Description: |
This size photo does not do this scene justice! It was a long, hot wait at Oostanaula Bend for this northbound freight, but the payoff was well worth the effort! Seven locos and 110 cars blast their way through the bean fields on their way to Chattanooga. For a better photo that was taken earlier in the day, refer to Alan Garret's "Power to Spare" photo at http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=397555 |

Locomotion |
Description: |
Anyone who takes a photograph snaps it because we want to freeze a little bit of time. We might want to say "i was there" or "that was cool". Some photographers like to use little tricks, like polarizing fiters, photoshop edits, or the old "pan and scan" method, like seen below. After giving it a try, i've decided that it's nothing to write home to mother about. I like to see my trains crisp and clear, to capture the moment as a clean stop in time. |

Man in the Machine |
Description: |
The lure of railroading is the machine - big, heavy monsters that pull thousands of tons of merchandise across thin steel ribbons. It's sometimes easy to forget that there is flesh and blood behind the roar of the engine and the click of steel wheels. Here, a train conductor inspects a passing trian at Hall Siding. |
