    You have done what others dream of... you've captured a moment in time on a real railroad. Your use of lighting and depth of field sets this photo apart!
    Pretty good resolution too. What camera, lens, film, f/stop etc.
    It makes a good lesson for all of us.

    When in doubt, empty your magazine.

    No guys, this is actually HO scale, taken at my club. The shot angle required a blue backscreen, so the picture HAS been modified slightly, or else you would see the aisle and other side of the RR. From the trees on the right in the background up is all added to the picture using photoshop 5.5. Nothing else has been changed though.

    The KayDee coupler gave it away! I wish the "Brothers of Draft Gear" could make the MicroTrains and KayDee couplers a little more scale in appearance, but boy do they operate flawlessly! Great Pic! This is getting to be a tough "contest"!

    I'm with Mr. Plant. If the couplers were more like like, I would have taken it for a oprating loco. Great, great shot. I haven't seen many model shots that are this good.

    Keep up the good work.
