A Union Pacific switching crew was shuffling auto racks around. The locomotives pulled a string of those freight cars from right to left, stopped for a while, and backed up. I started the exposure while the train was stationary and continued as it moved out of the scene. As the locomotive backed up over the bridge, its headlights illuminated the structure. I tried in vain to erase the power lines at upper left.
This shot looks northeast and was taken from the
Interurban Trail in Kent, Washington.
Ralph Tripod, my heavy-duty photographic assistant,
was as still as the night for this shot.
