Had two hours of downtime on Tuesday waiting for a maintenance window, so I spotted my train on this old concrete bridge above Buffalo Creek in Polo, IL. Got a nice case of hives from the weeds and one leg wet in the creek for my efforts.

Sorry, but this made me chuckle.  Thanks for your efforts, though.  Cool pic, especially knowing that you not only set up the shot, but staged the locomotive!
