For the past couple weeks, there have been talk and sightings of a coach destined for the Valley Railroad in Essex, CT. Well, it finally completed the last leg of its journey from New Hampshire to Essex this morning on Providence & Worcester train NR-2. And as things worked out, […]
So the weather’s been crappy lately, but as usual that never stopped me from getting out and shooting. And this time of year, the colors are just starting to peak down in southeastern Connecticut, so even cloudy gloomy days are somewhat colorful. And boy were Tuesday and Wednesday pretty cloudy […]

Catching up continues. Here’s a bit from September 21st. Simple one this time – caught Providence & Worcester train NR-2 at Mill Cove and just south of the USS Nautilus in Groton. Yep, pretty run of the mill stuff – only “exciting” thing is NR2 was throwing a little smoke…
