Voting will last 4 days. You may vote for multiple entries. To do this, you must select all entries for which you wish to vote at once, and then click the submit button.
I assume all the proto photographers are out getting great photos, which is why nothing has been entered yet?
CSX Heading North to Nashville A CSX SD40-2 leads a train north to Nashville with two switchers in tow.
Multiple Units Meet That first image is indeed a tough act to follow. Great image Tbone! Here multiple units meet as the empty coal train takes the siding so the loaded coal train can pass at the Bridgeport siding. Ben
UP 8282 Leads an Empty Grainer The photo above is cool, but: Too bad I caught this NAFTA consist a week too early.
I wasn't planning to submit anything, for lack of subjects to photograph. However, I went for a walk on my lunch break today, and found myself looking at a CP lash-up coming down the road. Right place, right time, camera phone in hand, I figured what the heck, can't look a gift horse in the mouth. Certainly not a great photo, and yes, that's a finger covering the top-left corner, but it DOES meet the requirements... :tb-err:
gpa, Your honesty with the NAFTA shot is much appreciated! :thumbs_up::thumbs_up: Great photos so far. We're still open tonight, so get your final entries in!
Times up! Poll is posted! Just four entries this weekend? Seems like the last proto contest was low on entries too. Maybe we need to change some things up to build the numbers back up?
Are you serious? My crappy little cell-phone pic with a finger blocking the view actually has 4 votes! Amazing!
