The Apache freight from Holbrook to Snowflake gets underway late in the day on March 7, 2005, leaving Holbrook, Arizona, in a smokescreen that would make a warship commander proud. The conductor seems amused at the actions of the engineer, making it seem logical that it was done specially for the photographers standing at the West Romeo Street grade crossing.
Photos by some of the best railroad still photographers in North America. These photographers must have a significant impact on the art form and have been shooting (or shot in the past) for at least 10 years.
