OK, now that things are settling down a bit, I can catch up on some of this stuff. Back on February 24th I rode with the crew of Connecticut Southern Railroad train CSO-3. It was a long day, but thankfully there was bright blue skies as we switched out the […]
Sorry it’s been a bit quiet around here lately. Lots of stuff going on around the job and homefront. I’m moving into a new position at work, so that’s been taking up more of my time, but more importantly, my father in-law passed away last week. So things really got […]
