Thank you. Glad you enjoyed viewing them. These were just quick snaps to check the perspective and I had planned to come back the next day for the final run and manually set the shutter speed and exposure for better results. Unfortunately it was raining and the wind was blowing vary hard so I changed my plans. Instead I followed the train from Beach Street out to Wilder Ranch and back to the Boardwalk in my truck with my wife. There were not many cars on the road so we were able to time it to arrive at the crossing gates for many of the crossings as the train arrived. I was very pleased to see four of the five cars were full on the final day in such poor weather. I still can’t get over the sight of that gorgeous passenger train rolling through Santa Cruz.
