If it ain't a "roster shot", forget it guys.
Any "Real" railfan knows that!
btw, I've been told by the "experts" that I ain't much of a railfan, because I haven't taken a camera out in years! But even when I did, I still didn't "qualify" - I included a lot of scenery in the picture; and horror of horrors - railroad track sans trains, date nails, signals, bridges, all kinds of stuff - rusted rail even; and my favorite - the derelict WP machine shop behind the roundhouse in Oakland - complete with all old fashioned belt driven machinery, just before it was torn down.
But who cares - I like Drew's artistry. Keep 'em coming.
