Lucas,
I especially like those shots from a hih location that show the environment around the railroad.
Your great shots from trackside level show the locos at better advantage.

"Just be glad that those Hunts are not on the highways! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :lol: :mrgreen:" They always end up on the road. Somebody once told me. " That railroads ship mostly empty containers." They claimed "Most vendors don't like how long it takes railroads to deliver their product". "It is cheaper to let the railroads handle a non revenue trip of a container.
