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.
Today was a dreary, foggy, drizzly Monday, and one that I thought I wouldn’t get a chance to head out. Well, some things this morning happened sooner than I th0ught, and some other things happened later, making the cosmic convergence possible. OK, not cosmic, but, well, you get my drift […]
As seems to be the recent norm for me, I’m running a bit behind on my postings. I did manage to get out a few times last week, and caught some Providence & Worcester and Amtrak action along the Thames River. So we’ll keep this brief and just let you […]
Yesterday I was able to make it out a couple times – once at the usual morning time, and once over the lunch hour. The morning was some typical Providence & Worcester action, and at lunchtime I happened across an eastbound Acela under some interesting skies.

OK, now that we’re squarely into 2009, I’ve got a couple sets of pictures from the last two days of 2008 to post. Both days I caught 3 trains – Providence & Worcester train NR-2 and a pair of Amtrak Acelas – trains 2155 and 2190, all in the Groton/New […]
With the new job, my time has been much more limited than it has been in the past, so I don’t get out to shoot as much. But that also has a benefit – when I get behind in my postings, I don’t have that big of a backlog! Here’s […]
