This is a shot that I have been hoping to shoot for quite some time. Not necessarily at this exact location...but I've wanted to get a shot of a silhouetted train, backdropped by either a rising or setting sun. Everything came together perfectly on this morning as this eastbound train head straight into yellow/orange painting at the detector at milepost 8.4 (near Carr Street).
