Great shot, Mitch. This is probably my favorite of all the switching ones I've seen posted. I love the conductor on the caboose looking back and the brakeman riding the cut of cars.

I would have to agree with Christopher, the switching at Barlett was my favorite part of the trip, and this is one of the better pictures. It's really a picture of the trainman on the caboose platform, a vignette of the life of a railroader. It's a detail, but the marker lights on the caboose really add to the ambience of the image. That's the way it was in the old days.
