Ralf, That's an excellent shot. I am a US train hobbyist and know why they set-up on that curve. It gives an excellent perspective on the train. You have a powerful image of the front of the locomotive AND a look at the rest of the train as it rounds the curve.
Furthermore, they are not all the same trains. As I model an old, now merged midwestern railroad, I treasure old pictures of equipment now retired to scrap. Sometimes each locomotive is unique. "Oh yah, that's the GP38 that crashed down in Tupolo and was rebuild with the shortnosed cab." Regards, Bob S. On Sat, Mar 22, 2008 at 3:10 PM, Ken Waller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Great shot.
