September 5, 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were driving around Germany’s Mosel Valley looking for vistas with the railroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a vineyard above the village of Hatzenport, we paused to take in this view. About every two hours a pair of Class 151 electrics would come along leading a loaded coal train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our timing was good and I made this view of the heavy train snaking through the village using my FujiFilm XT1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are three variations of the same file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
