Description
Norfolk Southern Sonic Bonnets at Ramsey, Indiana
With a winter wonderland scene and warm evening light we find Norfolk Southern 4004 and 1800, the Black and Yellow "Sonic Bonnets" leading empty autorack train 124 as they make their way west at Ramsey, Indiana on the NS Southern-East District on January 28th, 2021.
I passed this spot when I was on my way to setup for this same train as it passed through the cut at Tunnel Hill Road, about 4 miles to the east of this crossing. I loved the look of the snow on the trees and was hoping I'd be able to make it the four miles back to this spot before the train got there, after catching it at the cut.
Well, needless to say I made it, but probably not more than 10 seconds to spare. Enough time to grab the D800 with my 10-20mm lens, step into position and fire off a burst of about 5 shots before the lead unit was through the crossing. This is my favorite!
Tech Info: Nikon D800, RAW, Nikon 10-20mm DX lens @15mm f/4, 1/640, ISO 320.
