Interesting day yesterday. Things started out kinda ho-hum, and I figured that I wouldn’t get a chance to head out – had a bunch of stuff at work to do, and what really iced the decision was the fact that Providence & Worcester train NR-2 was coming out of Plainfield […]

Kind of a hectic day today, but I managed to get out for a short spell this morning. Of course, things didn’t go exactly as planned – no Providence & Worcester action, but I did manage to get the New England Central across the river as they headed north through […]
So I managed to get out a few times last week – including one night jaunt shooting both the Providence & Worcester and New England Central (both sporting “foreign” power). Other stuff from the week was the P&W and NECR in daylight – including an ethanol move, along with a […]
Another sunny day today that I was able to take advantage of (tomorrow’s another story – got morning meetings). So keeping with my near avoidance of the Providence & Worcester’s Norwich Branch, I only got a couple shots of them in Fairview Yard, then headed over to Niantic to get […]

Sunday was an eventful day, photographically speaking. So I’ll be dividing it up into two parts – day and night. For the daytime, I had one chance encounter, and one planned. The chance involved the New England Central Railroad, and the planned was up at my alma mater – the […]
Snowbirds – the term used for people who live here in the north and “migrate” south to Florida in the winters. As some of you may know, a pair of Florida East Coast Railway GP40s have been leased to the New England Central Railroad, and are making their way up […]
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 […]
