April Showers Bring Crap Lighting
Title:  April Showers Bring Crap Lighting
Description:  Railroaders don't take a break when it rains, and I don't have enough free time to be picky. At any rate, I think the shot turned out well enough.

L463
Title:  L463
Description:  The Reedsburg-bound local pauses along Sauk road in Baraboo while the conductor clears the derail at RR Donnely a block away. A motorist doesn't take kindly to the obstruction and bangs a "U-ie". The snow is starting to come down here in the late afternoon and will dump several inches before daybreak.

L463
Title:  L463
Description:  Nothin special about this shot on a dreary March day - I've just always wanted to grab one of the train grinding uphill over Troy drive on Madison's north side.

463
Title:  463
Description:  Total luck shot here - was driving to the Dells taking the scenic route when I happened upon the local with a solid train heading towards Madison outside of Lodi. I banged a quick U-turn and headed back into town to catch them at the bridge. Sadly, I was on a schedule (ish) so I did not have the luxury of chasing.
