OK, almost caught up. This is a quickie from last Thursday morning – another cold and blustery morning. This time, instead of the P&W, I caught the New England Central heading north through Montville.

Continuing to catch up here – this one is from last Wednesday morning, which was pretty windy & cold. I met up with Nick Palazini and David Telesha to shoot Providence & Worcester train NR-2 along the Thames River.
With the pretty much fiasco of last Thursday night on my mind, I really wanted to “redeem myself” and get some decent shots without destroying any more of my gear. So on Friday I headed out to try and catch Providence & Worcester train NR-2. Figured that was pretty safe […]
On the first day of December, I had a small hole in my daytime schedule to get out for a bit. But as sometimes happens, things don’t go as planned. As I usually plan on doing, I was going to bag Providence & Worcester train NR-2 in Ledyard, and perhaps […]

This morning had a small window where I could get out and shoot a bit – and today also had a little advantage. Nick Palazini and Nate Lafond were chasing Providence & Worcester train NR-2 south out of Plainfield, CT. They’d be able to give me a heads up on […]
