I never planned on heading out today, but when I looked outside this morning and saw sunshine and some blue sky, I had to take advantage of it. As luck would have it, I caught a train and then a little bonus on the way back to the office. Then […]

I was going through some old files on one of my PCs, and I came across some video. So I encoded it and uploaded it to YouTube. I’ll be doing this every now & then just to mix things up a bit. Trust me, it’s not the greatest stuff (there’s […]
Like usual, I’m a bit behind on postings. So I’ll take advantage of a little time over lunch to bang out the two posts waiting in the queue. First up is a quick chase of New England Central train NERWPA (the Willimantic to Palmer turn) between Eagleville, CT and Monson, […]
Yep, more night stuff, and like Saturday night, it was a last-minute decision to do. At the CERM meeting on Sunday night, one of the members mentioned that there was an NECR train tied down in the Willimantic yard. Well, I was kicking myself for not bringing my camera & […]
OK, last one to catch up on! This was after the snowstorm – which lasted from Sunday night until Monday night (don’t ask about pictures during the storm – that was a fiasco!). And the sun was shining bright on Tuesday, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to catch […]

No, I’m not talking about Nickelodeon’s nighttime show lineup, but rather out shooting with fellow rail photographer Nick Palazini. Nick & I are working on a joint project for a magazine, and needed to go over some images on Sunday night. So after we were done, we figured we’d brave […]
I had to run a couple errands tonight in Willimantic, so on my way home, I swung by the New England Central base of operations here in southeastern Connecticut – South Windham. Of course, while there, I took a few pictures of a NECR train waiting for a fresh crew […]
Had to run out and do a couple errands in Willimantic tonight, so I threw the camera bag and Lumedyne bag in the car on the way out of the house. You never know what you’ll run into in Willimantic.
I had to run an errand in Willimantic tonight, so I was hoping to catch at least the two New England Central jobs in town. On the way in, I could hear NECR 608 working in the south end of the yard, but no sign of 610, or Providence & […]
