Thanks, the humidity worked once it got a little light but ruined the earler darker night shots as the light flared around the headlights creating a blob.

Posted from iPhone Date: 10/10/15 11:44 Re: TP & W Fairbury Turn- Return Trip at Cruger Illinois Author: ubee1964 It would be if Conrail had not torn up former PRR Columbus to Chciago Mainline between Bradford, Ohio and Buckeye Yard in Columbus which is also one of the reasons why Buckeye Yard was retired.
