Heading eastbound along the James River just west of Lynchburg on blustery December afternoon.

A Norfolk-Southern double stacked freight train runs through Charlottesville, VA southbound, arcing around the Universtiy of Virginia Medical Center on a crystal clear Valentine's Day.

Transitioning on a beautiful spring day over Norfolk Southern's massive Inman Yard. Also in the frame, above and to the right, is CSX's Tilford Yard. Special thanks to Chris Starnes.

Idling on the tracks while doing brake tests on a quiet Christmas Eve.. Also, check out the ex-TFM locomotive thats behind the leader!

Couldn't have asked for better weather to come and watch this BNSF meander through the Tehachapi pass toward the Loop. Thanks for making this visit to Tehachapi possible Chris!

Latched together, two yard engines move down the tracks at the foot of ninth street with Langley Fountain spouting in the background..

The setting winter sun sets a nice light on this southbound as it rumbles across the Copper Creek Viaduct

A traquil view from the shore of the Holston River on this fabulous saturday afternoon in Kingsport, TN...

Warning.. Heavy Metal approaching

This is Quality... Conrail Style ;)

The second engine was pouring out smoke... unfortunately, you can't really see it unless the train was between you and the sun. Still this train makes for a beautiful scene!

"Long Black Train"

This train is fixin' to leave Arizona to cross the Topock Bridge into California! Note the "Arizona" Sign!

Taken from California of the landscape of Arizona...

This BNSF pushes through the desert landscape at sunset
