Trackside with Trains.com vol. 146 THEME ANNOUNCEMENT: "EMD's 60 line"
Posted by Matt Quandt on Friday, August 20, 2010 12:19 PM

As we shared earlier this week, each round of our biweekly photo competition, Trackside with Trains.com, now will feature one reader-submitted image. Today, we announce the next round's theme:

The theme for Trackside vol. 146 will be: EMD’s 60 line. Any variation on the GP60 and SD60 will qualify. See the roster books for what qualifies; all the Class Is roster something from the 60 line.

The deadline for volume 146 reader submissions is Thursday, August 26.

All submissions must meet the following criteria, please use this list as a checklist before you send in your image:

  • Your image must be relevant to the round’s theme.
  • Only .jpgs will be accepted. PLEASE NO SCANS, only digital images.
    Images must be no larger than 1024 pixels wide.
  • E-mail your image to trackside@trains.com. Any image e-mailed to a different address will not be considered.
  • When you e-mail your photo, please make the subject line: “Trackside vol. XXX submission.” For example, this round is volume 146, so the e-mail subject line should read, “Trackside vol. 146 submission”
  • Images must be received by the deadline stated in each round's theme announcement.
  • Your image must have a description. Please limit the description to 200 words or less. Include relevant camera and photo details in your description. View previous “Trackside with Trains.com” rounds for examples.
  • Please include your full name and hometown with your submission. 
Finally, remember, this is a friendly competition. Participants do not receive compensation. Winners do not receive prizes.
