Remarks & Notes 
Rush Hour in Philadelphia

A low setting Winter Sun envelops the catenary as it meets the horizon casting a golden glow down the barrel of the Northeast Corridor. In the foreground, a four car set of GE built SEPTA Silverliner IV's glides north through the Tacony section of Philadelphia. In the background, both Liberty One and Two, along with the Comcast Center Tower are clearly visible in a silhouette making up a sizable portion of a growing Philadelphia skyline. To the left, motorists sit anxiously in traffic that has grind to a halt on Interstate 95, no doubt envious of those who have elected a faster means of transportation home!

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train

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.

Nocturnal Nuances & Lights In The Night! (Between Sunset - Sunrise / Sundown - Sunup!)

Album created by member Dana M.
Album Views: 445,969
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!)
