The Horseshoe Curve is a stunning sight to behold, especially during the sunset hours. In this photograph, a westbound intermodal train is seen making its way around the curve and up the Allegheny Mountains, with its long line of containers trailing behind it.
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.
