    I know there are a few railfans here. In my opinion, this guy took a little far to write the company and complain about a conductor "ruining" his shot. Personally, I think it's cool when there are people in either my train or boat shots.


    I mean, I don't consider this shot ruined.

    I thought it was pretty cool to have the conductor wave for this shot...

    I like 'em too

      Geeze... I've met/been accosted by so many busybodies/wanna-be security/legitimate paranoids while out filming/photographing, I'd LOVE to run across someone who's reaction to having a picture taken is to wave.... lighten up folks... you are photographing the WORLD, part of the charm of it, is it's NOT SCRIPTED

      You want scripted? Draw a picture.

        I guess I prefer a little humanity in my pictures....There are 1000's of pictures of trains.....but a few where you have the engineer or conductor waving...
