HOTRAIL PRODUCTIONS
Step onto the captivating world of Hotrail Productions, where the magic of lights, camera, and trains combines to create an unforgettable experience. I travel all over the country photographing railroad history in the making. My footage dates back to 1995. Whether it's a thrilling action sequence or a heartwarming romantic scene, the railway has long been a favorite setting for filmmakers and TV producers.

BNSF GEVO On Coke Express 8/11/18
At Walkerton, Indiana, an eastbound CSX empty Coke Express train led by a BNSF GEVO and a CSX C40-8W, clatters across the diamonds with the Elkhart & Western IMC line. Just a few feet to my right was where the former NYC Kankakee Belt crossed. There was a triangle of diamonds around the tower at one time. The NYC was abandoned by Conrail in 1983.
