    Lots of fantastic submissions this week, very hard to choose the winners. There are ties for 3rd and 2nd place because it was just so hard to choose.
    In 3rd place is Buynot with a fantastic picture of an American steam locomotive. Also in 3rd place is mfeets with an awesome mountain shot with a Union Pacific freight train.
