NNG, looking for a specific b/w photo of running meet with two F-units...

Over the years, I've seen a photograph reproduced several times of (I think) two F-units in a running meet right at a railroad crossing. The photo is in black and white, and the trains are heavily blurred. I remember reading there was commentary that people thought the photographer faked the whole thing, due to the incredible coincidence of catching both of them at exact same spot. While several other train buffs around me have seen the photo and know which one I'm talking about, several say they have never seen it. I've spent a lot of time looking for it online, and can't find it. Does anybody know which photo I'm talking about, and if so, do they know where I might find it online to show people?
