It is tricky finding good light for the Ski Train (and the Zephyr) as both run west in the morning and east in the evening. In other words, the sun is always behind the train. With F40PH 406 on the tail end of the Winter Park Express, however, this going away shot at Rollins in morning sunlight looks pretty darn nice.
