May 18, 2018 – The last light of the day begins to fade from the sky as Southern Steam engine 401 idles at Stair Tower at the Monticello Railway Museum, in Monticello, Illinois.
The Monticello Railway Museum, is an all-volunteer organization in central Illinois with an operational railroad main line yard open to the public.
They offer train rides on Saturdays and Sundays from May through October, regardless of weather conditions, as well as a number of special events throughout the year. This scene was captured during the Southern Rail Productions Photo Charter event, held Thursday and Friday. – #jimstrainphotos #kentuckyrailroads #trains #nikond800 #railroad #railroads #train #railways #railway #southern401 #southernsteam #steamtrain #southernrailproductions #monticellorailwaymuseum
