Awaiting it's early morning curtain call, Clinchfield F7A 800 sits on the former C&O mainline at Shelbiana, Kentucky; the start of the Santa Train's 110 mile trip through the Appalachian Region. Thanks to all at CSX and SARM for all the work they did to get the 800 back in active service; and Eric Hendrickson, Casey Thomason, and everyone else involved for lighting **Photo was taken with permission on CSX property and compliant PPE.
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!)
