Description
The torrential rains shorted out my camera when I took this I had no lcd screen and the shutter wouldnt turn off. luckily it still took this picture before it quit working for a few hours.

The daze this year was full of rare locomotives including the 6936, two CN E units, one of two BRC SD40's, and the sister to the Metra in the photo F40c 611. There are only 3 F40c's known to be in existence.

I would love to hear that Metra F40c departing from a train station... probabbly would give nice sounding.
Lovely shot here.

Ah, it was nice, though its a pitty they have that "always working" engine... if I am not mistaken, that sounds like that to produce electricity to cars to make work the A/C (For example).
