Got out for about 4 hours this afternoon-saw 10 trains under mostly cloudy skies.  Below are:

-a shot from near mp174 between Keno Bridge and Cave Springs Road Bridge
-what might have been an interesting meet in Dead Ox Hollow if I'd been a quarter mile further up
-a late afternoon northbound at KD Tower
-coming under Shelton Road Bridge

OK..so you lost me. Where is this Shelton road?  Looks likes a NB at Keno, from down on the fire road..or maybe Deep Hollow?

I parked at the Keno fire road and walked  back under the bridge to find a little sun because I knew there were back-2-back SBs on the way, the first of which is the one I posted.  Then caught a NB at the crossing.  Moved down to the Hollow where I just off-center for the meet, then caught another SB.  Ended up at KD Tower.  Shelton Rd Bridge is the bridge you go over coming from Dead Ox Hollow to KD Tower.  Again, I hiked up that way from KD Tower searching for some sun for a SB, then got the NB on the way back to the signals.  Also got a SB in the cut before I headed home-as you can see below, clouds and shadows don't make for great photos, but the hunt was fun.
