    Thanks, The middle unit is not really a unit. It is an RCL Control Car. Ex SP B23 I think. They sandwich these with two non-RCL control equipped engines and MU them to this so they can use any engine via RCL. Chris Walker

    Good composition. I like how you seemingly avoided leading directly to the 4 corners, thus maintaining a "just out of the box" feel. A bump in the contrast would certainly help, but overall I like the image very much. Chris

    Excellent ... like the location also with the low view and the sky and mountains still visible in the background. Chris
