Northbound trains are difficult to photograph on most of CSX's Main Line Subdivision due to the fact it's fairly difficult to find a location that has the sun putting light on the lead engine's nose. I decided to try a panning shot instead of the usual "wedge". CSX #5014 leads train Q534 north at Glendale,KY at track speed(about 50 mph).
