    1. All challenges close at 12 midnight (24:00 hours) Eastern Standard Time on Monday 12th May 2008, and will be noted with a "Time's up!" post within the thread.
    2. Please use the challenge as a motive to take a new photograph rather than using a photograph that you have taken in the past.
    3. Challenges are open to everyone, have fun!!
    4. Though not required, commenting on other peoples pictures is encouraged.
    5. Only one image per participant so please choose the image carefully.
    6. Any posts with images taken before the commencement of the challenge will be deleted.
    7. For photos to be eligible they must be taken between the 10th May and 12th May 2008.
    8. Ensure dates and times on your camera are correct.

    I look forward to seeing many contributors, remember this is to encourage all modellers to take a shot of the subject rather than post a photo taken in the past.

    The Great Steel Fleet

    I know I cannot top that, but here's an attempt.

    The D&RGW called its monstrous fleet of 2,794 Bethlehem 100T "Quads" the Great Steel Fleet. Here's a portion of the fleet at Tunnel 8/10, carrying Routt County's finest back to Denver:
