The sun has gone down for the day as BNSF ES44C4 No. 8254 leads the Tacoma, Washington to Omaha, Nebraska stack train up to the top of the Burkes Hill, which is a 2-percent grade, on a cold evening on March 24, 2016.
Railroading is a 24 hour a day business, that never sleep. From sunset to sunrise the railroad must run. These image are taken by some of the best rail photographer out their.
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!)
