Excellent shot..!! Very well done my dear friend..!
Congrats…
The neighborhood I grew up in had trains going through it and the track was a block from my house. I love the sounds of the trains !
The trains passed right in front of my grandparents home at the other end of town. (The train men were the first visitors to see my newborn mother and her twin brother back in June 1936.)
My great-grandfather met the train at the station with a horse-drawn wagon, and loaded the mail bags to take to the Post Office.
When me moved to our home in 1977, the trains were still running through the town we now live in, but the electric company stopped using coal and using that line of tracks and it has been unused since the early 1980′s….I really miss the sounds of the trains passing through.
Sometimes in the summer, when the windows are open, I can hear the trains in Hurlock, 6 miles away. And I smile.
Great treatment, Bill !!

I love your newest style….this one brought memories of my childhood…one set of grandparents lived near RR tracks which ran right through a residential area. I remember going down every day when the train was scheduled to pass…the engineer would slow waaay down and wave, and throw wrapped candy to me…thanks for the memories…
Excellent shot Bill! I love railroad shots, 2 years ago my creation for Christmas it was a train depot made all out of sugar, I hope you are having great Sunday so far:-)
That is very good work my frend!
Fabulous…..lovely work my friend Bill !!

beautiful capture and treatment, and very interesting caption, Bill !
Beautiful shot, Bill! I grew up close to the tracks and I still live within a quarter mile of the tracks. I seldom hear them unless I’m outside.
Excellent work Bill
So nice. Must be entertaining, sitting and watching the trains sometimes.
I agree, Bill. I love the sound of trains, and only learned recently that each horn sound has meaning. We hear ours across the river every morning and it always makes me smile.
Trains are romantic!
Cool to be able to sit on your back porch and see all that goes by Bill! As a kid when visiting my cousin in Sudbury we use to put pennies on the tracks and after the train went by they were almost paper thin It was great fun!

Just a wonderful look. The sounds of trains make me feel lonely, strange it is.
Very nice Bill.
When we were young we went on a cross country tent trip. One late night we pulled into a KOA campground and after finding the manager got a tent site. All I could do to get it up and get in my sleeping bag. It was cold and wet.
Drifted off to sleep and was dreaming. There was a loud roaring in my dream and I was running.. I woke up and our tent was swaying and it was ROARING outside.. Ha, we were just on the other side of the railway right a way. Oh man.. My heart was in my throat.. A long train was rumbling by. As you can tell, it left an impression!

must be cool to watch the trains rolling past
you could make a video too especially if there are unsuspecting campers nearby, lol
Looks like a widescreen shot, nicely done and I appreciate
your background info. Enjoy your week!
Your ancestors are just gonna love you. All this stuff documented, not just with images but real information as well. I wish someone in my family had done that Ithough with the house fires I’m sure it wouldn’t have helped).
I still love the post processing you do.
Very nicely composed
Wonderful shot,my friend!

Beautiful winter scene, great work.
Nice shot of the trains. It would be fun to sit on the deck and watch the trains go by.
Excellent image. Well done.
beautiful shot my friend… çok güzel
Lovely shot!
Beautiful light.
What a great neighbour to have!
I like choo choo trains too especially cargo trains but preferably not in my front yard. Interesting panoramic shot.
Wonderful Picture Bill! I love to hear the train whistle and to be able to watch the train from your back yard must be a treat!!!!
so lovely picture.
Thank you for visiting and comments, Bill.
Ohhh – I love the "hidden" train back there. So great!
Awesome work my dear friend!
Wonderful shot !
Wonderful capture my friend

How lovely…I bet it must feel a bit nostalgic…to watch the trains…listen to them as they click on the tracks…nice work, my friend.
Great rail image and reportage, Bill.
I think we were wise in our choice of Streetsville guide!!
Nicely composed!

trains are fantastic, i think they take your imagination far away. the railroad is a metaphor of the life itself.
good shot and interesting text as always
Wonderful shot Bill – I remember a song about the Canadian Pacific trains – this is the first time I’v seen a picture of one!!
I like this – the snow carved outline is very effective and pretty!
Great frame.
Very nice idea.
Great how the red comes out inbetween all the brown and white branches, trees and gardenplants.
Cool!

Beautiful treatment Bill!
Very lovely
Beautifully composed shot with nice processing!
I love the red tones and the snow outline on the branches. Nice shot.
Love this picture with the snow (not much), sun, and great composition.
Unfortunately, I’m short on time for reading all the history, but I did read your experiences with the railroad. We aren’t quite as close to the railroad, but there are two sets of tracks within fairly-close hearing distance, and I rarely ever hear them. We also have planes flying in low over the back yard approaching PDX for landing—–we rarely hear them either, only when trying to converse out back in the summer or when on the phone out back. Most of the year we’re stuck indoors because of the rain
I LOVE the picture you took and the treatment—–makes it feel nostalgic and romantisizes the railroad. (I know….the spelling)
Very impressive scene well composed.
