The Tefft Bridge runby is one of the highlights of the D&S Winter Photo Train day. Normally shot on the east side or straight up the track, I carefully framed up the bridge low from a deep embankment on the west side. As the whistle blew and I could hear the gentle chug of the running gear approached, I was not sure what I would get. And I was delighted to see this 'comet' like shot of the #486 exploding from the bridge like so many vintage railway posters.
