Train 119 at Golden Spike National Historic Site<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Above is the\u00a0first image posted to this website taken with my iPhone. \u00a0We were on vacation out west, and, believe it or not, I took zero camera equipment. \u00a0I was with several non-photographers and knew I would not be able to spend any time on my own. So when we went to Golden Spike National Historic Site, I was kicking myself for at least not having my camera. \u00a0Oh well, the best camera is the one in your hands. \u00a0Such a shame I did not have my camera, these trains are really photogenic. \u00a0I know I could have spent several hours eyer shooting the trains and several of the old buildings.<\/p>\n

Train 119 is one of two trains at the site; the other being the Jupiter. \u00a0The trains steam into position near the visitor center every morning, and steam away late in the afternoon. \u00a0Check the park website for exact days.<\/p>\n

While the image is pretty good, the resolution really drops off when you start to zoom in.<\/p>\n

I’ll continue to use my iPhone for vacation snapshots, but will stick to my Nikon to capture images.<\/p>\n

Zoom in on Google Earth and you can see the trains.<\/p>\n
