Right at me
Title:  Right at me
Description:  The Holiday Train rolls right at me into the curve at Goodman. There is work going on near the tracks, and the access that had been closer to the crossing is no longer available, so I had to do a tele shot from a ways back. So it goes.

Elk River

Mount Royal
Title:  Mount Royal
Description:  Office car Mount Royal speeds past at Country Club Rd in Siloam Springs. I have some history with this car. Back in 1992, when CP was new to the D&H, they sent two cars to the Steamtown Railfan Weekend, Mt Stephen, and this car. I was a member of the Southern Tier Division of the RRE, and volunteered to help out as a car host. I mostly hosted the Mt Stephen, but did some time on this car as well. So 30 plus years later, here it is again!!
