It took me a while to locate where I photographed this train. Google Streetview showed that the trees along the highway have obscured this view. This is an eastbound manifest working hard up the west slope of Rogers Pass.

    It certainly is a perfect location. So I guess you are guilty of not keeping really accurate notes either, eh? :o )

    My memory isn’t what it used to be, but I am certain that it wasn’t in Kazahkstan. I must have messed up the copying of the GPS co-ordinates. It should be 51.152589, -117.832304
    I need a “Preview” before posting.

    Heh, given the date, maybe you were photographing CCCP?

    Regardless, beautiful shot Steve!

    Fixed Steve. One or two photos a year have this error, it’s not worth it to program a preview for the few problems that occur. Easier to just fix the error.
