The hordes of Smithers Lake coal trains usually had mostly BN power, so to catch one with all ATSF was a catch indeed. What you see: nice train coming out of a curve. What you DON'T see: that great big 2 inch long garden spider crawling up my left arm onto my shoulder. Thank goodness I had the camera around my neck; with all the thrashing and flailing that ensued once I saw that creature on me, it certainly would have been thrown 50 feet. Big tough guy don't likee spiders....
For the train and storm chaser. Trains with thunderstorms, dark clouds, rain, lightning, hurricanes - tropical storms, funnel clouds, storm light, rainbows, and snow storms.
