Well, I used to think that you have to take every photo or drawing to someplace to copyright it. Then, I found out that the copyright law says if you take a picture or make a drawing, you have the sole rights to that picture or drawing, therefore, it is copyrighted under your name.

First off.....Where were these taken at? And also where the Hell did you see the AMTK B32-8WH unit, was it on the Eagle or Ann Rutlage or something? AND the UP 2193 and the 6032 Alstom I had on Friday coupled to a Manifest train at Dexter, Missouri....small world. [:D]

The Uncle Pete shots were taken at the Dupo, IL yard, along with the CN unit. The ex. SP, T.R.R.A. SD40 was found at the T.R.R.A.'s Madison yard, just outside of E. St. Louis, IL (we didn't spend much time there, you St. Louis people know why). The crew running the 2193 (SD60) threw their UP rulebook/timetable out to me, that was so cool! The first shot of 2193 (color) was taken just before he threw the book to me. Zach, do you ever get dispatched out of Dupo?

Very nice photo's. What type of camera were you using? I noticed the switch from color to b/w, do you have a digital camera? I have a Kodak that switches, takes great photo's.

I have a Hewlett-Packard Photosmart 945 Digital camera, which in a recent consumer report, was rated the second best digital camera on the market. Right behind the Cannon Digital Rebel (which is like $1000). I seem to like shooting in b/w for some reason, i think it adds character to the photo [;)][:D].
