Back on the first of October I took off a little early from work – it was a Friday, and I was pretty caught up at work. The question was whether I should head home, or maybe head out for some pictures despite the crappy weather (heavy rain during the […]

Once again playing catchup with the posts – at least I’m only a couple weeks behind… In this one I’m going to roll three days into one post – they’re not consecutive days, but rather are geographically connected. And, yes, I’ll be brief on the words…
August 27th – a Friday – graced us with some beautiful weather – and a half day at work for me. That ended up translating into two trains and a submarine that crossed in front of my lens. The odd thing was the power used on one of the trains […]
On August 19th, there was a loaded unit ethanol train haded off to the Providence & Worcester Railroad by the New England Central Railroad in New London, CT. I managed to get out for a bit and shoot part of their trip north towards Worcester, MA. Along the way I […]
Down here on the south end of the New England Central Railroad, we’ve had a visitor from down south working on the Montville switcher job for the past week or so. One of the four Florida East Coast locomotives has been assigned the duties on train NERWNE recently. Last Friday […]

Continuing with the catching up theme – here’s one from July 7th. Managed to get out for a quick run up to Gales Ferry, catching Providence & Worcester train NR-2. On the second stop, I also managed to catch a quick shot of New England Central train NERWNE heading north.

On the last day of June, I took the day off to fix my car (emissions system was throwing a code, and the inspection was due). Once I fixed it, and had it tested for emissions (it passed), I decided to see if I could find any trains in the […]
Yep, playing catchup once again. So here’s one post with a bunch of pictures taken between June 14th and the 24th around southeastern Connecticut. I’ll spare the words, and just fire off the pictures. OK, there will be a few words…
