July 25, 1997.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve often liked to make detailed studies of equipment. On this day, George S. Pitarys, Bill Linley and I had been following a westward Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia freight.<\/p>\n

\"Cape<\/a>
Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia Montreal Locomotive Works M630 on July 25, 1997.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In the evening it stalled near Afton and had to double the hill. This made for ample opportunity to make photos.<\/p>\n

At one point when the train was stopped, I used my N90S with a 28mm lens to expose this backlit study of an M630 that was second unit in the consist.<\/p>\n

I like the image for its great contrast and its ability to distill the curves and lines of the Alco Century profile. It\u2019s moody, dark, and all about Alco.<\/p>\n
