Photo by Mark Andrews. I love this shot, very Philip R. Hastings.

Tell Mark that next time, he should yell at that guy to get out of the picture ;)

Where is this photo location? Are you across the street at RRMPa?

John -

I like the shot too. Very human interest. But don't blame the guy for being in the picture; he was obviously just doing his job. But if Mr. Andrews had moved just a bit to his right, he would have put the guy a bit more "off center" , not blocked any of the 4-8-0 and thus made a somewhat better photo.

But, then he'd be standing on the track, which tends to pi$$ off crews.

Durn plate-washers ... Git outta the picture, is it?
