This was the proverbial "Money Shot" that I was going for on this particular day! This eastbound coal load is leaving Cliff and crossing over South Boulder Creek on the bridge at MP 36.45. Just ahead, the train will enter Tunnel 29.

Beauty! Truly the money shot. If only the clouds had parted just a moment to give you some direct light, you'd have a shot-of-the-year or even the-decade. Still, very beautiful and worth the trip to capture it!
