After enjoying a wonderful dinner with close friends at The Capital Grille, we headed straight for the Metra station at La Fox along Union Pacific's Geneva Subdivision. Storms kept moving in from Iowa through out the evening which made it fun photographing and watching trains. Seen here, Union Pacific SD70M No. 4498 leads this westbound freight on Main Two through the Metra La Fox station as the rain pours on June 20, 2015.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
For the train and storm chaser. Trains with thunderstorms, dark clouds, rain, lightning, hurricanes - tropical storms, funnel clouds, storm light, rainbows, and snow storms.
