Some people shoot cars, planes, people. Well I shoot railroad landscapes as one of my hobbies. Here's two shots from my new 40D from this weekend. It was hard to get the file size below the necessary size for posting.

I saw that first one on Railpictures.net... Nice!

You know of any good places to get out and shoot trains in San Diego County?

Dave, nice shots. I really like that first one. Great site also, I just dug through it, good stuff. I will mark it as a favorite, and be back for sure.

I like the Cargill engine photo. The outboard light is neat. And what caught my eye is the interesting run of orange paint strips, starting on the rail, and running over the edges of the steps, and finally over to the far track.
