Here are a few shots from a couple of weeks ago in Metamora, Indiana. C&C always welcome and appreciated.

1. Notice the ghostly face of the engineer in the top window.

I like 2 and 3

2 and 4 for me. I love the raggedy old caboose. When I opened the post I looked at 2 and said, oh man, I'd love to see it by itself... and you delivered with 4 :grin:

I like these & wish you had more of the front in #1.

2 is my favorite by far. Great shot.

Thanks all! Ask and ye shall receive :) (although no ghost engineer in this one):

I like the framing better, but with that exposure, we've lost the nice light on the following cars?

You're right about the lost light on the trailing cars. In addition to the exposure differences, I think on the first exposure there may have been some lighting help from auto headlights as well.
