Over the years, during my video days, I took a lot of photographers charters. Didn't usually get too many stills due to my inability to do two things at once, but here are a few.

Really nice set. I don't understand photo charter.

An organization that specializes in such things will charter/hire a train for a day/week, whatever. The photographers will ride in a passenger car, freight car or caboose. The train stops at a scenic location, everybody gets off, the train backs up then runs past the photographers, generally making a lot of smoke. Might do this several times at each location. Gets photographers in to remote locations not generally accessible.
All of them are excellent - #1 reminds me of the Wabash Cannonball
Great set! I’m a rail fan - #1 I like the best.
Have you ever taken the Durango Winter Photographer’s Train? I always wanted to, but now I’m unable to afford it.

I did when I was shooting train videos for a living, so it was tax deductible, and I did sell a number 😀. Now I’m retired I can’t afford it either.
Nice shots, Casey Jones. But don't forget to cross your Ts ("Seam Around the World???")
