Tied down in the Westward Siding west of St. Albans, a Loram-operated ballast cleaner is silhouetted by the headlights of a westbound empty coal train on the heels of Amtrak's Cardinal No. 51 on the night of Sept. 17, 2021.
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!)
This is dedicated (with permission) to the skilled and gifted photographer - Chase Gunnoe - who regularly posts and is on staff with RP. I believe he deserves a gallery showcasing his remarkable photos. This is for you Chase! (More great photos to come!)
