MOAY hammering uphill with eastbound autorack loads |
Description: |
Taken from the Hansen Road overpass. Schaghticoke Hill is where the former B&M climbed out of the Hudson River valley. I don't know this for a fact, but I surmise that this climb up from the Hudson River might be the eastbound ruling grade on Pan Am district 3. |

But no; the manifest stayed in the hole, allowing a hotter eastbound intermodal to pass with run-through power - MOAY |
Description: |
You can see from the light that the sun is sinking in the west. My eastbound chase commences in waning daylight... |

MOAY on the reverse-S curve leading into Johnsonville |
Description: |
The train was rolling along at 35-40 MPH at this point, and chasing it was a challenge. I ended up arriving at my intended photo location about 45 seconds before the train. I got this telephoto shot that shows the train rounding the first curve of the reverse S-curve leading into Johnsonville and illuminated with orange light from the setting sun. This ended up being my favorite photo of the day, and it was a surprise bonus. The photo I had been intending to take here is the next one in sequence... |

MOAY eastbound over the Hoosic River Bridge |
Description: |
The bridge is just upstream of the falls for which the town is named. This was my final photo in the chase due to rapidly diminishing daylight. |
