I'm not quite clear what this has to do with trains, but I like this picture very much.

Even though this image is in color, it nicely approximates a black and white with its emphasis on crows, the tanker car and the snow.

I like the feeling of anticipation here with the close focus on the rail and the train bearing down.

Ollis crossing

More than merely a pleasing pattern of branching lines, this image hints at the joy of adventure as the lines curve into the unknown past cliff and hillside. This promise of discovery is at the base of the allure of rail travel and its wide appeal. And this lovely black and white evocation of these longed for moments is captured here with a low, intimate perspective that invites the viewer into the scene. On a personal note, it brings back wonderful memories of the summer I once spent hopping freight trains across the country.
