I guess it’s been the theme of the week – taking the easy way out and heading down to Bound Brook, NJ to shoot in the off hours. Actually, on Thursday heading to Bound Brook was actually an afterthought – a result of horrid traffic on the highway. I was […]

After I finished up at work on Wednesday, which was a little later than usual, I decided to head to Bound Brook station again, as I did earlier in the day. The main reason was that it was raining, and the station there affords some shelter from the weather, while […]
This week, I’m once again down in the Garden State for work. Tuesday, however, I had a conference I needed to attend down in our Collegeville, PA office, so I drove down from Peapack Monday afternoon. The route I picked just happened to take me past a few railroads – […]
Down here in NJ again this week, and after I got out of the office yesterday, I headed down to Bound Brook station for a little shooting. I figured it would be a nice and easy evening of shooting and enjoying the passing trains. I really didn’t feel like driving […]

While down here in the Sunshine State, I’ve been talking with a few of the local FEC fans about the goings-on along the railroad. One of them, who lives up by Ft. Pierce, invited me up to check out the area, as well as an FEC 0-8-0 undergoing restoration. As […]
