I exposed this trailing view of Southern Pacific’s SNTA-C (Skyline Mine, Utah to Trona, California—coal) on its descent of Donner Pass using my Nikon F3T with a Nikkor 200mm lens.

Kodachrome 25 was my film of choice. It performed very well under bright California skies.

Tracking the Light is on Autopilot while Brian is traveling.
