I feel sorry for the passengers on that PSNJ bus, they have been waiting for months to get across the tracks!

I think that the one next to 8385 just might need a little bit of work itself.

As usual, good stuff.

ALL great, really like the shot(s) of the "J".

The 611 doesnt get old. Like EVER!

Hearing that whistle just brings chills up your arm ( well for me it does!)

I think the passengers gave up & walked at this point!

Christopher,
The photo above with the UP loco has a really interesting mixture of colors and textures.
This would make another great scene to model.

Thanks! I've wanted this shot for a while, but you can only get it when cloudy. A very similar shot at this spot was in the NS company calendar last year
