NKP 2-8-4 Class S-2 765         
NKP 2-8-4 Class S-2 765 at Secor, Illinois on May 11, 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Pretty good shot of a street light too. In the digital age, there's probably an app for that, but in the Jurassic age, you had to remember to use your pole filter.

G Gerard General Tough shot indeed. In addition to poles, with steam, you had to figure out the wind direction, just in case it pushed the smoke between the sun and the engine. Thank you for posting. 4/14/2015 10:06:04 AM
Bob Courtney General Still, its a nice shot. The photo line can sometimes add a composition element or create a better story. 4/14/2015 10:37:53 AM
