Hey, We can't let this one go without comment. Wow, the dedication is amazing. I've done some wild things to get a shot but don't think I would have attempted this one even in my younger days. Great shot and moreover a great story.

Beautiful photo Dave! Quite a story behind it too. I think it was indeed worth it.

Worth it? Damn straight. Great shot.

Another excellent photograph and commentary Dave. So, since you used all shot-shells on the tree, I am assuming someone was home praying that you did not meet a bruin on the way out?

Other railfans gunning for the same spot, no doubt!

Well worth the effort! If you are up to an encore, how about a wide angle?
