Southbound Amtrak City of New Orleans Train #59         
I wanted to go test out a couple night shots with my new camera, and decided #59 would be a good target since I'd never shot this particular train. If nothing else, it has a famous name. Here it sits at 10:55 after arriving 26 minutes late. I am now shooting with a Canon SX110 IS.
