Remarks & Notes

An almost surreal moment in mountain railroading is captured as a Union Pacific freight climbs out of the Red Narrows of Spanish Fork Canyon while a BNSF manifest stirs up a cloud of dust descending a newly ballasted section of track. All the while, the sun prepares to sink behind the Wasatch at the close of another day on Soldier Summit.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 31,216
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.
