RE: Trains and traveling

in #travel7 years ago

While looking at the pictures, I am just wondering where were you when taking this picture? Sometimes it looks like you were on the roof.

My favorite of this serie is by far, the one with what seems to be a bridge. Great shot!

Thanks. :)

I'm on a large rock that is on the outer curve of the track. The train passes by only about 2-3 meters away because there's a vertical drop straight down to the tracks.

Every time I go there I hope that no-one has put any kind of fence there because obviously the train drivers can see me on the cliff as I can see them very clearly. And they might think that I'm reckless and there should be a fence. I'd like to get a photo of a long freight train at sunset, but haven't yet had the time or a good chance to do that. So no for fences until I get my shot.

It sounds dangerous but I hope you will be able to take that shot

It's not dangerous. If I die accidentally, it will probably be not by falling from a cliff on to a railroad track and been overrun by a train, it will probably happen at home by tripping onto these lovely little furry purring machines.

LOL! That is quite a collection. I see why it would be safer for you to wear a helmet indoors than outdoors.
