Western Railroad Discussion > Clouds Can Be Your FriendDate: 03/30/20 10:04 Clouds Can Be Your Friend Author: TexBob Clouds have been my nemesis for all of my railfan career, but every so often things fall into place
and suddenly they are my best friend. I got out to railfan a bit last night. The first train to come by me at MP 20 in Stafford,TX was UP 6146 at 1945. It's a Medina,TX to Crosby, TX loaded rock train symboled RMEMT 28. As long as clouds don't affect the lighting of my shot, I'm glad to have 'em.

Very much appreciate the ' Storm Light ' style of photography, for trains but also Wildlife and Landscapes. Drove through this area last year and was amazed how far away from anything the place is. t4p. Date: 03/30/20 11:42 Re: Clouds Can Be Your Friend Author: SP8595 Another Killer shot!
