Amtrak Train #14, the northbound Coast Starlight, pulls into the station at Salem, Oregon on a rainy day in May 2005. It is led by a General Electric P42DC Genesis locomotive #113 in the Phase V color scheme.
On this particular day my wife and I were to board the southbound train, #11, to return home to Monterey. There was some question as to which train would arrive first. As fortune would have it, #14 won the race, providing me with an opportunity to photograph two arriving trains. I positioned myself by the depot door to capture the people exiting the building to meet the train. So the composition was part planning and part luck to get people in the right places at the right moment.
