There's no mountain train. I'm running low on images that I think are interesting so I just stuck these three together to make one..:) I know, I've been watching too much Creative Live.com. The train is the newest image. I starting taking my camera everywhere in hopes of getting a good shot and when I was coming home Yesterday, I spotted this train headed north coming out of Mexico and pulled over to take the shot.
About 2 months ago, I told the Parks Foundation I would lead a hike along Barton Creek Greenbelt on National Park Day. I figured March, central Texas, Spring weather...Tomorrow at 9 am it will be 39 degrees..:)) Imagine my surprise. I know, it'll be fine after the first mile..;)
This image is a little day glow. It got away from me some how.
Canadian National Railway
Image taken from within a darkened tunneled area, behind this railroad crossing gate.
There was delay due to a railway switchman making a track switch.
If you look closely at the engine you may notice the door is open.

Not sure what train or transfer this might have been, but this solid set of WC SD45s was working Norfolk Southern's Colehour Yard in Hammond, IN on 13 May 2001, a few months before the CN acquisition was completed in October.
6603 was reportedly the former ATSF 5332.
This is my only shot of WC power doing something other than sitting around.
Bland CSX train Q296 with about a thousand autoracks blasts under the Pennsy-era signals at MP 279, just east of downtown Indianapolis. Just look at that non-matching yellow touch up paint on the handrails. Classy!
The Brocken is a hill in the north of Germany. Because of the location in the North German lowlands, there is a special climate. So in winter, when the sun is shining, it’s an amazing place for tourists. You can ride with the steam train in 90 minutes from Wernigerode up on the top of the Brocken. Also the ride on the train through the landscape is spectacular.
CSX Waycross, GA - to - Fernandina Beach, FL local train A772 rolls east through Yulee, FL on 14 May 1994. The eclectic mix of former Chessie and Seaboard Coast Line power was common at this time but didn't last much longer after this shot was taken.
This former SAL line is now operated by the First Coast Railroad, a G&W clone.
Whistler, BC
Finally a day with sunlight. No luck finding any wildlife but at least I was not hit by a train.
Looks like CSX U36B #5797 (former SCL 1847) never quite made a complete transition to the Blue & Gray.
Seen here working ex-L&N Siebert yard at Mobile, AL on 13 February 1993 with GE MATE #5204 (former SCL 3204).
The 5797 later went to TTI.
I was bemoaning the fact that I've never been in the right place at the right time to photograph this train. Then, there it was, racing to Sheringham. It's the North Norfolk Railway, known as the Poppy Line. Straight from the camera
A couple old train cars - I think one named "Nora" aligned at an old service shack - the bright day took away from the nastiness of the age but brought out the colors in the sky and sage!
and 2 stars in the night sky
I am experimenting with different cameras
Too habituated to my SLR Nikon....
This Kodak brings a poetic shift to my recent photos...
North Bound CSX 'Tropicana Juice Train' on the James River Bridge at Richmond, VA.
This train brings the Juice everyday from Florida to New Jersey.
An early morning commuter train heads into the station in Newcastle, Australia, in a photo now dated by the passage of time. The train line has been torn up, the corridor turned over to developers, and trams now run on the adjacent streets. It's called progress, but I have other words for this kind of urban vandalism and conversion of public assets to private commercial advantage.
Located here in Colorado at Trout lake. In 1891 the railroad track went around the lake in preparation for the steep climb up Lizard Head Pass.
Nella splendida cornice dei Monti Tatra, una doppia di 131 delle ZSSK Cargo di produzione Škoda 1980 è impegnata con un convoglio omogeneo di carri E provenienti dal confine ucraino e diretti all'acciaieria ArcelorMittal di Ostrava (Rep. Ceca).
