I found a decent spot to wait out the train, it made a scheduled stop here. This is the CP railroad overpass.

I was standing in weeds nearly waist high, swatting mosquitoes and getting rained on. For an hour.

It's important to get the picture.

Nice set thanks. Waiting around for a shot reminds me of being a kid anticipating a parade. It is a great almost addictive feeling of anticipation

Very nice. I especially like the last one with the buildings in the background.

Love that steam engine. Always have for past 50 years when HO model railroading became a hobby.

Isn’t the 4014 the largest locomotive now.
