Railroad picture(s) of the day
Today, "of the day" means "the only ones I got"; even a good camera won't get me out unless the subject has pantographs (and is pulling freight; there are plenty of railroad vehicles with pantographs around here) or first-generation ALCO locomotives. But we did have other chores, which involved driving past Brooklyn Yard a couple of times...
When we were driving up to SCRAP (they were having their annual garage sale this weekend, so by the time we got there the place was picked clean. I found a few pretty glass tiles, but that was about it) we spotted a train parked just north of Brooklyn Yard, on the other side of a barbed wire fence. Fortunately there was a nearby tree that let me climb far enough to clear the barbed wire fence (and fortuately the *istDS has manual focus, so I could get something other than high resolution pictures of the fence with a blurry locomotive behind it.)
On the way back (from SCRAP, et al) we took 99E down to Bybee, and just as we exited 99E, we saw a train proceeding north into the yard. The train was moving slowly enough so we could stop and get a few more pictures.
