Did anyone else submit a picture for Trackside Vol 214 that wants to share what they sent in? Here's my "Partial CN Family Portrait" featuring a WC logo on a boxcar bracketed by a CN GP40 and an EJE SD38.

Nice. And it shows creativity - not just a roster shot or a snapshot.

Your image is certainly better than the ones offered in the official contest. You got my vote!
I think yours is clever and well done, too, Dan! Had it been in the competition, I would have voted for it.

I actually enjoyed this edition of the photo contest. I can't tell you the last time I liked 75% of the submissions. Usually it is hard to like even one of them.
Dan's photo above is so clever it looks like he paid big $$$ to CN to stage the photo.

So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll.

We had a cut of 4 green BN hoppers come in on the inbound train last week. All looked good, too. Too bad it was dark and I was working. It's rare to see a group like that together out here.
It's been fun. But it isn't much fun anymore. Signing off for now.

Bruce,
I spotted the boxcar between the power that was putting it's train together. It was a matter of timing and a bit of luck.
Thanks for the compliments folks. This was a different theme for Trackside and it was fun thinking along those lines.
This was not submitted, although in hindsight maybe I should have.

Certainly an interesting catch John.

Fallen Flags, squared. Cool, in it's own way.
Hey Dan,
Sorry your shot didn't get picked. It is a random selection after all.
It's very cool. I dig the creativity.
