The Test of Time
Author: funnelfan

A piece of outdated farm technology sits on the brink of the Lind Coulee quietly observing the march of time pass it by. For untold decades the machine has remained stationary as trains have struggled to the top of Providence Hill. At first it was steam locomotives pulling cars made of wood and steel. Later the first generation of diesel electrics, and now the latest AC traction locomotives with remotely controlled locomotives. What will pass this way in the future? I won't always be around to observe, but this machine may very well might be.

Great shot of the train in the sweeping "S" curve along with the old farm machinery.
