If anyone is brave enough post your entries to the Amtrak Photo our train contest post them here! I tried to upload mine but the insert image doesn't work. Mine are instead posted on train orders

1. Eastbound Sunset crosses the Rio Grande River High Bridge at the base of Mt. Cristo Ray in ELP.

2. Westbound Sunset at the same location later that afternoon in the shadow of the mountain. This one is a little foggy but you can still makeout the train.

If you change the "t" at the very end of the link to an "f", you will get a larger picture:

For example:

Jonathon - I agree with you -- the first photo, of the train with the station in the background, is better.

I decided to go with that one seeing as how Amtrak likes sunny, day time photos that include full view of the Entire Train

Thanx All for Complaments!
