It had been about 20 years since my last visit to the Main Line at Tyrone, Pennsylvania, where Norfolk Southern’s former Pennsylvania Railroad tracks make a sharp curve through the narrow valley along the Little Juniata River the south end of town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, Kris and I pulled up to theTyrone Amtrak station, and when I stepped out of the car I could hear the distant sounds of General Electric diesels chugging east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We didn’t have long to wait and soon a headlight appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with my Nikon Z6 with 70-200mm zoom, I made this series of photos. Telephoto compression in the tight curve at the station makes it look like I was much closer to the tracks that I really was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Auto focus made it much easier to keep the locomotives looking sharp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
