Better angle
Title:  Better angle
Description:  Youll see why when you look at the next photo. We were out for a day trip since the weather was so nice-sun, mid 70s, and we have the RV dewinterized, so were not restricted in our travels to how far we can go, but still get back for a bathroom, not a small consideration for two people past 60. We rolled into Vinita to see a southbound rolling on the UP. I decided to check the BNSF, since a lot of times there will be a train waiting, if theres one on the diamond. Sure enough, there was an eastbound stack train. I pulled in behind a gas station for the shot at the diamond. That shot was lackluster, but the going away shot here was better lit, and not obstructed. Have to remember that for next time....

Clutter
Title:  Clutter
Description:  I wanted to get the shot of the stack train crossing the ex MKT, but the shot there for an eastbound in the afternoon is a bad angle. I was thinking Id work it so I could at least get the power and some train, but its so cluttered there, its just impossible, and I didnt have time to scout another view. Would have been great in the morning, or for a westbound, since I could have shot it nose on as he hit the crossing. Oh well.
