Predeal, Romania July 11, 2007.
I had visions of wolves howling in distant ravines, silhouettes of bats flitting through the air against a luminescent full moon, and an aged caped gentleman speaking in a thickly accented voice. . .
Then I arrived in Romania by train from Budapest and reality interrupted my fantastic imaginations!
Turns out that Predeal, at the summit of the Transylvania Alps, is a great place to photograph trains. No bats, no moon, no wolves; not that I saw anyway.
The weedgrown right-of-way is deceptive. The mainline is electrified and heavily traveled.
On the afternoon of July 11, 2007, I exposed this image south of the summit a Predeal of a Compania Naţională de Căi Ferate (Romania National Railways) electric leading an oil train.
