BNSF 9903 In Tunnel 1 - 7/2001

  • Fuji FP6900 Digital Camera
  • BNSF 9903 pokes it's head out of Tunnel 1 on the former DRGW Moffat Route. This unit is leading a new coal train that I *believe* originates at Grand Junction, Colorado.
EMD 9031 East At Tonville - 5/2001

  • Fuji FP6900 Digital Camera
  • EMD 9031 and BNSF 7257 reflect nicely off the small pond at Tonville, Colorado.
Oakway Leasing Panoramic Shot At Tonville, Colorado - 4/2001

  • Canon F1N, Canon 80-200mm f4L, Fuji Provia
  • A set of Oakway Leasing SD60's lead a train in this panoramic view of Tonville, Colorado. This photograph was created by shooting seven different frames and morphing them all together to create this about 140 degree view. Use your bottom scrollbar to scroll across the entire scene.
BNSF 4969 At Longmont - 4/2001

  • Nikon CP 990 Digital Camera
  • It's twilight, 38 degrees, a steady, ice cold rain is falling, and I shot this photograph using a Nikon CP990 digital camera set to ASA 400 with a 3x teleconverter. Personally, I love this photo, the heavy "grain" lends to the mood of the dark, cold, rainy evening.
