You have to love Fs, the crewman on the ladder is perfect, and it seems funny to say it, but somehow the CN truck just makes the composition complete. The separation between the red and black is amazing - did you use a red filter? Thanks for sharing this.

Great.

KG Date: 01/07/17 05:22 Re: The "Skeena" at Terrace 1973 Author: perklocal What a great image. I even like the loader sticking out on the flat car over in the yard. Back when ditch lights were an add-on accessory. Sometimes black and white just creates the mood. Thank you !

Being 1973, are the cars in the two-color (colour) grey scheme while the F-unit is in the newer red nose with black car body and the big white stripes? t4p. Date: 01/07/17 20:41 Re: The "Skeena" at Terrace 1973 Author: longhaul Such a great photo!
