B&O GP30 6938 leads Chessie train RS-97 out of the Brooks Ave. Yard in Gates, NY on May 2, 1980. I had purchased a 2nd camera in the Spring of 1980 and used it to shoot B&W film. I think I shot more B&W images of this train than I did color, based on the few color slides that I have of it.

Just another frame I like of this great catch on a great day with some great people
Train G104-28, an empty unit grain train off Pan Am at Barbers (Worcester) destined for the BNSF in Cicero, IL is seen approaching Union Station (that served the Boston and Maine and New Haven as well as owner Boston and Albany) and still is busy with Amtrak and CTrail trains) at CP98 on CSXT's Berkshire Sub.
Historically these unit trains to and from Ardent Mills in Ayer were interchanged in Rotterdam Junction and ran the length of Pan Am's ex Boston and Maine route and they were never seen on the old B&A. But due to Pan Am's ongoing crew shortage woes they have more frequently been taking this routing which may very well become permanent if CSXT's acquisition of Pan Am is approved by the STB this year. So while this was my first time shooting a unit grain train on the B&A it probably won't be my last!

RS97 is about to pass under the old DL&W main at DL&W Jct. in Pavilion, NY on the first day of Spring in 1981. The bridge was a favorite perch of mine to get RS97 and SR94 from. Of course the bridge is long gone now, but back in 1981 it was still an active line and the route used by D&H salt trains to get to Griegsville to access the GNWR. The head end is heavy with salt loads that were picked up at P&L Jct. in Caledonia. Power on RS97 is a pair of GP30's, a GP40-2, and a GP9.
B-17 Flying Fortress G-BEDF Sally B is the last remaining airworthy B-17 in Europe. She did not see any war service.
B&P 3101 leads the Southbound turn to Silver Springs at DL&W Jct in Pavilion, NY on December 19, 2019. It's hard to tell, but there used to be a bridge over the tracks about where the 4th unit is. The DL&W crossed this ex BR&P line on that bridge. There was also once an interchange here too, all has vanished long ago. I used to like to photograph the Southbound RS-97 Chessie train from the bridge.
May I introduce you to Olli B. Bommel... Een Heer van Stand (a gentleman of standing), as he calls himself.
I had been searching for him for a while.
While scrolling through the internet, I came across a site that sells different brands of bears, including Steiff bears... Suddenly, the image of Olli B. Bommel appeared on my screen. There was only one copy, and now it's mine! Lucky me!!!
Olli B. Bommel has a good friend named Tom Poes. I hope to find him somewhere someday.
You can read about who and what Olli B. Bommel is at the link below. He is a creation of Maarten Toonder. Three thousand of these special edition Steiff bears were made especially for the Netherlands.
