2nd - Picture of deer crossing under the train parked in this same location

Those are awesome. Does that train ever move? Did you have a lane to shoot over the train in the first picture?

In the early summer of 2006 the RR parked that stupid thing right across my property. Unfortunately, it split my property (predominately mature forest) from a thick creek bottom. I thought that it would effectively act as a barrier for deer because the train was at least a mile long and extended way past my property on both ends. However, I liked hunting that spot and could shoot over the train with my bow (the distance in the picture is about 25yds to the deer). First sit, right after light I see a deer approach the train, disappear beneath it and come out the other side. Several weeks later, it happened again. So I put a camera underneath the train where they had been crossing and got pictures of three or four different deer walking under the train.
