In between errands, I had a few minutes to spare. It was a little before two and Amtrak’s Pennsylvanians were due. So I repaid a visit to the Conestoga River bridge in Lancaster, Pa., and scored both east and westward trains just a few minutes apart.

I had just enough time to relocate between trains. The nice thing about the P42 hauled consists is the tell-tale chug of their GE FDL prime movers that gives a few seconds notice before the train rolls into view.

My intent was to make use of the reflection of the bridge and train in the river.

Both images were made using my Nikon Z6 with 24-70mm zoom.
