That's the problem with playing chicken on a train track, it's hard to veer off at the last minute!

It is a set up in the photo. There is four tracks crossing at that point(one diamond and four switches). The track is a private one, called the shellrock short line, at Nora Springs IA.

Peter will be back online in a couple of weeks and I am sure he will have more info on the image and club.

Interesting shot.  Looks like the closest engine on the left is going somewhere wrong.  Like on the ground?

Any more info about the shot you can get?  One of my Iowa friends lives close by and took me by this place but no one was out that day.

Ever experience a bottle neck at the club track.  I guess the  larger engine has right of way, or is it the louder whistle.  ;D
