Winter Blue Hour - a photo on Flickriver

Winter Blue Hour

            CN 3353, a recently rebuilt 'DC to AC' converted AC44C6M, leads daily evening manifest M356 through Glen Valley, British Columbia.

It has been seven weeks since the winter solstice passed, and the days are finally long enough to shoot at least one or two trains on my way home from work.  I know this shot is backlit, and likely too dark for most people's taste, but it feels good to be able to put my camera to some regular use again.
