Lunar Signal? (1 IMG)

Good Morning All,

Here’s a shot near my house that I nabbed a week and a half ago. When I saw the crescent moon, I knew I had to shoot it and the signal on the BNSF Golden Branch at Tennyson St is sort of my default subject when I can’t find anything else to shoot:

C&C welcome as always!

The constable was on duty late one evening last month when he spotted a “shining light” glowing over Clent Hills, a range of scenic peaks which rise up more than 1,000ft in Worcestershire.

He radioed his sergeant, telling him he was “off up the hills” to investigate the “suspicious bright light” from ‘over the other side of the hills’.

Have any train crews called signal maintainers out over such a mysterious bright object that confused them?

It’s it the books. Indication is: entering or leaving dark territory. OR, in ABS the indication is: &*%$ maintainer left his wrench on the step again.

I like the amount of detail seen on the back of the signal head, as well as the reflections visible on the bracket holding the signal head to the mast. Also impressive is the faint Earthglow.

Expensive equipment does not make a good photographer; however, in the hands of a good photographer, expensive equipment can yield very impressive results.

Very nice, Chris.

Phew! For a moment there, I was thinking of another “lunar” aspect:

Once again, though, Chris nails a winner!
