Remarks & Notes

9/17/02, 6:45 a.m., CSX P945-017 crossing the Wabash River with 2 WC SD45s pulling a RB&BB circus train southbound north of Lafayette, IN. This move started in Green Bay, WI and ended in Indianapolis, IN. I woke up at 4:30 a.m. and burned a vacation day for this photo. Fujichrome Provia ISO 100 pushed one stop to ISO 200. The sound of the SD45s working could be heard clear back in Battle Ground from where I was standing. No more Wisconsin Central, no more SD45s working in regular train service with all 20 cylinders, and no more RB&BB circus trains.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 31,713
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.

Nocturnal Nuances & Lights In The Night! (Between Sunset - Sunrise / Sundown - Sunup!) Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 445,320
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!)
