Great composition with the leading lines of the road following the bright orange cars in the train. Good DOF.

A fine composition of this retired train and its carriages, Lynn. V

They look like they are in good shape. Wonder why they were retired. Hope they find a new home. V

Love the amount of DOF from f/13 that gives me a good view down the line of cars.

They appear to be in pretty good shape. What a neat find and beautifully photographed.

Incredible repeating patterns and color. I’m glad they are being reused. V

Neat shot and find. Nice to know they're not just being junked! Although replacing with electric might be better.

Such an interesting picture and reality for the locomotives. Colorful, too. V

Quite the impressive collection you captured here. I wonder why they're being sold? V.

How interesting. At first I thought it was a long train but then realized they were not all boxcars. Great shot and interesting info. V

It would definitely catch my eye too. Great shot of all of them lined up. I may have asked you this before, but can you wander around in between them? ~BV~
