On a foggy April 26th I got a call from a friend that Providence & Worcester train NR-2 was southbound out of Plainfield with a short train. With a hole in my schedule, I figured it was worthwhile to head out and catch them at Stoddard Hill in Ledyard, CT. […]

Holy crap does time fly when you’re doing nothing but shoveling snow. Yep, we’ve been inundated with snow the past month or so here in the Northeast, and I have next to no photos to show for it! But I did manage to get out a few times to shoot. So instead […]
Last week on the first of November I managed to catch New England Central train NERWNE (or #608 going by the old symbol) at a couple spots in southeastern Connecticut – first was with their usual freight in the late morning through Uncasville, and another with some ethanol in the […]
It’s that time of year again – the 2011 calendar is ready! This year’s calendar is titled “Steel Wheels and Submarines” and features 13 of my all color photos photos taken along the Thames River in southeastern Connecticut of the NECR, P&W, Amtrak and FEC (yes, I said FEC). I’m putting it out […]

Today things calmed down a bit, and I was able to head out for a nice walk, and of course I took advantage of the sunny skies and killed some pixels along the way. The way things worked out, I was able to catch New England Central train NERWNE heading […]
Yesterday I was running a little late in getting out of the house, so I didn’t get on the road at my usual time. But like usual, I had my scanner on during the 40+ mile commute to the office. That told me a couple things – first that New […]
Took a vacation day from work today, so I’ve got a little time to catch up on some posts. For this one I’ve got some stuff from Stoddard Cove and Willimantic from Tuesday. I was able ot head out for a walk in the morning and catch Providence & Worcester […]
