BNSF 3820 |
Description: |
BNSF 3820 in a sad shot ahead of a sad set of three in the front - because this is the only frame even close to in focus shooting from the awkward position outside the older tennir courts at the high school in the morning shadows before it warms up. Therell be three on the front of this northbound line of covered hoppers and no pusher... and blowing my momentum while actually posting several winning points on the court (a rare occurrence). |

Description: |
BNSF 4035 - BNSF 1122 - BNSF 4305 mixed freight triple headem going north in the view you have to see *while* playing tennis to know a train is coming into Connell from the south - that little, short line of track in the valley between the buildings is the only warning youll get - and heaven help you if you!miss it, because with the new tennis courts, theres no second chance to shoot the trains as they pop out from under the road over-pass and into the little trough between buildings and court fences. |

BNSF 9211 single pusjer southbound covered hopper consist - missed the front set as they managed to sneak into Connell and into our area before it was possible to get off the tennis courts and into position to look down into this narrow little trough where Im now forced to shoot while trying to get in a few sets of tennis before it warms up more than the beloved is willing to whoop me (although it is a good strategy to plan it so it gets warm at the end so I can manage at least an occasional point against her). |

Description: |
BNSF 6893 at the front of four shooting northward with a mixed freight at 3:20 in the afternoon - but the new Sony camera is insisting on a really slow shutter speed (1/160) with ISO 2500 for some reason (f6.3 is "fastest" at this zoom... but, dang... so far Im at a loss because out of ten frames of this consist, only a couple are in focus, those with significant noise (well, ISO 2500, I know, what do I expect)... but quickly losing faith in my decision to change from Canon to Sony, no matter what the glowing Sony reviews say. |

NS 7509 |
Description: |
NS 7509 - second from the front - and worthy of the cutting room floor other than Im begging anyone else packing a Sony pocket snapper to help me figure out what the heck Im doing wrong - I did a very slight pan with the power - Im way the heck up on the ridge - but same place I always shot Canon from, so nothing unusual... (3:21PM, ISO 2500(!), 1/125, f6.3) Im getting ready to de-activate the sensor-shift-shake-minimizing option, although I swear, on the Canon, it actually helped me out some when racked out to 300-600mm equivalent (yes, I know - this at 300 is too far too slow on shutter speed - but again, Canon at ISO 1600 f6.3 1/160 and I was getting these - Ive got the camera atop a fence post (railroad tie - Eastern Washington gets a little wind, so they tend toward serious "posts" for their fences). Or am I now officially an old fart and my hands are shaking too much to hand-hold anything except 1/1000s images? |

Added blue as what little light ricochets through the more than inch of ice laying upon the snow creating the optical illusion of traction - which is quickly dispelled with your first failed footstep from the vehicle. |

BNSF 2554 - BNSF 2553 |
Description: |
BNSF 2554 - BNSF 2553 snow duty pair looking south into Connell appearing adequately bleak - potentially too much so to be all metaphor. Not sure, but when the trains stop sounding for the crossings, usually it means something... maybe the good folks shouldve considered it a little more before insisting on a quiet zone. Usually those non-W at-grade crossings are seldom used cow-road paths... and the folks want to increase traffic through town somehow? ("But not enough to need a traffic light." Eh, good luck with that.) |

BNSF 3779 |
Description: |
BNSF 3779 at the north at-grade crossing... and that little yellow sign says, "No Train Horn" - right, like someone preparing to duck the gate will really pay attention to that... and remember, the Connell north crossing is in a curve with the ladder yard and passing lane to the right of this image - which means you can completely block on-coming rail traffic from view. (Originally I thought I was the only one that thought this was a pretty darn insane idea... the following day I had the good fortune to chat with a returned NP employee that had worked this area and good Mr. White seemed to echo my feelings about how this railroad town is sacrificing safety for short term comfort and quiet.) (Note the "three tracks" are really only "one track" - a single main in the middle with the ladder turn-out to west (far side of crossing) and maintenance spur heading off to the left of the frame (toward the oldest depot and now staging area). |

BNSF 6363 |
Description: |
BNSF 6363 rushing into Connell to start the onslaught - as soon as the north signal by the ladder yard (and stopped BNSF 3915) would flick to yellow, thered be a pause and itd start flashing to suggest the block was almost clear - turned out to be a consistent interval to move into position for the next northbound which would come sailing (silently - crossings protected handily by those little yellow signs! (Did I mention I was having a great time visiting with Mr. White (retired Northern Pacific employ) about the idiocy of such things? It was neat to talk with a fellow railroad buff while watching freight roll by... of course, sun and some warmth mightve been nice, but I was still glad he was willing to take time out of his daily walk to chat... and heres public record to his better half, who apparently runs him out of the house each day for exercise (whence he walks down by the tracks in a circuit through the crossings) - your husband was exercising - we paced back and forth across the bridge (some of the time... when we werent holding up the guardrail)... where was I? Sorry, retired brain syndrome. Oh, yeah... Would come sailing by hot on the heels of the previous consist. |

Title: |
BNSF 8021 |
Description: |
BNSF 8021 starboard side after walking across the at-grade crossing for an opposing view and clear shot along the super-elevated curve that permits safer increased velocity for those getting a yellow or green to silently streak into Connells dual death traps... I mean, "W-QZ" roadway crossings. (I emphasize, *not* the railroads fault the town opted for silent crossings.) |
