I Made the Image Anyway

This image had two strikes against it before it even stepped up to the plate.

The light was as flat as it could be given the overcast skies and rainy conditions.

And No. 8103 was trailing. But it was the Norfolk & Western heritage unit and that’s a locomotive I’ve only photographed once before.

In fact this was only the third time that I’ve seen it. And it had the bonus value of being on former N&W rails.

So I pulled out my phone and made this image. It’s not great, but at least it is an image of the only out of the ordinary sighting of the day.
