Remarks & Notes 
All is silent in rural Oakland, IL as the aurora dances overhead. Sitting below is a loaded DREI grain train behind a 5-pack of EMD locomotives. This train came up from Neoga a day prior and was loaded at the ADM facility in Oakland. In the loading process, cars go from being empty south of town, to being loaded and shuffled to the north side. Once power is assembled, the train either heads south towards Neoga or can be parked at a country road north of town. Conveniently, it was parked in a great location for this wonderful atmospheric show.

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!)
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.
