Pic of the Month (Real Trains) Ends 11/31

[spiffy101]

In response to the Screen of the Week threads, I decided to make the Pic of the Month for all of those pics of real trains. The rules:

1. The Picture you submit must be your own.
2. Any entries recieved after midnight (Eastern US time) will not count.
3. Please keep the threads for mainly pics.

Well, this is simple enough. I will look into a poll for the end of the month, but if not, there will be a voting thread. There is no theme this month, so enjoy So, let the November contest begin!

My entry for this month:
The VIA Ocean picks up speed as it leaves Halifax. The CN switcher idles while it awaits clearance.

@spiffy101: Excellent idea, and excellent shot!

Anyway, on to my photo. I don't know the train symbol and if anyone can help me I would be happy. O721 does the Homestead sub all the way down to the Tamimi Executive Airport. This local was caught in an industrial spur.

Lehigh Spur local and it's haul of hoppers for Florida Rock await further departure in western Miami, FL at 1800 on May 25, 2008.

I had to turn 3 times to get this type of shot, yet not too satisfied.

There was a few other shots that I was thinking of useing, but for some reason I just liked this one.

Last time I looked photos outside the Screenshots thread were limited to 800 x 600.Has that changed
Having said that, while they last they are all beautiful photos.
