Locomotive: Sound Transit Kinkisharyo/Mitsui	Location/Date of Photo: International District Station Seattle, Washington, USA May 20, 2008
Locomotive No./Train ID 133 South	Photographer: Mike Bjork Contact Mike Bjork + Add to Favorites

Remarks: New Link Light Rail trains emerge from darkness into the light on a regular basis now. Within a couple of months of the new lines opening, the new smooth, silent trains are still a wonder to those who see them in the Downtown Transit Tunnel. Sound Transit and Metro are still working out operational and signal issues that are plaguing any new system. The "bus tunnel", originally built in the 80's and opened in 1990, housed dual-mode diesel/electric buses until a retrofit in 2005 that readied the tunnel for new light rail service. The remodel took two years. During the time, Sound Transit and Metro installed new rails, centenary, electrical substations, and emergency ventilation systems, and lowered the roadway 2" so trains could be boarded levelly. In the foreground track, three lime road turtles spot a 2-car train. Longer 3-4 car trains are to stop a the next set just down the track. Here, at the south end of the Tunnel, accents of Asian culture dot the concrete and stone, open-air station.

Locomotive: Burlington Northern Santa Fe GE C44-9W (Dash 9-44CW)	Location/Date of Photo: BNSF Scenic Sub Scenic, Washington, USA November 14, 2009
Locomotive No./Train ID BNSF 733 Q-STPTAC1-12K	Photographer: David Honan Contact David Honan + Add to Favorites

Remarks: The light at the end of the tunnel is, in fact, an approaching train: In less than a second, a westbound will emerge from the darkness of Cascade Tunnel into the gloom of a twilit evening. The heat contained in the exhausted gases which pour out of the tunnel with and after each train is evident from the amount of snow that has been melted off the tracks outside the portal.

Locomotive: Norfolk Southern GE C40-9W (Dash 9-40CW)	Location/Date of Photo: Ridgecrest Ridgecrest, North Carolina, USA October 31, 2009
Locomotive No./Train ID NS 9032 NS 135	Photographer: Nick DAmato (Diamond D) Contact Nick DAmato (Diamond D) + Add to Favorites

Remarks: For the past hour, NS 135 has been on its hands and knees battling mother nature, climbing the rugged Blue Ridge mountains on a cold and rainy fall day. In a scene perfectly suited for Halloween, the train emerges from a blanket of clouds, soon to plunge back into darkness as it enters the Ridgecrest Tunnel. Thankfully as the name implies, the tunnel marks the summit of the grade, and soon the train will be running downhill toward a stop in Asheville.
