My retired BNSF engineer friend said he could give me a dissertation on LIMA. C&Cs always welcome and encouraged. Shot at the very impressive roundhouse/RR museum near Sacramento, CA.

Dec 07, 2009 00:02 | #5 Well it's a start....here's the deal beyond the makers plate. On second view, waited for a train to come down this big curve in Canada ....didn't happen. Woulda been a good one. Real train folk know schedules. Thanks for the kind words. Will work on my RR stuff.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

Crimzon Cream of the Crop  More info | Thats one of the most popular spots in Canada (Morant's curve) to take train pictures, and that's one of the best examples of it. In both sharpness and contrast. My blog

Thanks for the kind words and insight. Dumb luck for us to stumble upon site on a picture perfect day. Not hard to see why it is a favorite. I'll be watching for Morant's curve on the train calenders from now on. We shall return! ...chasing light, now there's a hobby!
