Manifest MHNRV, with quite the varied power consist, layers under itself while descending through the Mitchell curves on Tennessee Pass' west slope.
90 minutes earlier, the train passes through Princeton, dwarfed by the size of the mountains on the other side of the Arkansas River.
Hi folks, thank you for your contributions, it is time for deliberation methinks. I have decided to go with:- 3rd place - Blazin with this super, unusual composition of a 315. The lighting & sky complement the overall scene just perfectly. 2nd Place - burnsys_bashes for this terrific reflected image.The calm quiet green surroundings disturbed by the clatter of a "Hoover" that visually almost blends into the background just works for me. 1st Place & hence this weeks winner - mfeets for this amazing Manifest capture. Just when you think you see the end of the snake you look deeper into the image and .... on we go. I have always struggled to get good "Long Train" images, this is a prime example of doing just that. Well done all, over to you mfeets to see how week 37 unfolds.
Thank you very much for 3rd place and congratulations to the other winners! Thank you two for participating this week!
Thanks for first place! Next weeks thread has been created, with the theme of "Open Country." https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/unofficial-screenshot-competition-week-37.94088/
