MOW Equipment!!

After taking the pictuires for the June Contest, I thought I would share a little more of what I did to take the pic! I would like to see a continuing thread on Maintenance of Way equipment, seeing we have the Locomotive and the Freight Car of the Week threads. (great stuff!!) So, I hope some of you would like to toss a few pics up (use the one's you WON'T use for the contest, okay??) Here we go, a series of pics of the scene I made from different angles:





I found that if I switch the camera to manual, it wouldn't pick up the light, so we're working at Dusk:



It was a toss up between this picture and the one I submitted for the Contest.



And one more pic, a helicopter view of the scene:



I use a Kodak Digital DX6340 I bought a few years ago at Radio Shack, and since hooking up with the site, it's been an adventure trying to get better pictures, and setting up the scenes. What a blast!! It's another part of the hobby I'm getting to learn and do more with.
