I didn&#8217;t want to over complicate things, so I restricted my photographic efforts to just four cameras: Two Nikon digital, plus my Fuji XT1, and a Nikon F3 loaded with Ektachrome. Kris thought this was excessive, but <em>hey<\/em>! the sun was out and the railroad was alive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I made this view using my Nikon Z6 70-200mm lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
