Right at me |
Description: |
The Holiday Train rolls right at me into the curve at Goodman. There is work going on near the tracks, and the access that had been closer to the crossing is no longer available, so I had to do a tele shot from a ways back. So it goes. |

Elk River |
Description: |
The Holiday Train rolls off the Elk River Bridge to the thundering sound of clicking shutters from the assembled fans. The other side of the bridge is the scenic shot, but even late in the day this time of year, the sun doesnt come around. Still, a good shot. |

On the bridge |

Last shot |
Description: |
The Holiday train passes the Cobb feed mill at Siloam Springs. In retrospect, I should have taken the last shot at Davidson Rd, which was in shadow. Its counterintuitive, but the lack of sun would have highlighted the holiday lighting on the train. This is still pretty good, though!! |

Mount Royal |
Description: |
Office car Mount Royal speeds past at Country Club Rd in Siloam Springs. I have some history with this car. Back in 1992, when CP was new to the D&H, they sent two cars to the Steamtown Railfan Weekend, Mt Stephen, and this car. I was a member of the Southern Tier Division of the RRE, and volunteered to help out as a car host. I mostly hosted the Mt Stephen, but did some time on this car as well. So 30 plus years later, here it is again!! |
