DTRR 103 at Sunrise: http://www.flickr.com/photos/csxt1534/6891176618/in/photostream Poorly composed and Underexposed locomotive. Statements like this do absolutely nothing to help the person learn why it's underexposed or why the composition (in your opinion) is wrong. If he was shooting a silhoue...

I have a Canon 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro for sale. It's great for portraits.

Poorly composed and Underexposed locomotive. It needs more space on the right side. Maybe a little bit of fill flash would've helped, too. Nice attempt!

Looks like you had a successful chase, too! I caught it in Mansfield, Crestline, and Bucyrus, but once it hit the Sandusky District, it was gone; impossible to chase.

Great series, Y@! I really enjoyed seeing these on Flickr.

On February 26th, my friend and I went flying over Fostoria and saw a few trains sitting and one moving in that area. We first flew over Carey, which is where CSX had two locomotives sitting… http://www.flickr.com/photos/47491339@N04/6789201320/ NS had a lot of locomotives sitting on the east end of...

I'm happy with 8.2 megapixels! I would like to get a 40D thought...

That's a cool lash-up on the NS train you shot from Center Street!

Wow! These are great!

On February 18th, I joined a group of railfans from the Ohio Railroader Facebook group to go watch trains around Greenwich, Ohio. We first started off at Ken Heyl’s HO-scale model train layout in Ashland, Ohio. Then, we checked out Nova, Ohio, which is where we saw the Nova interlocking tower. I cli...

The train then had an air hose disconnect. The train went into emergency and the car with the broken hose was about five car lengths down from the Park Road crossing. Since it was National Random Acts of Kindness Day, I decided to walk to the head-end to tell the crew where the break was. Sounds li...

After going to the gym on February 17th, I went to Powell Road to watch trains. When I arrived NS 235 was at Cooke Road and it soon passed under the overpass. http://www.flickr.com/photos/47491339@N04/6893919335/ Then I migrated down to Flint to catch the remainder of the trains. First to come throu...

Thank you!

After my class, I went to Powell Road to see what was happening. When I arrived NS L3J was at Weber Road and 576 was at Troyton. L3J was the first to show up and I shot it from the overpass. http://www.flickr.com/photos/47491339@N04/6884496149/ Then 576 showed up soon after. http://www.flickr.com/ph...

Thank you!

Thanks, Z! They'll keep coming!

8) First off, I saw NS 218 at Cheshire Road, but that wasn’t nearly as fun as what was to come later in the day! http://www.flickr.com/photos/47491339@N04/6872815875/ As many of you know, I flew over the CSX derailment in Greenwich, Ohio. My friend Lew was the pilot and we took off from Marion Munic...

I got my photos from 1,000 feet up!

I heard there was a derailment in Greenwich. Where exactly was it? I'm going to fly over it this afternoon.
