Remarks & Notes 
Its early April and the last bits of snow still hang on as the sun sets near the Iowa state capitol building. I believe this train with 2 GP40's up front was #81, waiting to depart southward from Short Line yard for Kansas City. Note the mofw workers silhouetted by smoke in the distance. Taken on Kodachrome 25 with 135mm Minolta lens.

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!)
