To the Top of the Tower

Here is an image taken on Monday the 4th from inside the Santa Ana Transportation Center. I was there for a monthly meeting with the Orange County Railway Historical Society. I took several more images which I will share in other post.

Tree's, Snow, Train's, Friend's .. Aint' That Enough?

I spent Saturday the 26th of January 2008 up in Cajon Pass with friends and photographing trains. During times between them the camera wanders to people, mountain's and shrubs. A few spots where I perched myself had tree's that were more or less dead and not much of a tree.. but for this post, I will call them tree's.
Above are two of my favorites from Saturday.
We had friendship...
Trains to photograph...
Clean Air...
Snow on the surrounding mountains...
And a wonderful Sunrise...
So with that I offer up the music track that spawned the name of my blog
Teenage Fanclub - Aint That Enough

Also of note - there is now a Playlist of music at the bottom of this blog page that you can listen to.

Time For a Railroad Photo Favorite of 2007



I have been going through my railroad images of 2007 the last few weeks and doing sorting and tagging in prep for archiving them. Also pulling aside favorites for my annual favorites slide show presentation.
This image of ATSF 3751 shoving through Amtrak's Redondo facility in downtown Los Angeles, CA is on that list of favorites. It was taken shortly after sunset from the Olympic Street bridge over the Los Angeles River as the SBRHS's pride was shoving back to the Redondo turntable after a exciting run from Fullerton to LA. It was in Fullerton over the weekend of May 4th through the 6th for the "Fullerton Railroad Days"
I will share more favorites as I come across them.
