Train (Downeaster)

Dover, NH view map

I swung by my daughter's gymnastics event which happens to be just beside the Dover Train Station. I saw a few people waiting on the platform so I guessed the train would be by soon. Right after my daughter's last event, I left as I still had to hit Radio Shack and then pick up my son at a preset time. I realized the train was inbound very soon, so I grabbed my gear and decided to give it 2 mins. It only took a minute & half for it to roll in.

This is one of those shots that took all of about 2 mins to setup for and shoot, yet it took about a 1/2 hour to post process. The sky was a bit blown out, so I masked it out and lowered its exposure. It shouldn't have taken that long, but I was interrupted a number of times in the process.
