Do train stops and tracks count ?

Union Pacific had this steam locomotive, along with 50s vintage rail cars, parked a rail line near the Iowa State Fairgrounds this weekend. It looked like it was a public relations push as we saw a few yard signs protesting Union Pacific's plans to close some nearby streets to make room for more rail. Hmmm, I may have to side with the people with the big, black, steam-powered train set. Pretty cool stuff.



E-M5 and Olympus 12mm for both, Nik for mono

Shot during a 1 hour stay at a railway crossing. There are people who are able to find out everything about freight train schedules, but I haven't dived that deeply into it.

Containers, probably going from the port of Rotterdam to Germany...


...and this one is probably returning the empty wagons.


These ones are schlepping a second locomotive as well.




All shot with GH2 and Panny 14-45mm @ 45mm

Barrie, I really love your shots of Britannia. Have you given any thought to trying them in black and white?
