincinnati, sits in Taft yard south of Orlando, FL with GP40-2 6432.
The Spirit of Cincinnati was held captive here in yard duty for a good month or two.
We hit heavy rain as we headed west from Revelstoke but it didn't deter us from stopping here for this photo of a westbound container train.

A kettle of juvenile Red-Tailed Hawks survey their surroundings in the agriculture fields of Kern County.
Taft Beach is peculiar in that because of the wind and tides it collects driftwood like nowhere else on the Oregon coast. Visitors to this beach arrange the driftwood in interesting ways sometimes creating Flintstone like dwellings.
