What seemed like a typical train 137, other than the four BNSF units trailing is seen passing the signals at mile 24.8. It’s ditch lights have just been turned off as train 230 bears down on the train a few hundred metres ahead. This ended up unfortunately being a desperation shot as it beat me to Meadowvale where the angle and lighting would have been much better, but I’m glad I caught the train as it put around 20 cars on the ground near Ayr later in the trip completely shutting down the subdivision in that area all night and into the next day.

  1. Nice photo. Those searchlight backgrounds could use a refreshing coat of non-reflecting black paint.

  2. Looks like ALL the headlights are off… not even on dim setting.
