What you get after dozing....... |
Description: |
Had a yellow at the Gibb siding, so knew a meet was coming. While waiting for the train in the car, the warmth of the sun thru the window got the best of me. Wanted to shoot from the sunny side. But the crossing signals woke me with just enough time to get out of the car for this photo! First of 3 trains here. |
