CSX Engine No. 9004 powering up

On a visit to the Mobile, Alabama-USA, area, this image was taken in the CSX freight yards...some of the Port of Alabama *stuff* may be seen in the background. The port's law enforcement guys are not keen on photos in the general dock area.


Camera: Fuji S5 Pro

I like the sense of energy that is evoked by the smoke over engine 9004 and with the dust being kicked up to the front of the engine and the industrial feel of the setting with the tower and the shed in the background (something about the industrial setting along railroad trackage that I find adds to the image of trains). A black background works well with this picture.
