I have to agree with Frank....nice angle in #2.

I agree. Nice capture of the two units together.

is there a special significance to these trains because I dont get what makes these photos nice as the subject seems unappealing

Because the subject IS appealing to some of us. No offense, but I'm not one to shoot or look at images of cars (unless they are railcars, :lol. We each have our own personal interests in photographic subjects. Nothing wrong with that.

Nice shots, I think I'd like to see more of the train next time though.

Nothing special, just out learning what makes photography so rewarding.

I shoot mostly nature and action type stuff. I don't have any eye for "art".

Met some folks a few weeks back and went to Oakland Cemetery and had a great time.

Went back again by myself, saw the CXS area just North of the cemetery and took some shots. Having never really photographed trains before, I did not know that the rest of the train is as important as the business end. I will know next time.

Thanks
