100,000 ton trains are anything but common. I searched about and
found this at a number of sources:

Godfrey, the first one is truly striking. The other two are so so in a

I'd be interested in new 20 mm and 50/1 lenses, yes. But meanwhile I
can keep shooting with 21 mm and 50/1.2 lenses that I already have.
