Change – something that’s for the better. Despite the fact that I instinctively abhor change, I do honestly believe in that in the end it is a good thing. But I’m not here to talk about my personal philosophy – but rather how change relates to the railroading world, and specifically recording […]
Providence & Worcester
Way back on June 8th I was able to get out and shoot a bit in the morning. I intented to duck out and shoot Providence & Worcester train NR-2 along the Thames River. But as things worked out, I ended up catching two P&W jobs in the Groton/New London […]
Been a little while since I’ve posted anything from the railroad front. So to start things flowing again, I figured I’d prime the pump – so to speak – with a bunch of shots from June. Included here are a couple day’s worth of shots – one of Providence & […]
Last Friday was a pretty good day, photographically speaking. I ended up taking the day off from work for a couple reasons – first, later in the evening I was putting on a presentation about the railroads along the Thames River for the Northeast Prototype Modeler’s Meet out in Collinsville, […]
On the 17th of May I was able to get out for a few minutes to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 over lunch. It was a quick trip out, and I was only able to catch them at a couple spots. But while out, I noticed one of my […]
Going back a little bit for this post, filling in some of the gaps I didn’t manage to get out on the site. This was a quick trip I took one morning to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 heading south through Groton, CT with some special power in the […]
On Friday the 13th I actually got a bit lucky. Not only did I catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 in Ledyard and Groton, but I also caught New England Central train 608 heading south with loaded ethanol, and was able to work a couple birds into the shots – […]
Back on May 10th, the weather was pretty good – some sun mixed with clouds – so I was considering going out and shooting a bit. But with some early morning meetings, I thought I couldn’t make it. Then I got a message that Amtrak had parked a pair of […]
Check off another one from the backlog – this time from the sixth of May. Getting closer to this week! Another quick one with a couple stops, but both spots I shot at gave up some really nice reflections of the passing train!
Getting closer to being caught up – this post has shots from Cinco de Mayo, where I managed to get out for a brief amount of time and shoot Providence & Worcester train NR-2 in New London. Nothing spectacular, but I did get a shot of an Amtrak tamper sitting […]
