Now that things are settling down after our recent loss<\/a>, I’ve got a few things to catch up on here.\u00a0 Here’s the first one – from back on February 24th.\u00a0 Caught a couple trains, along with a northbound barge headed for Dow Chemical up in Gales Ferry.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the interest of time, I’ll keep things brief.\u00a0 The short version is this – I caught Providence & Worcester train NR-2 at Mill Cove, and headed back south after a few normal shots there.\u00a0 When I caught up to them in Fairview, I noticed the train was stopped for some reason.\u00a0 So I parked, and grabbed a shot of the train sitting there.\u00a0 But both crew members were still aboard the train, and were doing something different – looking south.\u00a0 So I peeked south and found out what they were watching – a Dow Chemical barge was passing through the Thames River drawbridge.\u00a0 So I got a couple shots of NR-2 with the passing barge.\u00a0 After that, I got a shot of Amtrak train 190 crossing the Thames River with the Dow barge in the background.\u00a0 Called it a morning after that.<\/p>\n

With the words part done, here’s the photos!<\/p>\n[cpg_album:511]\n

Thanks for looking!
