Norfolk and Western 475 heads west on the Strasburg Railroad as the glow of the rising sun illuminates the train and steam as the cold November air produces a spectacular show of steam trailing over the train, off into the distance, as the train approaches the Esbenshade Road Crossing on September 9th, 2021 at Strasburg, Pennsylvania. 

This is the first of many photos from my week-long road trip with fellow photographer Ryan Scott of Steelrails here on Facebook. We covered a total of over 2,300 miles, railfanning through the states of Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania on the way to participate in the Historic Transport Preservation, Inc, Steam Special where we met up with fellow friend Bryan Burton.

It was a long, but outstanding railfan trip and we want to give a special shoutout to, Ethan Brodie, Albert Acker, Ryan Bruno, Ben Sutton, and others along the way that helped us during our trip with information and locations to shoot! With out your help and that of others we couldn’t have done this trip as successfully! 

Tech Info: Nikon D800, RAW, Sigma 24-70 @ 24mm, f/2.8, 1/400, ISO 220.
