Penn Central ex New Haven Railroad ALCO FA-1 # 0418 along with two EMD GP9's are leading a westbound manifest freight train on an express track past tower SS71 at Devon Junction, Connecticut, 1969. The turnouts located to the left are for the Waterbury two track main line and they also make a connection to the Maybrook line at Derby Junction. The Penn Central changed the former New Haven Railroad's active numbered SS towers into named towers. The elevated highway to the right is I-95. This photo came from my collection of negative scans. This photo has been cropped and modified from the original to improve its appearance.

I took these Photographs somewhere in the area of the Restored Depot in Hamlet North Carolina during a Weekend Trip to Hamlet, North Carolina sponsored by the Atlantic Coast Line & Seaboard Air Line Historical Society. We visited the Large CSX Hump Yard, Restored Hamlet Depot and several small Short Line Railroads in the Area such as the Laurinburg & Southern, the Aberdeen, Carolina & Western and the Aberdeen & Rockfish.
Unfortunately, I didn't take adequate Notes during this trip, so I cannot identify all of the Cities and Towns, where I took many of my Photographs. We probably traveled within about a 50 Mile Circle around Hamlet, North Carolina.
This Photograph shows at least four Laurinburg & Southern Locomotives (or parts of) parked on Tracks in a Railroad Yard. There is also Gulf & Ohio Locomotive Number Number 9525 in my Photograph'
I know we passed through the outskirts of Rockingham, North Carolina, because, I took a Photograph of the former NASCAR Race Track in Rockingham as we passed with our Vans.

I believe the Depot is in Marks Creek Township in Richmond County?
'Sporen naar het Verleden'is het jaarlijkse evenement bij de SGB. Diverse eigen locomotieven vaak ook gast materieel is aanwezig om dit evenement op te luisteren. Dit jaar was de 'Blauwe Engel' van het spoorwegmuseum aanwezig. Dit dieseltreinstel is vernoemd naar Marlene Dietrich, die op het moment dat het voor het eerst in Nederland op de rails kwam, wereldberoemd was.
Diverse treinen reden tussen Goes en Hoedekenskerke. Natuurlijk veel gefotografeerd langs het spoor, maar een ritje in de Blauwe Engel en de stoomtrein kon natuurlijk ook niet achter blijven. Verder hebben de kinderen zich uitstekend vermaakt in de speeltuin. Het was een geslaagde dag uit voor de hele familie.
'Tracks to the past' is the annual event at the SGB. Various own locomotives and often also guest locomotives are present to liven up this event. This year the 'Blue Angel' of the Dutch railway museum was present. This diesel train set is named after Marlene Dietrich, who was world famous when this train got into service in the Netherlands.
Several trains ran between Goes and Hoedekenskerke. Of course I made a lot photographs along the track, but a ride in the Blue Angel and the steam train could not be left behind. Furthermore, the children had a great time in the playground. It was a nice day out for the whole family.
'Spuren in die Vergangenheit' ist die jährliche Veranstaltung der SGB. Verschiedene eigene Lokomotiven, oft auch Gast Züge, verleihen dieser Veranstaltung Glanz. In diesem Jahr war der 'Blaue Engel' des Eisenbahnmuseums anwesend. Dieses Dieselzugset ist nach Marlene Dietrich benannt, die weltberühmt war, als es in den Niederlanden zum ersten Mal auf die Schienen kam.
Mehrere Züge fuhren zwischen Goes und Hoedekenskerke. Natürlich habe ich viele Fotos entlang der Strecke gemacht, aber eine Fahrt mit dem Blauen Engel und dem Dampfzug konnte auch nicht zurückgelassen werden. Außerdem hatten die Kinder eine tolle Zeit auf dem Spielplatz. Es war ein erfolgreicher Tag für die ganze Familie.
Marshall: a British firm founded in 1848. Operating from Britannia Works, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, they produced steam traction engines, steam rollers, etc but by 1900 steam was superceded by the internal combustion models like the Colonial, but, by 1944, diesel tractors like the Field Marshall were king.

This quaint fishing village at the mouth of the Fraser River was voted #1 Metro Vancouver neighborhood out of 192 in 2020. Much of it was declared a heritage zone in 1960, which accounts the warm, old-timey vibe. But it is also a working fishing village, which makes it a seafood lover’s paradise. You can buy fresh seafood right off the dock!
But there’s more to Fisherman’s Wharf – a floating dockside walkway that threads between the fishing boats – as well as the accompanying Steveston Landing boardwalk of shops and eateries than meets the eye. The shoreline attraction is a direct link to the local fishing industry and the region’s cannery-era heyday, and it’s also a perfect place to explore!
At Fisherman’s Wharf visitors can wander down the ramp, walk the floating pathways and peer at the seafood sold from the small armada of boats moored alongside. This public fish sales market offers a cornucopia of glistening goodies, which can include salmon, rockfish, and brimming baskets of shrimp. Look out for fresh-caught sea urchins and keep in mind that the highly anticipated spot prawn season (typically mid-May to June) is a must-see.

Ct 203-103
De vrijdagmiddag 09-10-2020 werd even naar Baexem gereden voor 2 cargo treinen die van Lutdsm afkomen. Een ervan is de trein die vanuit Lutdsm naar Moerdijk rijdt. De tractie wordt verzorgd door Captrain met een V100 , deze keer was het de 203-103. Captrain bediend deze ritten 3x in de week. De Ct 203 is een diesellocomtief die ontwikkeld is in het voormalige Oost-Duitsland daar natuurlijk ook zijn geschiedenis kent. Na de samenvoeging van Oost en West Duitsland werd ook het trein materieel samengevoegd en de V100den werden omgenummerd naar 2xx. Maar al snel werd de inzet van de V100 types minder en werden de types die geen vernieuwde dieselmotor hadden gekregen afgevoerd.
Een 4 tal vernieuwde en overgebleven locs zijn in 2007 bij ITL terecht gekomen waar deze verschillende taken uitvoerde. De activiteiten van ITL worden in 2011 over genomen door Captrain. De locs zijn hier vernummerd naar 203 met volg nummers 101 t/m 104.
Een daarvan is de Ct 203-103 die hier op de foto te zien met de zogenaamde moerdijk shuttle als trein 51050. Hier passeert hij de enige aanwezige fotograaf de plaats Baexem tijdens zijn reis naar Moerdijk.

Dit jaar ben ik weer met mijn oudste zoon en mijn vader naar Terug naar Toen van de VSM geweest. En natuurlijk stonden er natuurlijk weer veel locs onder stoom. Dit jaar waren de 65 018 en 01 1075 van de SSN weer te gast. Voor de 65 018 één van haar laatste publieke optredens bij de SSN, voordat ze uit dienst gehaald zou worden. De gebruikelijke stoomtreinen tussen Beekbergen en Apeldoorn reden dit jaar alleen in de ochtend. Dus daar lag in de ochtend de focus op. In de middag werd vooral rondom Loenen doorgebracht. Het was weer een schitterend spektakel met prachtig weer.
Dieses Jahr bin ich mit meineltester Sohn un mein Vater nach Zurück nach Damals der VSM gefahren. Und natürlich waren wieder viele Loks unter Dampf. Dieses Jahr waren die 65 018 und die 01 1075 der SSN wieder zu Gast. Für die 65 018 eine Ihrer letzten Fahrten für die SSN. Die üblichen Dampf Güterzüge zwischen Beekbergen und Apeldoorn liefen dieses Jahr nur am Morgen. Das war der Fokus am Morgen. Am Nachmittag wurde hauptsächlich um Loenen herum verbracht. Es war wieder ein großartiges Spektakel mit schönem Wetter.
This year my eldest son, my father and I went the event "Terug naar Toen (Back to then) by the VSM. And of course, many locs were under steam again. The SSN 65 018 and 01 1075 were visiting locomotives again. For the 65 018 one of her last appearances for the SSN before her to be taken out of service. The usual steam goods trains between Beekbergen and Apeldoorn were only running in the morning this year. So that was the focus for the morning. In the afternoon we mainly spend our time around Loenen. Again it was a magnificent spectacle with beautiful weather.

New Haven Railroad EMD GP-9 in the # 1200 series leads an eastbound train on a platform track in fresh heavy snow between the station and tower SS38 in Stamford, Connecticut, winter 1969. Don't know how many locomotives may be part of the consist, or if an actual freight train or possibly a passenger trains is following the locomotive. From the amount of snow being thrown up in the air the locomotive must be traveling at a good rate of speed. On the left are two sets of Pullman-Standard stainless steel MUT's that are located on stub end sidings deep in the snow. Bob Hughes took this photo from his nice and warm tower location.

Penn Central ex Pennsylvania Railroad EMD E8 locomotive # 4262, along with a following FL-9 is seen leading a passenger train along the former New Haven Railroad Shore Line route, early 1970's, Bob Hughes Photo. At this time I do not have information about the location of the bridge on which the train has just crossed. There is no number on the block signal to identify the location either. Almost all passenger cars on this train now have a PC name plate applied to the letter board. You may observe the engineer and fireman within the cab.
Denver & Rio Grande Western eight car westbound Rio Grande Zephyr led by EMD F9A locomotive # 5771 and two F9B locomotives heads around a main line curve while passing a green block signal in Utah while on its way to Salt Lake City, Utah, Summer 1980. It seems that at just about every location the color of the surrounding terrain keeps on changing. The rails on this main line are well polished because numerous unit coal trains along with manifest freight trains are operated daily on this route. At this location there is an "S" curve present.
Door Corona en familieomstandigheden, waren we niet in staat om bij Plandampf in het Werratal te zijn. Maar na zoveel jaar kruipt het bloed toch waar het niet gaan kan. Daarom besloten mijn vader, mijn oudste zoon en ik in de meivakantie naar het voormalige Oost-Duitsland af te reizen om daar te genieten van smalspoor stoom.
Als eerste bezochten we de Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, waar door werkzaamheden aan de Mandaubrücke in Zittau zelf, alleen het traject vanaf Zittau Vorstadt naar Jonsdorf/Oybin werd bereden. Daarnaast was na 68 jaar Bertsdorf weer 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. Een unieke gelegenheid dus.
Due to Corona and family circumstances, we were unable to join Plandampf in the Werratal. But after so many years, the blood creeps where it can't go. That is why my father, my eldest son and I decided to travel to the former East Germany during the May holidays, to enjoy narrow-gauge steam.
First we visited the Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, where due to work on the Mandaubrücke in Zittau itself, only the route from Zittau Vorstadt to Jonsdorf/Oybin was used. In addition, after 68 years Bertsdorf was again 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. So a unique opportunity.
Aufgrund von Corona und familiären Umständen konnten wir leider nicht bei Plandampf im Werratal sein. Aber nach so vielen Jahren kriecht das Blut dahin, wo es nicht hin kann. Deshalb haben mein Vater, mein ältester Sohn und ich beschlossen, in den Maiferien in die ehemaligen DDR zu reisen, um Schmalspurdampf zu genießen.
Zuerst besuchten wir die Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, wo aufgrund von Arbeiten an der Mandaubrücke in Zittau selbst, nur die Strecke von der Zittauer Vorstadt nach Jonsdorf/Oybin befahren wurde. Außerdem war Bertsdorf nach 68 Jahren wieder Lokeinsatzstelle. Also eine einmalige Gelegenheit.
