ACS-64 in the Snow - 3 seconds and a cloud of dust
Author: cr2581

That's about all it took to get this extreme telephoto shot of train 19 at Cornwells Heights today.

And most of the snow had already dissipated ......

Enjoy !

Damn! That is one very cool shot! If you don't mind, what was the focal length?

Great photo! To add a little depth perspective, the catenary structures are about 225 feet apart. Count back six, and that's 1/4 mile.

260-270 ft is typical.
