The platform

Nice shot! There's nothing light a big huge yellow line to lead your eye into the picture.

Was this taken in Vancouver? It looks vaguely like the San Francisco BART system.

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. Douglas Adams

Your sig almost the perfect caption for this, were there a train passing. But it would not be worth the risk to take that shot from this angle.

I wear Koss Sportapro headphones because they deliver great sound while allowing a good deal of ambient noise in. I wear then downtown because it cuts down on the bums asking for spare change, smokes or plane tickets to Mexico

. In the photo I posted, that station is the end of the line and rarely do trains come in from behind. They usually come from where that train is parked in the image. When that one entered the station from behind I was coasting at a fairly low speed and they're pretty much silent against the ambient noise. If it had clipped my elbow it would have hurt like hell but not likely have killed me.

Thanks...Yep Vancouver Waterfront station. I've seen kids standing real close to the edge seeing how close they can come without being clipped.

What if infection had set in?? It could have caused an embolism to travel to your heart! (Not even sure if that's possible ... just doing my 'Dr House' Impression)

Maxi would have been pissed!

Don't kid yourself! That cat will go to anyone if they feed her right crap!

Room mate has been trying to get Maxi to stay in the dark side of this apartment luring her with Tuna and stuffed toys but Maxi comes back to my studio every time

Of course if I was snuffed out by a train all bets are off
