    Hi All,

    First off, do not vote for this. I am not allowed to enter the contest and vote. This was shot in a rain storm [​IMG] on the western side of Soldier Summit, UT at Gilluly Loops on the UP-UTAH mainline of a eastbound empty coal train pulled by 5 Utah RY SD40's heading for the Wildcat Loadout outside of Helper, UT. It was shot using a Sony FD73 set on 10X in a rain storm. No I didn't get wet. Just rolled down the window on the truck [​IMG].

    Later,
    Jim Harrawood

    Very nice spot Jim, I wish I lived in that area, But since I don't I'll just have to model it. [​IMG]

    It's really a bad picture but I didn't get wet or slip and fall in the mud [​IMG] .

    Great pic, Jim. It's fine considering how you went about getting it. Get a good steady pic at 10x zoom ain't easy!

    Hmmm......not too far away from me, and defi-
    nitely more scenic then the Grand Valley (with the exception of where the track heads
    up into Debeque Canyon). THIS is the stuff I moved West to see!
    Please, more pics!!!!!
