Railroad picture of the evening
When we were driving around this evening, we spotted a train parked at the north end of Brooklyn Yard. When we turned around to look at it, we realized that the UP was using reflective tape for the striping, railroad name, and locomotive number on this SD40-2. I took about 20 pictures with the camera set for night pictures, and one actually turned out (the rest were too blurry; you need to leave the shutter open a long time, even with our car shining its headlights on the engine to make it more reflective, to get any sort of night picture, and if you have the temerity to breathe while the picture is s-l-o-w-l-y printing onto the CCD, the locomotive ends up looking like you dipped it in cotton wool.)
