CSX 4021         
With all the extra time I had I wasnt going to just shoot a trio of CSX Standard Cabs leading a road freight once in a fairly general location. So, I decided to keep up with them going north. I decided to at least grab them by the South Cairo CPLs then I would head back. However, a lesson learned, always check your camera settings. I severely overexposed every shot to a point that none of them were salvageable. So, now I had to try to get out ahead of it again. Despite the train being 800+ axles long, the EMDs on the head end made sure they hauled that train well, as it was going pretty close to track speed. After a little daredeviling I was able to get back out ahead of them shorty before South Ottawa and got them coming by the bracket and the dwarf for the IORY.

Tom Beckett General Nicely done. The fog gives the photo a wonderfully etherial quality, and the CPL dwarf is a nice touch. The beauty of digital is you see your results right away, and can adjust/correct. In my day, before digital, you'd send your photos to Kodak, and not find out til a week later that you'd nuked a whole roll of Kodachrome. 9/28/2021 4:16:01 AM
