Yep, Providence & Worcester train NRWO, who usually runs from Plainfield to Worcester and back weeknight evenings, made their way out the Willimantic Branch this evening to work the interchange with the New England Central. And I just happened to catch them as they were heading out of town.

This past Saturday June 13th was the 6th Annual Night Photo Shoot at the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum in Willimantic. We had to top last year’s shoot, which included the use of the turntable in a number of shots. This year the volunteers came through again, and kicked things up […]
Yep, more night stuff, and like Saturday night, it was a last-minute decision to do. At the CERM meeting on Sunday night, one of the members mentioned that there was an NECR train tied down in the Willimantic yard. Well, I was kicking myself for not bringing my camera & […]
No, I’m not talking about Nickelodeon’s nighttime show lineup, but rather out shooting with fellow rail photographer Nick Palazini. Nick & I are working on a joint project for a magazine, and needed to go over some images on Sunday night. So after we were done, we figured we’d brave […]
Had to run out and do a couple errands in Willimantic tonight, so I threw the camera bag and Lumedyne bag in the car on the way out of the house. You never know what you’ll run into in Willimantic.

This past Saturday night, Bob LaMay and I braved the wind & rain, and headed up to Worcester for a little night photo session. Up there, we met up with a few other photographers, and proceeded to take a few shots before the rain really started to come down. And […]
Well, I had to run into Willimantic last night to run a last minute errand. This was about 8pm, so usually the two New England Central jobs are in town working – one turn out of Palmer working the P&W interchange, and the south end switcher out of South Windham […]
Last night I got word that something special was going to be on Providence & Worcester train NR-4 coming into Willimantic. So three photographers got together for an impromptu night shoot. But of course, as with everything that has to do with the railroad, things changed last minute. But we […]
Well, I got lucky last week. I decided to poke around eBay for some photo gear I’ve been looking for, and came across one auction that was pretty much everything I needed. When all was said and done, I ended up winning the auction. And today FedEx delivered the box […]
