The weather forecasters were calling for increasing clouds yesterday, giving way to rain. When I got up Wednesday morning, I was greeted by some pretty sunshine, and not many clouds. So I figured I’d take advantage of the nice morning light, and shoot a little before heading into the office. […]

No, I didn’t owe $20,000 on my taxes – they’ve been done for a while now (I’m one of those early guys that just gets it over with), but rather I got a chance to catch one train on the way into the office yesterday morning – Norfolk Southern train […]
Well, I can’t say the Lehigh Line here in northern New Jersey is dead. Ended up catching two trains before work this morning, and another five this evening – one of which was at two spots. Can’t complain about numbers like that…especially in comparison to what I’ve got to shoot […]
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 […]
Last week I was down in New Jersey again for work, and as has been my usual practice, the cameras and Lumedyne have come along for the ride. Instead of doing a post for each time I went out to shoot, I’m just going to roll everything up into one […]
This morning I had a 9:30am Amtrak train to catch out of Newark, so I figured I had about 45 minutes to swing by Bound Brook, NJ after sunrise and still have enough time to return the rental car and get to the platform in time. In the span of […]
On my last night in NJ, I decided to head up to Whippany, NJ to check out the Whippany Railway Museum out and photograph some of their equipment. As things worked out, not only did I stop in Whippany, but I also swung through Morristown and checked out the Morristown […]
I’m down in New Jersey for work this week taking a training class that unfortunately runs until after sunset. So I’ve had a few chances to play with the Lumedyne at night. So far I’ve been able to get out twice – once on the CSX Trenton Line in NJ and once […]
My last evening in the Garden State (Wednesday 10/7/09) was quite eventful – it started out at the NJ Transit Bound Brook station where I was able to catch NS, CSX, Conrail & NJ Transit action, then moved down to the New Hope & Ivyland at night, and concluded with […]
After work today, I headed down to Bound Brook station again to take advantage of the sunshine before the clouds fully moved in. In that time I was able to catch one Norfolk Southern, two CSX and a handful of NJ Transit runs. Oh, yeah, throw the Met-Life blimp in […]
