I wasn’t planning on doing any chasing this weekend – we had a busy one planned. Saturday we spent the day in New York at my cousin’s graduation party, and Sunday was to be a day of working around the house – most notably rototilling the garden. Of course, plans usually change […]

Still playing catch-up, so here’s some stuff from last week. Another busy week, so my ability to get out was limited. Making the best of it, I headed up to the USS Nautilus Overlook Park in Groton a couple times, getting some shots of trains and submarines in the same […]
Phew, once again I’m running a bit behind…story of my life. But I did manage to get out a bit last week and grab a nice variety of moves – some pretty run of the mill, and a couple that were quite unique. Too bad the unique ones were a […]
Part two of my catchup posts involves some new angles I scouted out on Friday – one was in the morning on the New England Central, and two were in the afternoon on Amtrak’s Shore Line – one in Niantic, and one in Old Lyme.
Got a bit behind lately with the posts – but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t out shooting at all. Actually, it was less than usual, but here’s part one of two wrapping up the last week or so of stuff along the Thames River. This one covers April 30th to […]

This time instead of heading from Willimantic to Plainfield over the Providence & Worcester’s Willimantic Branch, […]
So I managed to get out a few times last week – including one night jaunt shooting both the Providence & Worcester and New England Central (both sporting “foreign” power). Other stuff from the week was the P&W and NECR in daylight – including an ethanol move, along with a […]
Last night Jill & I had a rare night out – the kids were at a sleepover at their cousin’s house, and we took advantage of that and headed into Arch Street Tavern in Hartford to check out the reunion show of a friend’s band – The Screwdrivers. So here’s […]
