 Yeah... I'm pretty sure that it was not legal to be standing on the tracks when I heard the whistle. I jumped off... but there are cliffs on both sides of the tracks.

I was against the cliff... ten feet away from the track... when this train FLEW by. Of course, I had my camera safely up to my eye.

I'm so proud that my pants were still dry.

I don't know what L & N means. The image looks like tons of steel speeding down the tracks. Can you imagine a title describing the image?
