Sig14176S1 |
Description: |
Signal 14176 [Southbound] guards a particularly scenic part of the Crawford Hill Main Line. In this afternoon shot all is [temporarily] quiet. There is a small hill immediately behind this signal which allows for some good down on photos as seen here. It can be accessed off 'Saw Logging Road' [NOT the nearby 'Saw LOG Road'!]. There is a small place to park roadside at the signal, however MoW vehicles may need to access the spot to cross in or out to the tracks at any time. |

The second night of the August supermoon saw the moonrise later and much darker. With what little natural light remained i was able to enhance this photo to get the barest detail of 5080's mast. Traffic was up a bit too, allowing for a catch with an active signal! |

Description: |
My fave of this series...detail shot of the moon and it's companion, man-made, 'lunar'...by this time it was annoyingly apperent that I was under attack of the 'mosquito kind'..making proper positioning and steadying of my tripod that much more a challenge, as well as trying not to find myself caught in the headlight of an immenent train, either!!! |

Sig5080KbgS8 |
Description: |
Wider view with both red and lunar aspects lit, BNSF signal 5080. With a train closing fast and unseen mosquitos all around I called it quits and quickly folded up shop. Being that the area here was very dark after dark { :-P } I made sure to park well away from the tracks and wore a safety vest while staying off the crossing and track as much as possible, then giving a wide berth for the coming train to pass. Always better to safely represent and promote our hobby than be sorry, I'd say!!! |

Waiting for the local |
Description: |
It looks deceptively close but the head end of this empty coaler is about a mile downline..the tank car local will soon pass and they'll be under way. Tonville is only a railroad placename and next to the town of Lochbuie. It is 4 miles west to Barr Lake, and about 9 miles east to Keenesburg. |
