Made this pic up at the Moffat tunnel in colorado. The engineer was having a good time with me. He had to wait for another train to come through the tunnel the other direction, so he was moving up pretty slow. Well each time I brought the camera up he would honk the horn and make me flinch ( them horns are loud, up close)

He finally came to a stop and he would wave like it was cool to take a pic and then honk the horn and start to laugh.

I can't see the pic.

I must have had the same guy at a station in California, I was taking some shots along the platform and somebody gave me a quick blast of the horn.

Not sure why the pic is not displaying I tried on another computer it was not displaying on it, had to hit refresh/reload to display it. I added a link to the pic in case it is not displaying.

Your hosting site must have been having trouble. I see both the image and link. ;)
Nice looking image, and interesting looking engine. :)

Welcome to train shooting. Eventually, you get used to the horns. Nice start.
