Rovertrain.... rovers and trains!!! - Land Rovers Only

rovertrain · 11-11-2007, 06:54 PM

Not sure how many know this, but I'm in Kansas City taking a Railroad college course to become a conductor. So this morning me and a buddy were out watching trains (something I do regularly) and I was driving so I decided to incorporate my rover into some of the shots. The first one I was up on a highway overpass and the red train is the Missouri and Northern Askansas RWY. Then I parked next to the tracks a few miles down the road. The train was only doing about 10-15mph so the slow old rover could catch it easily. Then later in the afternoon, I really had to go to the bathroom so i left my buddy by the tracks with the camera and those are the shots he took of me driving away. The sunset really added to the picture I think.
