Yep, playing catchup once again. So here’s one post with a bunch of pictures taken between June 14th and the 24th around southeastern Connecticut. I’ll spare the words, and just fire off the pictures. OK, there will be a few words…
Just a quick note of an upcoming slideshow I’m putting on. I’ll be presenting a show entitled “Steel Wheels and Submarines – Railroading along the Thames River” at the Amherst Railway Society’s October 2010 meeting. As you can infer from the title, I’ll be doing a virtual guided tour of […]
Yeah, it’s been a bit since my last update, but wanted to drop a quick note saying I’m still around, just busy like usual. Anyways, I’m involved in something new. On the TRAINS Magazine website, they have a bi-weekly contest called Trackside with TRAINS.com where a group of photographers are […]

After my conference in Collegeville, PA on Tuesday, I made my way back to Bridgewater, NJ on a route, like the way down, that brought me past some railroading sights. This time, instead of a couple stops, I figured only one would be able to take advantage of the remaining […]
