So this morning I had a bit of time in my schedule to head out and take advantage of the nice weather and go for a walk. I decided on trying to get up to a spot a bit north and hopefully catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 along the […]

Last Friday I had taken the day off, and had to head down to the shoreline to take care of something in the morning. As things worked out I ran into Providence & Worcester train NR-2 on the way down, but somewhat unfortunatley, it was in the pouring rain. Well, […]
Going back in time a bit. Last Thursday my schedule prevented me from getting out at my usual time to shoot Providence & Worcester train NR-2 on their way south. But that was a good thing in a way.
Didn’t have much time for a walk today, because I had to head over to New London to ship out the Sigma 2x teleconverter I’m returning (not happy with the performance of it with my shooting style – see this post for more info). But I did end up catching […]
Well, the weather geeks got it wrong again today – at least partially. When I left the house this morning, they said it would be nice for most of the day, then cloud up later in the day. That would work for me – I’ll take my walk and grab […]

Well, this morning was a pretty stark contrast to yesterday’s blue skies and warm temperatures – a rather chilly start to the day, on and off showers, and a misty drizzle hanging in the air. But that didn’t keep me from my walk! With the weather the way it was, […]
For today’s walk, I decided to stay a bit further south, and hit Red Top at about MP4 on the Providence & Worcester’s Norwich Branch. As it turns out, this was a pretty good decision – I not only was able to catch P&W train NR-2 heading south with quite […]
Well, Friday the 13th turned out to be a fairly lucky day, in the realm of trains around these parts, that is. I was able to catch New England Central train #610 in Franklin, CT on my way into work, a Providence & Worcester hyrail in Ledyard on an inspection […]
Busy, busy morning around here, so I couldn’t get out to catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2 at my usual spot & time this AM. But I did have a little time after lunch where I could duck out and hope for something. What I got was a nice two-fer […]
