Thanks Stephen, Me too. Anytime I know about these running I'll be chasing all day if it's sunny so I can get multiple shots of them

Thanks Darrell, I have a friend to thank for telling me about the 137. I almost decided not to pursue this train due to very bad cloud build up, but glad I chased it now. I only got burned by the clouds blocking the sun on 1 shot at Jacksons Gap, but that's fine with me, because I wound up with 7 nice shots, my favorites of the bunch being Alexander City & Sylacauga where the light was best, all the others the sun was a little too high for truck light

Thanks Alex, This isn't my favorite shot of the 7 I got though. The sun is actually too high for my liking on this shot, no truck light. I decided to take this shot in case I wasn't able to get another shot due to the cloud build up. My favorite shots of this train I got were at Alexander City & Sylacauga where the better light angles were
