While probably not considered the best railfan weather, I've always liked a little rain/snow to add some interest to a shot. I decided to head up Coal Creek Canyon. Uncle Pete said he had a couple westbounds and an eastbound on the scanner. Of course, they never showed, but the eastbound CZ did manage to make an appearance. Should've used the 16-35mm on this one and moved a little further up the embankment, but settled for the 24-85mm instead (I've been having a couple focus issues with the 16-35mm, lately). Anyways, here's the product of my efforts, shot at Blue Mountain Road. If nothing else, it earned me a couple stares from those on the Zephyr! [:D][:p]
