Had time in between errands and events today and went to Balmer Yard in Seattle. Also tried to get ahead of a coal train with a Grinstein Green in the consist going over Ballard Bridge but just out of my camera range. Gotta get a better camera!
Stopped by the grain terminal just south of Balmer Yard. Some activity there; had a green light for a northbound train but 30 minutes later and no train I had to get going.

Nice shots. If you are looking for a new camera, check out Kenmore Camera's new store in Kenmore.

My wallet always lets out a big grown when I step inside Kenmore and the sales staff start salivating like Pavlov's dogs.

Agreed...which is why I have pushed it off for so long. I'll take a quick peak. I'll run through the store and run out. haha.

Leave your wallet locked in your car.
It was pretty wet today at Howarth Park. A brief break in weather which was nice but not long.
