TRAIN RACE
...And the CP (Canadian Pacific) takes it by a nose with the CN (Canadian National) chugging alongside.
I live in a little mountain town where the trains stop for a few minutes and crews do a changeover then stay in the bunkhouses on either side of the river for a few hours to rest up for their next trips.
These freight trains are heading west towards Vancouver.
TRAIN RACE belongs to the following groups:
Railway Art and Photography Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Karen Tillotson replied
Thank you Debbie. =)
Sharon K. Shubert
I like to hear train whistles in the distance late at night. I love how you take pictures of all sorts of things, not the same things over and over! Good job! :)
Karen Tillotson replied
That is nice of you to say, Sharon…thank you so much! I love trains too…always have…the rumbles, the whistles, all of it. However, they do some training of the new engineers here…and until they learn how to brake the train and take off smoothly, couple and uncouple the cars, etc…things can sure get noisy around here sometimes – ka-bang, ka-boom – lol!!! Yikes!
Brian Carey
