CN FUPD local heads into the PAL yard at Paducah, Ky

The daily Canadian National Fulton to Paducah (FUPD) local, led by CN 8887 and 5485 rounds the curve leading into the north end of the Paducah and Louisville Railway yard at Paducah, KY under stormy skies on June 29th, 2021, to do its interchange work.

Many people put their cameras away when the clouds roll in and skies get dark, but for me that’s just when things get interesting! I love how they add drama to the scene and don’t forget, trains operate 24/7 in all kinds of weather! Just because it isn’t sunny and the lights not on the right side of the train, doesn’t mean there isn’t great photos to be had! Personally, I keep a large golf umbrella in the back of my SUV just for bad weather days! Get out there!!

Tech Info: DJI Mavic Air 2 Drone, RAW, 4.5mm (24mm equivalent lens) f/2.8, 1/1000, ISO 100.
