Out of the Mouth of the Beast

For some reason, this photo looks very menacing to me. I think it’s the icicles hanging from the rock cut on the right that appear to be the teeth of some giant monster. In reality, it’s nothing more than Norfolk Southern train X4T struggling upgrade through one of the giant cuts on the “Rathole” near Tateville, KY, lighting up everything in it’s path.

Click it if you dare.
