Good morning,

Congratulations to Theresa Cramer! Her photo of the coaling tower in DeKalb, Illinois is now in line to be published in Trains magazine.

This week's Trackside with Trains theme is "Glass." Send us your best shot of railroad-related glazing, windows, head lamps, signal lenses, passenger car windows, lanterns, dashboard components, etc.

Please submit your images by Noon CST Thursday, July 16, 2015, to trackside@trains.com. Voting will begin on Monday, July 20, 2015. The winning submission may get published in a future issue of the magazine.

Thanks,

Drew
