I can't help being reminded of Alfred Sieglitz's photo The Terminal, New York (1892), which also involved turning a streetcar/tram at the end of the line.

Happy to remind you of a truly great photo!

I had some time to kill between getting off work and going to the dentist yesterday morning, so I figured I'd wander around with my camera for a bit. I was packing my camera up when I heard the train horn, and set back up. When the driver shut the lights off, I thought the last one would be my favourite of them, but I think that goes to the first one with the headlights from the side of the frame.

Very nice photo. One of my regrets in life was passing on buying a '62 Corvette similar to the one in your photo. A buddy of the time, had bought one in LA, brought it up north, drove it for a few months, then offered it to me, for $ 5000 CAD. This was in 1978, a long time ago. It had the 4 speed manual and a built up (non stock) 327 V8.

Took it for a run, quite impressive back then.

Paul, how easy it is for a photo to engender feelings of envy and jealousy!

Thanks guys! This example was special for me, too. All business, minimal frills, totally cool.

Those capture the mystique of railroads with a massive locomotive coming straight toward you through the dark and mist. Nicely done
