it doesnt seem to me there's place enough for a man stretching out under the train. wrong feeling ?

@v4liumfrance I would not recommend finding out. I'm thinking it's a good way of dying.

Hmmm..... too bad this camera wasn't placed at the track joint, so we can hear the clickitee-clack of the wheels! ;) Was this a Union Pacific? I knoticed some hoppers and tank-cars!

THANKS! MORE! MORE!

[AllenRockwell]

Yah... that's getting harder to do these days with the fancy new welded continuous rail. Maybe next time I'll do it at a switch frog or something.

Nice shot! I would do the same if i wasnt paranoid about my camera getting destroyed by dragging equipment.

And NO hot-boxes detected!

I'm not an expert or anything, but I think it says PALM SPRINGS!
