Railpictures.ca - Doug Lawson Photo: January 25, 2008, on board train 570 heading south to Williams Lake. We had done some switching at Dunkley Lumber mill and had just departed at 20:57. Took a few grab shots as we headed into the snow belt area between Dunkley and Cotwood. More snow was falling and we still had miles to go on this mid-winter evening. MoW crews have been busy, using a ballast regulator pushing the snow from the tracks. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Looks like a snowmobile trail to me, you can barely make out the rails.

Considering most of my images were taken with a 4 meg Cannon “Powershot 85″ I think they turned out quite well. Unfortunately the the imagery is not large enough for publication in various magazines such as Trains etc. I do have slides but will not be sending them anywhere for publication never to receive the originals back.

Most of my images are shot with a iPhone 6S Plus. Some were done on an Asus Zenfone 3. Whether I’ll upload them here is another guess though. I’d have to pull them off iCloud.
