[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by CARRfan</i> <br />[This photo is unreal. Did you photoshop your loco onto a pic of real track or something? This is incredible. The only thing that's got me 95% convinced it's a model is the diameter of the handrails, and the look of the coupler. <br /> <br />Wow. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Thanks! No the photo was taken in an actual railyard! It was posed on a small diorama with just track, the whole thing sitting on a portable table. The engine in the rear is real prototype one. Realism was attained by the use of a 28mm wide angle lens with a pinhole aperture, which gives almost infinite depth of field. HO scale model by the way, and all on film, no digital effects at all. <br /> <br />Taken way back when the railroad didn't really mind us railfans around the yard. Can't even get into it these days. <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau <br /> <br />
