Yes, it’s a model - 5
8: From Paul Mack: “Early one morning my friend Charlie
and I made the trek out to Baynes Valley trestle hoping to
catch one of the early morning Haulers.
Usually, the valley
reverberates to the sounds of Alco 244 prime movers but this
morning something very different emerged from the rising fog.
SD70MAC said BN on the side and they were huge! After the
train passed, I looked at Charlie and whispered, ‘I don't think
we're in 1952 any more.’
“Charlie Comstock took the photo of my coal train led by BN
SD70MACs on his 1952-era Bear Creek & South Jackson rail-
road. The photo was assembled in Helicon Focus from about
10 different exposures, each at a different focus point. I added
some fog effect and jet contrails using Photoshop Elements.”
