In the wee hours of August 11, Springfield Terminal (PAS) train WJED-10 (EDBF/BFED crew aboard) is on its way back to East Deerfield, MA, following a 20-car drop and 8-car pickup at White River Jct., VT. The train is seen crossing the 1846-built Fall River stone arch bridge in Bernardston, MA, with freshly painted 'heritage Guilford Rail System GP40-2L 507' and PAR MEC B40-8 5936. Crew was aware and briefed with on various night photos and was not harmed in the making of said photo. 3 Alien Bee B1600s were used on various output settings to achieve a balanced lighting. ISO 400, 1/250, F7.1.
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!)
