    Cool! You can actually feel the tons of steel in motion. Lovely perspective, too.

    It doesn't get any better than this! Fantastic photograph! This could and should be on the cover of one of the railroad magazines!

    Superb!

    Great shot of the train and perfect for the theme. I also love your shot of the hawk for camera critters.

    I walked in my front yard and there was a hawk in a fairly low branch staring at me. Gave me a real start. I wasn't able to get a shot though. By the time I had my camera lifted he flew off and I didn't even push the button fast enough to get the tail end of him.

    In America, our trains are usually dark colors. How smart to have them bright colors-- more readily seen! Marvelous photo!

    I hope you can come visit my "orange" stuff at New York Traveler.net. :)

    Have a great weekend!
