Steamtown Night Shots and one DL Alco Shot

Thanks to Lerro Productions for the lighting on these shots last night: Even without a new paint job, the Reading 2124 looks good: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=323461 Big Boy 4012 almost looks alive with a little Lerro Productions magic: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=323457 And one DL shot, the combo grain and propane train exits Nay Aug Tunnel. This was the first time I had seen a train exit the tunnel on this track: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=323462 Thanks for looking, Darryl

Lit up those links for you.

A few more to add to Darryl’s pics, all part of a test shoot for upcoming night photo charters throughout the year by Lerro Productions. Visit the site at: Lerro Productions

…Nice night photos…If only the headlights could have been lit.

That can be a problem, especially at night. In this shot, the headlight is on dim…

Sometimes they can be - sometimes not. In this case, we were testing new equipment and didn’t get that elaborate. A small motorcycle battery will sometimes do the trick, or an auxiliary lighting within the housing, or even a tight spot light aimed at the headlight itself will do the trick. /Mitch
