Into the humid haze |
| Description: |
I had the brightness setting on my Olympus digital point and shoot set of 0.07+; the result is I got the humid hzae hanging in the air along with the green signal and the glow of the setting sun! The train is the Northtown-Lincoln which had a special load this evening. |

Study In Contrasts |
| Description: |
The numbeboards of the 7934 and 2909 make for a study in contrasts. My pal Andy and I weren't too thrilled about the "box" numerboard sported by the 2909. The ones on the 7934 look more stylish. |
