thehotel Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #1 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Steam Engines - Triple Header HDR look Wacky roger Founding Member Of OOOPs Oct 26, 2009 at 02:10 AM

ALDOT Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #2 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Nice captures. It's not every day where you get to see a triple header. In this day of "radio controlled" motive power, it takes a lot of skill to operate a train with more than one steam locomotive, so my hat's off to the engineers for their skill, and to you for capturing the moment.

OntheRez Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #6 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Don't think the DRG ever ran triple headers - at least not after WWI. It would have blown the couplers out on loaded cars. Double header with a pusher more likely. Still, these are great shots. Can't see them well enough to tell what class they are: K36 and two K28? Wonderful images. Robert Oct 26, 2009 at 03:42 PM

tom cardin Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #8 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Robert, they are all K-36's. You could be right about not running triples. I know. when they run a long train, over 16, they need the third engine. When the color and the economy are good, they run three on the head end. I was lucky enough to be assistant fireman in the lead engine of a triple...... in the snow. We were in the "Mudhen". Tom Oct 26, 2009 at 04:13 PM

Wonderful images. Robert This makes a point I've thought about for some years. I think a main reason today's diesels can haul a mile-long coaler is due to roller bearings. In the old plain-journal days many of today's consists just would not happen! -- Don M Oct 26, 2009 at 04:23 PM

Karl Witt Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #12 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Very neat Roger, I never knew they ever did anything like this. Amazing pieced of steam equipment and they sure look wonderful teamed up. Looks like in #2 there was a stiff breeze and a slow climb Roger, the HDR shot in #3 is awesome, I really like the look it created and amplified the steam, great one buddy!

Rodolfo Paiz Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #21 · Steam Engines - Triple Header All four are good captures, although #2 is the less-compelling one of the bunch. I'd suggest cropping #1 and #3 (same shot, I know) to a "pano" proportion of maybe 1x2. Would strengthen the composition by reducing some of the foreground and a little bit of the sky.

dennismock Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #22 · Steam Engines - Triple Header Hi Roger . #3 frame is my fav. Thanks for sharing your train photos. Maybe you can help me, I am heading to VA in a few weeks and up to PA, where can I find steam trains? I am open to traveling to other nearby areas. Visiting my son who is a US Marine for a few days. Thanks Dennis in San Diego Oct 29, 2009 at 11:09 PM
