Finally got my photos from the speeder ride I took back on the 14th processed. It was a beautiful day weather wise, and that coupled with the great scenery along the New England Central Railroad’s Palmer Subdivision between Willimantic and New London, Connecticut and a bunch of really truly nice […]

Finally, up to yesterday! I didn’t get a chance to head out at all today, so this is the newest update. With the weather moving in, there was a bit of sunshine in southeastern Connecticut. So I tried to take advantage of it and headed out at my usual time […]
Backlog nearly cleared now…here goes another. This past Monday sported glorious blue skies, calm winds and warm temps, so I decided to head for the tidal pool near milepost 7 on the Providence & Worcester’s Norwich Branch in Ledyard, CT. When I got there, the color of the leaves was […]
Finally getting a chance to dig out a bit here. This past Saturday was Railroads Illustrated‘s Day In North America date. What that means for those who don’t know is the magazine picks a day and tells everyone to go out & take pictures of railroading in North America. They […]
Damn, talk about busy. Hectic at work, and booked up at home. Which leaves precious little time to take pictures! Well, that’s not entirely true – Wednesday night my wife & I got a night away from the kids and saw our friend Steve Rodgers and his brother Jon play […]

Still playing catchup here. This past Tuesday I took the wife & kids to watch the Mystic Aquarium release a harbor seal back into the wild. This is the seal that was found beached in Bridgeport with a gunshot wound to his eye. Once he was brought back to health, […]
Saturday brought two things – work around the house (as in installing our new flagpole), and then heading south to catch the Providence & Worcester passenger extra on the Northeast Corridor between Providence, RI and Groton, CT – a section of track rarely used by P&W trains. The extra was […]
OK, the second installment for tonight. Yeah, I missed a day, but I haven’t had a chance to process the images from the 11th yet. Watch for those either later tonight, or tomorrow evening. And they’re nothing special – just NR-2 at Mill Cove, Fairview Yard and the Thames River […]
OK, here goes. First up is from last Wednesday the 10th. I had to go on a quick business trip to Kalamazoo, Michigan for the day. But the meeting we were going to be attending wasn’t at the office out there, but rather it was at the Gilmore Car Museum! […]
