Winter’s Still Here!
by Steve Eshom
How can I be so positive in my assessment? Here’s how…
1. Its very foggy. Amtrak Cascades train 500 of the 27th departs Vancouver shrouded in heavy fog. With the recent power issues the Cascades are having it probably a good thing a Dash-8 is supplying the power today.
2. Rail cars exiting the Gorge are covered in snow. Thanks to a good dose of snow between Skamania and Bingen even trains that park at Eighth Street for a few hours, like this grain train, are still covered in the white stuff.
3. Trains have snow on the nose. It looks like this M-SPOLVJ enjoyed the brunt of the storm as it passed between Bingen and Skamania.
Winter’s still here!

Wonderful, how you captured the snow in these pictures. But I like most the picture with AMTRAK train disappearing in the fog. Really great capture!
