Getting closer…now we’re up to what I shot last week! Providence & Worcester train NR-2 shifted their schedule recently. They’re now coming into Groton around 8:30AM, which actually makes it easier for me to get out and catch them a bit more often than I have been. So last week, […]

OK, now we skip forward a bit – 18 days to be exact. Yep, eighteen days! Work has me going straight out, so I haven’t been able to shoot much (and obviously write blog posts). But I’ve also had to travel to New Jersey a couple times for work, which […]
Catching up, volume 2 (of 90 or so…not really, only 4 more after this). This’ll be a quickie, though. The cruise ship, Explorer of the Seas, made another port of call in New London back on August 1st. I caught it tying up to the State Pier that morning, along […]
Yeah, you guessed it, I’m behind again. Time for a flurry of updates over the next day or so to catch up. Here’s installment #1 on that batch – from July 31st. That was a day that Nick Palazini, David Telesha and Jon (I can’t for the life of me […]

Last weekend – July 26th to be precise – was the magazine Railroads Illustrated’s Day In North America feature. This is when the magazine picks one day and tells photographers to go out and shoot on that day. They then publish one issue with basically a cross-section of railroading on […]
OK, behind again in the posts. Got a few to catch up on – so here’s the first, which is from July 24th when I caught New England Central train NERWPA in Willimantic doing some switching in the yard.
On my way out of work today, I called my wife to see what she wanted to do for dinner. Well, she was still out at her sister’s house (and pool) and was planning on having dinner with the kids there. So that left me a little time this afternoon […]
Busy week last week, and a busy weekend too, so I didn’t get a chance to post the stuff I shot last Friday (July 18th). Short story was this – I was able to head out for a bit last Friday and catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 doing something […]
