OK, it’s Friday night, so I guess I can catch up. I managed to get out a few times this past week to shoot a bit. The weather was decent down here in southeastern Connecticut, so I took advantage of that. This one is from this past Wednesday where I […]

I managed to make a little time this morning to get out and try to photograph a little bit along the Thames River. But it was later than usual, so I wasn’t sure what, if anything I’d catch. I was encouraged by the fact that on my way into work […]
Now that we’re safely nestled into the new year I normally pick out some of my favorite shots from the previous year (2008 & 2007 for example) as a kind of retrospective look at what I shot over the past 365.25 days. This year I decided to narrow it down […]
We got back home from Florida early last week, but because of things around the house, I didn’t get out to shoot at all. This morning, though, I finally got a chance to head out, and bagged Providence & Worcester train NR-2 at a couple spots. I also got some […]
We’re back home in Connecticut now, but I managed to squeeze in one more FEC train on the way home. Actually, I have to credit my wife for spotting the train and suggesting we get a couple shots of it. How could I argue with her logic?

Later on New Year’s Day I figured I could head out and catch the northbound FEC Extra job (train #240) out of Miami as they rolled through the area. So after putting the kids to bed, I checked out ATCS Monitor to check on 240’s progress north. After a little […]
We have a ritual when we’re down here at my parent’s place in Florida – we make a morning trip to Einstein Bagels in Boca Raton, FL. This fine New Year’s Eve morning, we left the kids with my parents and went out in search of trains after the bagel […]
Been down here in Florida for a few days now, but haven’t had a chance to head trackside. Tonight was the first time I was able to get out – and with the help of ATCS Monitor, I was able to catch a FEC freight in Boca Raton, FL. Only […]
Another sunny, but cold morning today. Not quite as windy as it had been, but still pretty cold. And there’s still plenty of the white stuff on the ground to make things look all nice and pretty. So I had to get out this morning and see if I could […]
