BNSF 716
Title:  BNSF 716
Description:  BNSF 716 leading a mixed freight in the shifting light of the setting sun. Semi-poetic with the fading war bonnets, changing side texts, erasing the Santa Fe. Any bets that by 2023 the SF will be sliced off as well with each repaint? Saves 50% on your lettering budget - "Dear Mr. Buffett, you may forward a small percentage of that savings on to me, at..."

Description:  BNSF 6508 leads a trio with mixed freight as they near the northern at-grade crossing in Connell after finally getting the green a touch before five in the morning. The sun fighting to break the hills through morning mixed clouds.

Connell Curve North
Title:  Connell Curve North
Description:  Connell Curve North - Wishing doesnt make it so. In place for sun rise at 05:30AM. Saw various trains prior to this (images posted), but once in position, camera at ready, ear to the wind listening, adjusting camera settings every 5 minutes with rapidly changing light conditions. And sat there until 06:20 - an hour. In Connell, thats unheard of, because trains run through almost twenty-four hours a day, 2.3 trains per hour on average. Being on the bottom of the bell curve hurts sometimes.
