welcome aaron, great shot for your first venture into this fierce battle of photogs, thereby submitting yourself to the gauntlet of either glorious praise or withering criticism from the world's greatest experts in railroad photography, us "Trains" railfans.  Larry

While both shots were good and it was a tough choice this week, I went with Mike's shot. It just appealed to me a little more. I think I would have been persuaded to vote for Aaron's had he used the other 1003 shot with the barn though.

My thoughts exactly.

I think you shouldv've used the one of the IC diesel! That one really appealed to me, even though I voted for your shot anyway. Just my My 2 cents [2c]

Arron,you got my vote with that excellent steam shot.You should run that IC photo in a future contest,but not against a steam picture.I think running a rail grinder shot against a steam photo was the equivilant(sp?) of a bug splatting against a windshield.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
