On my way - you get the food and drinks in. This looks great to me the light shining out just lighting the tracks and platform and a perfect sky too good choice of timing :)

Yep, that sure is a great entry my friend...gonna try to be less enthusiastic from now on....if only i knew how to spell that word, LOL.

Well the enthusiasm is catching...this shot was one of 42 that I took within 30 minutes last night on our way home from the ferry...so don't you dare ease up..I was only kidding in that previous comment. Thanks for all your comments, everyone

Is that a Train Depot?

I'd be glad to attend. Just like when the Democrats came knocking one day asking for my party affiliation, I told them: "The one with the open bar!"

I've got a half gallon of Rot-Gut Vodka and some Fruit Punch Mixer I can bring. Shall I bring the bowl? Do you have the ice?

It was an old Train Depot...now a museum. The railway was moved a few feet to the right and no longer carries passenger trains...strictly freight and they thunder through this old historic town.....something I hope to capture at night also. I heard a horn last night and waited but must have been on the other side of the river. Canadian National runs along this south side ( this is an old CN Depot)...it's the Government affiliated line....and Canadian Pacific ( privateer) runs along the north side. CP was always considered the better of the two in passenger service. We came across Canada on the CP train "The Canadian" back in '59..took three days....a far cry from the train trips we took regularly in England. I ended up working for Canadian Pacific, but in the Airline division..my first full-time job. ..in an office...made my parents proud....me?..I would rather have been designing automobiles in Detroit. Ice can be arranged... Andreas said he would bring a truck load as he more than enough at home....... ;-)

Been a long time since I've been across the bridge, or tunnel for that matter. I suedused to work for a fellow from Windsor who had to return to Canada every so often (immigrations stuff you know?).

Such being the case (yep no doubt you've got the ice) how about tossing a case of Moose Head in the tub and I'll be right over.

Oh! What Province is that? and Nice Pic, I really love old train depots.

What a great night shot!! I just love that sky!!! There's such an inviting atmosphere here!!

Yes...full of intrigue and crispness :]

It's Fort Langley, British Columbia

Oooooh oooh...did someone want ICE??? Yep, me got plenty!!! We need lots and lots of vodka and beer though. Man, you got me all enthusiastic again, LOL. I know you were only kidding ;o)...or were you...hmmm...oooops, here i go again...go off topic all the time it seems...bla bla bla..to get back in the game i shall once again say that that right there is one helluva entry my friend!!! Me gonna collect some ice now...see ya....

Doug:.....it's just a few yards off the main street that runs through Ft. Langley... just before you cross the RR tracks to pass the Fort Pub and head over the bridge to the ferry. Look for Wendel's Books and cafe on the corner and it's right there. I would love to see this area captured through your eyes.

well, i just ADORE this scene, Peter!!!! I know everyone's monitor is different, but i thought the lighting on the one in your gallery was perfect!!! Certainly the change you've made here doesn't detract from the beauty a bit though! helluva a shot!!! did someone say PARTY???? count me in!!!!! Let's get up a volleyball net too and have some fun!!!!! :)
