I didn't see a category for railroad, so this looks like the closest. Mods, please move it if you see fit. Union Pacific is the only main-line railroad in the US which never retired steam, meaning in all of their history they've always had at least one active steam engine. (That's what "they" tell me, anyway.) Here's the annual Home Plate Special, inward-bound to Omaha for the College World Series. Yeah, the third one is overexposed. With that black engine it's kinda hard not to bury the shadows and/or blow out the highlights. If you've never seen one of these close up, the size of the wheels is totally amazing!
You're very welcome ... I don't have many of them but I have a few, and I want to be sure everything I post here was done on a Canon. Here's a close-up of the machinery on one which is on permanent display. It's about 12 years old, shot on Kodachrome 64 with the Canon GIII.
Here are a couple more. I plead the 5th regarding what cameras these were taken with. First is a "pan" shot that worked. The UP heritage engine just taking off on a local track. The second is odd light, odd colors, using an odd film. Rollei/Agfa CN 200, which I just decided to try for the {whatever} of it.
Amazing tones for the first two pictures! I also like the second from the #4 post and the one from the #3 post! Great images!
Here's the last one of these, at least for a while. This is outward-bound just north of here. The trip out was delayed, unfortunately, due to some dweeb tagging one of the cars when it sat on display next to the ballpark. It had to go to the shop to get cleaned up. Fortunately for me, anyway, it went out when I was off and they even gave the approximate times on the local news that morning so I was able to quickly catch it.
Here's a couple of related ones, shots of the "Big Boy" on display here in Omaha last year -- both being ("and now a word from our sponsor") genuine Canon shots ...
