Because It's Friday

A PRR K-4 in the 1980s.



The Pennsy built hundreds of them. Two survive. The K-4 is the Official State Locomotive of Pennsylvania.

There's always one asshole ruining the shot. Foamers used to call them "lens lice".

I am sure there is a 'name' for it, but I have it too. A love of Locomotives, Jet Planes, shooting Big Bore weapons, the sound and smell of close up thunder, even watching the Ocean beat against ba point of land.
It's "raw power" in sight but it's more than that too. Have you ever put words to it? "just wondering"

Bad connection so I got about 20 sec of it, but yeah, lens lice is right... Screwed up a nice shot!

NFO, it got better. Too bad they're not still steaming that locomotive.

w3ski, I don't know. Diesels leave me cold.
