CSXT 397 leads loaded coal train Z419 across the Ohio River at Henderson, Kentucky as they head south on the Henderson Subdivision. The train ran from the Evansville Western Railway to Atkinson Yard at Madisonville, Ky where it was picked up by a Paducah and Louisville Railway crew, who took it on south on their line to the loadout at Calvert City, KY on February 18th, 2022. I love the way the shadows play a big part in this image! I did a live video here of this train and it was really cool to watch the shadows come across the bridge before the train came into view. It’s on my page if you’d like to watch it. I’ve been wanting to catch this shot for some time now.

Nevada Northern Railway steam locomotive #93 pulls a wreck train southbound towards Robinson Canyon as it departs Ely, Nevada on the final day of their 3-day Winter Photography Charter on February 13th, 2022. According to Wikipedia: “The Nevada Northern Railway Museum is a railroad museum and heritage railroad located in Ely, Nevada and operated by a historic foundation dedicated to the preservation of the Nevada Northern Railway. The museum is situated at the East Ely Yards, which are part of the Nevada Northern Railway. The site is listed on the United States National Register of Historic Places as the Nevada Northern Railway East Ely Yards and Shops and is also known as the "Nevada Northern Railway Complex". The rail yards were designated a National Historic Landmark District on September 27, 2006. The site was cited as one of the best-preserved early 20th-century railroad yards in the nation, and a key component in the growth of the region's copper mining industry. Developed in the first decade of the 20th century, it served passengers and freight until 1983, when the Kennecott Copper Company, its then-owner, donated the yard to a local non-profit for preservation. The property came complete with all the company records of the Nevada Northern from its inception.” Locomotive #93 is a 2-8-0 that was built by the American Locomotive Company in January of 1909 at a cost of $17,610. It was the last steam locomotive to retire from original revenue service on the Nevada Northern Railway in 1961 and was restored to service in 1993.
