I’m in the final phases of my book Union Pacific and its Predecessors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the photos I’ve been sifting through are images I exposed on film between 1990 and 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this Fujichrome slide looking west along Union Pacific’s Chicago & North Western east-west mainline west of of Ashton, Illinois on the evening of November 10, 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time I was working with a pair of Canon EOS-3 film cameras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
