Went out for some early morning shooting today. I wouldn't say I'm disappointed, but it wasn't as good as I'd hoped =(

Edworthy Park:
Train 11R-19, westbound Rocky Mountaineer Railtours

At the weir..
Some southbound 400 series. I neglected to get a lineup for trains coming from Red Deer.

In a similar vein, NB 265-19

And the main suprise at Alyth shops building 13.

Really like #4, great capture. Also #6, another great shot, great contrast between the colours and styles of the locos.

In the last photo is the loco with the green and white paint scheme a CP paint scheme or is it another Railroad's colors?
