GM - It's a shame to see a D&RGW car in that state.... but, at the same time, it looks like it would be quite a challenge to capture. MM did one of those not *too* long ago.
uspscsx, this one's for you! The track was below the parking lot we were in and I took this shot while standing on my truck toolbox. You can make out a little of the roof detail. It had just rained, so that's why it has the wet look.
Some more... I got a few as you can tell, I wish i was good enough with the brush to make some of these! By the way, one of thses shots looks like one of our own members here got into taggin ;-) but I hope it wasn't him!
and s'more... Lets see who can recognize the owner of that orange covered hopper, then point out what ELSE they own... Oh hey, I think... if someone can figure out a php picture host of some sort, I can host a "Freight Car Modelers Index", I have the space, and subdomains! Also, the BNSF box, look close, there's alot of rust above the truck on the left.
Last ones for now, until I go out again, maybe next weekend. These shots will be harder to use, but can give ideas, I was shooting across the valley, was actually hoping for a train on the bottom tracks... Picture #2 I included for modern modelers to see the supprising amounts of graffiti on them, and the older ATSF shock control box.
