Switch Assignment |
Description: |
After a quick chat with one of the brakemen, the locomotives were off to the yard office for about an hour's rest before resuming switching. I took this speed blurred shot with the flash. The floodlight tower was lit up just right, along with some increasingly thick fog, it just made a really nice combo for a good photograph. This photo was Photo of the Day on Trains.com on 12-11-2004! |
