Model Railroad Illiusion
Title:  Model Railroad Illiusion
Description:  The eyes can trick you, this is my third illiusion photo, I started with a GP38 - 2 at Pigs Eye that looked to be on a flat car, then a flame from Lakes Gas behind a BNSF Hi-Rail truck made it look like the truck was on fire. Now, here at Westminster, a BNSF freight meet a UP freight, the power is going towards one of the smaller tunnels. This looks like a model railroad by the looks of the UP freight's cars and the locomotive on the BNSF freight
