Every night is an adventure trackside! Tonight brought freezing rain covering everything in over a quarter inch of ice by train time. Notice the ice spraying off the rail at the front wheel of 3809 in the photo! Strap on boot traction devices are a must here for safety! Flash units are enclosed in zip lock bags with icicles on them. The pair of GP 40-2s are pulling hard coming past at 04:56 with interchange from VRS in Burlington.
Not
just heritage schemes, not just commemorative schemes - this album is devoted to some of the world's most interesting paint schemes, past or present.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
