....The CN train in the photo and low sun light and colored leaves makes for a nice photograph...

That was one of those photos that all you can say about it is "Wow!"

I'm going to have to see about getting some rail pics that are more than reference pics...

Actually I made that animation for avatars on other forums. Here it is enlarged making it very bad quality. If you click on it you can see what it was supposed to be.

I used Adobe ImageReady to make it. Another software you can use is Animation Shop 3, if you have either one, it's really easy.
