Wow, hope you retreated well away from the track after taking the shot! Would love to see a video if you have any. Thanks for sharing these shots of this little documented railroad.

I don't know if you're brave or stupid to be so close to the tracks with that lean going on. Fine shot, though.
|
Joe : zoom from a crossing + train going less than 5 mph = I could have taken a nap, read a book and still gotten well clear before I was in any danger! And you can bet I was pretty far from the tracks anytime it got near given their history of frequent (generally minor) derailments.

No need to worry, the "ALWAYS BE CAREFUL" stenciling above the air hoses will protect everyone involved.

Wow, Michael, that loco is leaning so far to the right that even the vertical references are leaning in that direction, too. ;-) Nice catch.
|
Looks like the numbers up front have slid to the right because of the loco listing as well.

Classic picture.... love to see those cool locomotives still working on those cool old rails in the grass!

"deferred maintenance" That's a nice way to put it...
