Today i pushed my luck.
The train should have long been gone by the time of sunrise but i knew these
guys from Berlin are late almost every time.
The schedule said five minutes past seven. But there was nothing to here or to see.
Half past seven the sun slipped over the horizon and at that time the steamtrain stood
right outside the image in the station of Löwenberg waiting for the green light.
But some regular trains had right of way. And so the sun had another 8 minutes to rise
and then it klicked between my hands.

Greetings Andreas
Fantastic lighting- and of course, a magnificent train!

As someone who has chased trains for many years, I have two comments based on experience

(1) this is a really neat scene

(2) train schedules are works of fiction
