Easter Train!!!!
Title:  Easter Train!!!!
Description:  I had been having a dry spell catch-wise over my three day Easter weekend holiday. But Easter evening I hit paydirt first with this eastbound freight which was slowly entering Long Lake to take the siding so as to meet a westbound which soon became my second catch. Brown Road is the bridge in the distance.
