On the last light of the day on the former ATSF Transcon-BNSF Chilicothe Sub the eastbound M-KCKGAL3-20 is easing on the dynamic brake, as a pair of GE motor bring the 5,764ft long manifest off the Chilicothe Sub, and on to the connection track at Cameron Jct. From their the manifest will get on the BNSF Ottumwa Sub for a quarter of a mile where the manifest will once again diverge onto the Galesburg Yard lead ending this crews day of fast running from Fort Madison, IA.
Railroading is a 24 hour a day business, that never sleep. From sunset to sunrise the railroad must run. These image are taken by some of the best rail photographer out their.
Pictures taken with the strong contrast between Rail and Light in Dawn/Dusk/Sunrise or Sunset.
