Down here in NJ again this week, and after I got out of the office yesterday, I headed down to Bound Brook station for a little shooting. I figured it would be a nice and easy evening of shooting and enjoying the passing trains. I really didn’t feel like driving […]

Finally feeling better so I’m back to work, and starting to get back into the swing of things. I was actually back at work yesterday, but had to skip the sunny skies for playing catch-up for my time out sick. But this morning I had a couple meetings get rescheduled […]
I was out sick again today, and there wasn’t much on TV, so no movie reviews tonight. But since I’m feeling better tonight, I decided to scan through some of my “reject” folders of slides. I, unlike some other photographers, rarely throw away slides – I keep everything (unless it’s […]
Today I’m home sick (since Friday – yech), but I’m actually awake for the most part today. So while flipping through the channels, I came across a movie that sounded like it had something to do with railroading – Disaster on the Coastliner (IMDB info here). Curious, I left it […]
Starting out a new month with the waters around the Thames receding from our recent bout with lots and lots of water – and a little luck as things panned out. Actually, I wasn’t exactly expecting to get out & shoot after hearing Amtrak had shut down all service between […]

Water, water everywhere, and not a drop to…well, I guess you could drink this if you really had to (apologies to Samuel Taylor Coleridge). If you’re anywhere along the eastern US coast, you’ve been subjected to days and days of rain. Well, all that rain, along with melting snow up […]
I sure don’t. The railroads run 24/7 in any weather – so why should they only be documented on sunny days? And with today’s deluge, I figured it was a good opportunity to show a little railroading in the crappy, dreary weather, while getting out for a bit.
I’ve been doing a bit of spring cleaning in the office here at home, and in the process I came across a stack of slides I needed to file back into the binders. Well, while doing that, I came across one slide that caught my eye – it was taken […]
Busy evening last night and busy day today, so this is a little catch up from yesterday’s shooting. I was able to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 under some different weather conditions. And throw into the mix Amtrak train 171 at the start of things. Oh, yeah, and like […]
