NYC in JBO

Today's 37Q provided another chance to see the NS 1066 New York Central engine leading a train through Jonesborough. Mid-morning runs are tricksy when it comes to lighting because the sun is out of the southeast and my favorite shooting spots are need southwest light. But You shoot what's in front of the camera, amiright?

So here's two from the near the Southern Railway depot being rebuilt near 2nd street in downtown Jonesborough.

After shooting there I figured I could outrun it to Limestone as long as traffic wasn't bad. Well I was only mostly right, I thought I was making good time, traffic was no problem, but I made it to the Limestone and got parked with a full 10 seconds to spare. Here's the results of my point-n-shoot-with-whatever-settings-are-on-the-camera from near the old depot in Limestone.
