Amtrak ACS-64 #600 -Sweet!
Author: Mgoldman

Well - I think I finally got it!

After shooting Sprinters for months at Levittown, I FINALLY got the angle, lighting
and weather I was after. And placement - right between the old PRR position lights!

No easy feat shooting at a "mere" 6 fps. At over 100 mph I was always catching the
train just ahead or behind this exact spot - and often times cutting off some odd
structure in the attempt. Not this time - and all I can say is; "Next".

But then again... there's still the Winter shot with snow, right?

Enjoy!

Nice picture and thanks for posting it.

On a personal note, I always think of Mad Magazine's Spy vs Spy when I see pictures of an ACS-64 from the front.

I think it looks like Yosemite Sam's eyes.

Looks like the 600 has Mickey Mouse ears.
