    Neat idea! I'll enter with the following:
    [​IMG]

    How lucky I was to capture the Milwaukee Road #8 leading a grain extra in the fall of 1979 outside of Highwood, Montana. The late afternoon sun is waining and it will soon be dark. The normal operating time for the Milwaukee's Northern Montana Sub. Who knew that in just a few short months, this line will go silent when it is embargoed.

    Freight over foggy river fishermen

    Here's my first entry. I decided to see what I could do with a photo editor to get rid of the furnace in all of my bridge pictures.

    A slow-moving freight emerges from the fog as two fishermen try their luck under the bridge. Looks like the sun is starting to burn through the fog in the distance.
