The Glenfinnan Viaduct is a railway viaduct on the West Highland Line in Glenfinnan, Inverness-shire, Scotland, built from 1897 to 1901. Located at the top of Loch Shiel in the West Scottish Highlands, the viaduct overlooks the Glenfinnan Monument and the waters of Loch Shiel.
My advice if you want to get this shot is get there early, it gets packed
Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away
Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling it's a holiday
Okay, they ain't trees, plants non the less .

BNSF GP38-2 2083 was leading an eastbound local, waiting in the siding at Cooks WA, as a westbound freight with three C44-9Ws passed by. Both parent roads represented in this meet back on Dec 12 2021, with the green Geep and Warbonnet Dash-9. #ArtGrossPhotography #BNSF #SP&S #BNSFFallbridgeSub #ColumbiaRiver #ColumbiaRiverGorge #WashingtonState #BurlingtonNorthern #Trains #Railroads #Railroadphotography #trains_worldwide #railfanning #daily_crossing #trainspotting #railsupremacy #everything_transport #diesel_locomotive_shop #west_coast_rail #trainsofpnw #pnw #train_nerds #trb_express #railfans_of_instagram #train_explorer #railfannation #railmarkable #newtopographics #documentingspace #lightroom

I go by a poor old farmhouse with its shingles broken and black.
I suppose I've passed it a hundred times, but I always stop for a minute
And look at the house, the tragic house, the house with nobody in it...

975 is one of BNSF's first order of C44-9Ws from 1996, still looking pretty sharp in her original H1 paint scheme trailing an intermodal train along the cliffs at Maryhill WA, on a sunny Feb 13 2022. #BNSF #SP&S #BNSFFallbridgeSub #ColumbiaRiverGorge #ColumbiaRiver #WashingtonState #MaryhillWashington #ArtGrossPhotography #Trains #Railroads #Railroadphotography #railfanning #trains_worldwide #railfanning #daily_crossing #trainspotting #railsupremacy #everything_transport #diesel_locomotive_shop #west_coast_rail #trainsofpnw #pnw #train_nerds #trb_express #railfans_of_instagram #train_explorer #railfannation #railmarkable #lightroom

Dusk is quickly approaching as NS KC32 (at the time of this photo, now called as NS AVR01 in current times), the AVR transfer train, returns back east with their pick up from the Norfolk Southern interchange at Island Avenue Yard on Pittsburgh's northside. The train will jump back onto home rails at CP-BLOOM, about 2 miles further east of the picture here, at CP-PITT.
Once back on home rails the train will venture over to their operations base at the former Baltimore & Ohio (B&O) Glenwood Yard in Pittsburgh's Hazelwood neighborhood. At Glenwood, the train is broken down accordingly for each train that runs on their system day in and day out to ensure the cars get to their proper customer in a quick and orderly fashion.
Today's train is sporting 4 corporate painted engines, all stenciled for Carload Express' Allegheny Valley Railroad (A.V.R.). The first 3 units are former EMD built SD45/45-2's that were rebuilt to SD40-2 standards after their first retirement from their owner railways. The only difference is in internal, as the SD45/45-2's were built with 645E3 twenty-cylinder engine generating 3,600 hp. Upon retirement a large number of the SD45's were being rebuilt to SD40-2 standards with a EMD 16-cylinder 645E3 generating 3,000 horsepower, but keeping the iconic SD45 "flared" carbody.
Getting out of technical's of the engines and back to the picture itself, I have to truly give credit to the revolutionary invention of .RAW file shooting. If it wasn't for me shooting so, this file would have been a complete and utter loss being it was so dark and badly botched. A tedious amount of effort in Photoshop RAW editor and photoshop itself brought this photo back to life and so evenly balanced.
It still stands to this day as one of my best shots I've taken and taught me well to never count a photo out if the initial exposure was botched. All brought to you by the 3 letters of R, A and W.

About this Photo: Taken during my recent business trip to northeast Oklahoma. This is a photo of a series of train engines about to load several box cars from a local grain company in Muskogee, Oklahoma.
Trains are fascinating to watch, and listen to. The railroads played a major role in the development of the United States during a large part of the 19th and 20th centuries. American history is filled with stories, lore and myth about the railroads.

Doing the 7 AM ritual, a pair of Lake Superior & Ishpeming RR crews bring their ex BN U30Cs out of the engine service area at Eagle Mills Yard, Eagle Mills MI, July 29 2005. The set led by 3010 is working a "7 dock" and will take loads down to the ore dock yard, 3006 is working solo on a "7 grizzly", which I think is an Eagle Mills yard job. #ArtGrossPhotography #LakeSuperiorandIshpeming #Michigan #UpperPeninsula #Yooper #Trains #Railroads #Railroadphotography #railfanning #trains_worldwide #railfanning #daily_crossing #trainspotting #railsupremacy #everything_transport #train_nerds #trb_express #railfans_of_instagram #train_explorer #railfannation #railmarkable #newtopographics #allcitiesarebeautiful #industriallandscapephotography #documentingspace #film #kodachrome #oldchromes

Just about 29 years ago, we were out in Northwest Indiana's typically gloomy late winter weather, but the matched set of 3 Conrail B36-7s on a westbound freight and some repurposed South Shore cars brighten things up a bit, Chesterton IN, Mar 1993.
