Remarks & Notes

A San Luis & Rio Grande photo freight, powered by 2-6-0 No. 1744, aims at La Veta Pass east of after departing Alamosa, Colorado, at first light. This is a special photo freight operated by the railroad on September 20, 2007, to La Veta and return, and is glinting the morning’s brief moment of sunshine at milepost 245 in the expanse of Colorado’s San Luis Valley

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 32,603
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: 446,757
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!)
