Was able to get out a couple more times this week to catch P&W train NR-2 – yesterday while it was raining, and today when the sun was shining. Luckily yesterday, I got a heads-up from Nick Palazini who was chasing the train out of Plainfield with David Telesha so […]
Providence & Worcester
I figured today would be a good one to take advantage of the blue skies and sunshine before the weather hit the shitter for the rest of the week. So I did my usual, and headed up to Erickson Park in Ledyard in hopes of catching Providence & Worcester train […]
Saturday we spent a nice day down at my family’s place in Old Lyme – the kids played at the beach, and we had a nice relaxing day of kids, burgers, hot dogs & beer (and juice for the kids). When we got home, as the girls were getting ready […]
Despite a hazy, foggy start, this morning ended up being pretty nice weather-wise. Along with the sunny, and somewhat hazy skies, there wasn’t a breath of wind. And when there’s no wind, there’s sure to be calm, glass-like water. Today wasn’t an exception – both the Thames River and Mill […]
Yesterday I spent the day in bed at home with a nasty, but thankfully short-lived, cold. When I got up, I wasn’t quite feeling up to par this morning, so I opted to head in a little late and get a little more sleep. As things ended up working out, […]
Finally, some summer-like weather is upon us, including bright blue sunny skies. This morning I was able to take advantage of the beautiful weather conditions on two different occasions – one on my way into work, and the other a bit later on. And The Hartford I’m talking about isn’t […]
Glorious sunshine. Had another day of blue skies and that bright orb in the sky that has been in such short supply lately. That coupled with a hole in my schedule this morning gave me the opportunity to head out and catch a little action. As things unfolded, I also […]
Today we were graced with something we haven’t seen in quite a while – blue skies and sunshine! So I had to take advantage of the great weather and get out. Of course, things didn’t exactly go as planned – but like always, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Just […]
Gloomy, gloomy skies. Seems like that past few weeks have seen nothing but clouds, rain & storms. Well, this morning was no different – overcast, but no rain. But with a small hole in my schedule I decided to head out to see what I could see on a walk. […]
Yep, Providence & Worcester train NRWO, who usually runs from Plainfield to Worcester and back weeknight evenings, made their way out the Willimantic Branch this evening to work the interchange with the New England Central. And I just happened to catch them as they were heading out of town.
