UP 3936 and 2 other UP units lead NS train 23K across the Portage Bridge in Letchworth State Park on 4/10/2010.
About 4000 feet up with 200mm lens. This Airbus 340 was on takeoff and turned into the setting sun for that golden glow.
EB NS Train 22G blasts through Oxford, AL with the Western Pacific Heritage Unit leading the way for Atlanta.

A walk around the meadows but on this occasion the sun was out! All taken using the Sony A99 with Sigma Art 35 and using filters in front to maximise exposure in the compositions - I hope! Squatting in a ditch and looking up with this one.
I made a run after church and had reasonably good luck for as little time as I spent at it. Particularly the Osky job.
I had originally thought this was the switcher and then it just kept going, at that point I figured they'd probably go for Osky given the cars.
My view on the Erasmus bridge in Rotterdam (NL)
... and a winner in 500x500 contest nr.5!
UP 3094 leads a double stack train past the handiwork of the UP earlier this summer when they put about 20+ cars of manifest on the ground here at Loring including 6 haz-mat tankers. We are now a couple months removed from that and the pile of freight cars remains right where the derailment contractor left them.
It's a pity that they didn't wipe out a few more trees here. It would be a pretty neat shot if about 3-4 of the big cottonwoods that are here ceased to exist. As a matter of fact, the whole curve at Krieder is about fully overgrown to the point that it might not be a decent photo spot much longer.
my bargain 135mm f2.8 lens picked up at a car boot sale in Cromer for £2 back in the summer just keeps performing...
Looking up valley from West Slaithwaite towards Marsden, West Yorkshire, hidden in the fog. It's like this quite often :-)
The eastbound train climbs the hill on 11th St. Luckily a motorist held back long enough for me to get a few shots.
Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne.Guilfoyle’s Volcano was built in 1876 and was used to store water for Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne. After lying idle for 60 years, it is now restored as part of a significant landscape development project called Working Wetlands. .
This spectacular and historic water reservoir has commanding views of the city, and its striking landscape design showcases low-water use plants.

The UP 2613 leads an eastbound manifest past Union Station, just after the arrival of the Amtrak train no. 3.
Here are two shots of the UP 8014 leading the PPTMV2 5 through Topeka this morning. It was an awfully convenient day for one of my classes to be off on a field trip, as I saw this thing hopping onto the Kansas Sub just as I was crossing the river myself.
I continued up to Missouri Valley where MCBKC will turn east into the sun for a short stretch to continue towards Boone. The sun was getting mighty high by now and the clouds regrouping, so I let them go.
The necessity to run the power around the balloon track at the Council Bluffs yard to get 1943 facing the right way meant any hope of getting light on the departure faded.
I settled for a blue hour shot of light power (again...) closing in on Heritage Park.
There's only a couple of occasions that I consider shooting up a tree. 1) If there's a well built female tree surgeon working above me. 2) Fall foliage with good light that allows for a nicely exposed blue sky above. Unfortunately, I had to settle for option #2! LOL. In all honesty, I know these types of shots are a bit over-done, but, not by me....yet. I'll use any excuse to capture the beauty of nature...cliched shot or not.
UP GP40-2 No. 1480 leads train LBU51 at St. Francis, WI. The train will serve customers further south on the Milwaukee Sub. 2/6/2023
This just makes me smile. What a happy looking flower, stretching out and up towards the sun. Looking ahead now to summer...
A pair of Union Pacific SD40Ns are moving through the switches at the east end of Canadian Pacific's Bensenville yard. After collecting their train, the 2 UP veterans will head back to Proviso yard.

Can you smell the paint?
Bailey yard diesel shop, October/1984, moments after hostler uncoupled unit after moving from the paint track. Looks sharp, every detail, including the horn, receiving attention.....wait; doh...missed a spot...cab awning!. Disclaimer; about 90% sure of date, but I know it's in fall of 1984. Sold for scrap to Southwest Railroad Car Parts, Longview TX 4/02/87
