A Stop at Jackson Railyard

I went to my aunt's for her birthday party today and since it was on the way, I decided to make a stop at the Jackson Railyard.

 There aren't a ton of trains here but it seems like they aren't moving on the weekends.  Or at least, they weren't moving today.

 The lighting was just about right since I was shooting from the right side.

 It seems like Norfolk-Southern takes pretty good care of their engines.  You don't see a ton of rust on them.

 The ES-40 is probably my favorite style of modern train.

 While it is not quite as rounded as the classic diesel engines, it still looks kind of like a face.

 And if you try to play beat the train and lose, it's a face that will mess you.

 Although the more utilitarian looking diesels are pretty cool too.

 Back to the first one.

 This one was sitting in the yard all alone.

 Like I said, it's a pretty small yard.  I couldn't stay to catch the passing Wolverine though.

I kind of liked the flag in the background, so I took another picture of this one.
