"Riding the Rails"


Honorable Mention, "Riding the Rails"
category

 

One of the advantages of riding on a train is having the opportunity to take in some beautiful scenery.  This particular photo was taken on one of the excursion trains at Strasburg Railroad, near Lancaster, PA.  Pulled by steam locomotives, the trains take visitors through the lovely Pennsylvania Dutch countryside, some of which can be seen through the open window in the photo.  I wanted to capture both the scenery and the interior of the old train car in my photo, so thanks to the bright sunlight streaming through the windows, I managed to get the shot I was after.
