Old Highway 10 Overpass

On my way home from DL today I chased a stack train from near Frazee east to Perham. When I rejoined the tracks east of Perham I was a couple of train lengths ahead and gaining. I have wanted to try this shot for a while and since the sun was not right for any shots of an eastbound thought I would give it a try. Result: Not a thrilling success but you have to experiment. This is just west of the current overpass where Highway 10 crosses above the tracks. Apparently back in "the day" the tracks went over the highway. Who knew?

Yes, that is my white work car, and no, I didn't realize it would such an eyesore in the photo when I shot it. Live and learn.
