Re: Mein Post es hat [nicht] drei Photo, aber funf . . .

Hi, All -

Michael, Scott, the two Nathans, Dave-from-Ohio, Steve, Jim, Peter, the JèBéWêX and nearly everyone else on the Springtime excursion got better photos than I did.  In fact, I really boo-boo'd at the first run-by and chopped off #489's pilot just as she passed over The Troll's fancy new digs at m.p. 287.5, so I'm posting the previous frame.

I'm posting these three {now five} and the ones that follow mainly because I promised to send some prints to a couple of the 'green paint fund' donors who couldn't join us for the trip, and need to let them choose which ones they'd like copies of – so here are the first three.   (Plus two more, since the NGDF has upped the attachment limit to five in the meanwhile.)

Whistling for the crossing at Main Street - Trollhausen, Co.:


Approaching Lava Tank:


Lava Tank, where the troll reached up out of the sand and grabbed my ankle (added 05/25/20):


Milepost 294.2, approximately - an impromptu run-by where brush needs to be cleared from the right-of-way:


. . . and a bit farther on, where there's a fill at the apex of the curve that I had hoped to shoot, but we rolled about 1/4 mile too far:


The somewhat eccentric & cranky (per his avatar) Steve Forney shot an EXCELLENT video at this curve a couple of years later — see his YouTube link at [ngdiscussion.net].    

. . . to be continued.
