April 22, 2017, I made this photo of MOB’s Golden Pass Panoramic streamlined train rolling through lush fields near Gruben, Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A photo from this sequence appeared in my Railway Guide to Europe, published in 2018 by Kalmbach Books (now Firecrown Media).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make this image, I used a FujiFilm XT1 with 18-135mm lens set to 70mm. By working with a small aperture (f13) and low angle, I’ve captured a perspective that make the scene appear like a model railway. (The scrubbed clean ballast helps too!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
