    does the crew blow the horn in hopes of moving this beast along?

    @snake2…of course we do. None of us want to hit any type of animal, but sadly it happens :-(

    A bull elk? As dangerous as the Bull Moose? I believe a Bull Moose could do some damage to the front end of a C40-8. ;)

    Our elk friend here seems more concerned with Tim than with the approaching train.

    The thread on 235 reminded me that I found myself thinking about this shot of yours the other day (quite the litmus test if I can remember one for more than a few days yet alone months), and that I’d never commented at the time. Anyways, easily one of my favourite shots on the site since I started contributing.
