Remarks & Notes

Due to a combination of a harsh winter, booming oil industry, and aggressive trackwork, Amtrak's Prized train, the Empire Builder detours over the KO Sub. While the eastbound train 8 still uses its intended route north of here, train 7 detours westbound as its easier to go with the flow of traffic. Most westbound traffic travels the KO sub, and eastbound traffic via Grand Forks to the north. An unusually calm foggy sunrise greets today's train 7 as it flies over a spectacular bridge built by the Great Northern in 1912.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 31,216
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.

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!)
