A couple of Western Maryland #734 from this weekend. I haven't had my 7D Mark II very long, and this was one of my first outings with it.

Thank you, PhotosGuy. It's hard to find a bad location there in the fall.

Really great photos! I assume you are a railroad employee being able to get such good shots in a rail yard.

Wish I could do that in Elkhart.......

No I'm not a RR employee. I shot it from an overpass.

On the evening of the Halloween specials on the North Norfolk railway. Black Prince sits up near the buffers at Holt. Happy to get anything from this shot, it was 1/4 second hand held. There was actually a couple of carved pumpkins with T lights within mounted on the front.

^ ^ I wish there was a tiny bit of detail in the front, but that's a pretty nice shot, especially for 1/4 sec!
