Norfolk Southern #6184 SD40-2 & #864 RPU6 Slug trail on NS 34A. Just one of the morning rush trains on the NS Reading Line. This location is 6th Avenue in Emmaus PA

ACL EMD E-7A locomotive 533 is seen in the platform area with train 38, (aka: Jax Mail) while it is being loaded with mail, express & baggage prior to its early evening departure from the downtown station, situated between 2nd and 3rd Street on First Avenue South in Saint Petersburg, Florida, April, 1960. The station tracks were situated on First Avenue South and were on a continuous up-grade from the South Mole to 16th Street, and the locomotive really had to work hard when departing the station. It appears that two employees standing by the front of the locomotive are involved with one of the interconnection hoses on the pilot. In the background you can see a mail truck delivering bags of mail that has been placed on a baggage float. The trains consist has five headend cars along with one rider coach that travels on a slow schedule with numerous stops enroute to Jacksonville. The car next to the mail truck is a RPO. If you notice the train has been split at Second Street to allow vehicles to pass until departure time. The station's actual platform was constructed of red brick while the track area was covered with asphalt to serve as platform area and to make it possible for vehicles to load or unload. Behind the employees standing by the front of the locomotive there was a siding with a platform for the old Harrison Hardware building, but this track was often used by express cars. This station was taken out of service in 1963 with the building being torn down after that along with most of the downtown area tracks being removed.

Gedurende de zomervakantie reed de SGB een uitgebreidere dienstregeling, waarbij de twee omC-tjes ook in actie kwamen. Dit zijn toch wel een van de mooiste (replica) treinen die in Nederland rondrijden, dus onze focus lag vooral op deze twee treinstellen. Mijn zoon had ook nog zijn Lego model die hij had ontworpen en gebouwd meegenomen, die met het origineel vastgelegd werden.

 

During the summer holidays, the SGB operated an extended timetable, including the two OMC trains. These are among the most beautiful (replica) trains operating in the Netherlands, so our focus was primarily on these two trains. My son also brought along his Lego model, which he had designed and built, and which was photographed alongside the original.

 

Während der Sommerferien verkehrte die SGB mit einem erweiterten Fahrplan, unter anderem mit den beiden OMC-Zügen. Diese zählen zu den schönsten (Nachbauten) Zügen der Niederlande, daher lag unser Augenmerk vor allem auf diesen beiden Zügen. Mein Sohn hatte auch sein Lego-Modell dabei, das er selbst entworfen und gebaut hatte und das wir zusammen mit dem Original fotografiert haben.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr is climbing a Rocky Mountain grade where a double ended siding enters the main line in Colorado, Summer 1980. As another viewer pointed out, that is an interesting short height block signal situated on the double ended siding.

NL Op de dag van Kerstavond was het 's-middags al rustig op de Havenspoorlijn. Ter hoogte van het RSC Waalhaven was Captrain 203 103 onderweg met een korte keteltrein vanuit de havens richting Barendrecht en verder. De UN-nummers 33/1268 verraden dat het gaat om een aardolieproduct.

 

(Mocht iemand het exacte product in deze trein weten evenals herkomst en eindbestemming, ik hoor het graag.)

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.

'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.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr is seen working its way up-grade in the foot hills of Denver before entering the front range of the Rocky Mountains where it will continue the up-grade trip in Colorado, Summer 1980. The block signal indicated a clear track with the green signal shown.

New Haven Railroad with two ALCO RS-11's leading a westbound Shore Line passenger train at Rocky Neck State Park with people seen at the shore in Connecticut, ca 1957. This passenger train consist has quit a mix of cars with the newer Pullman Standard stainless steel lightweight cars, Osgood Bradley-PS aka: American Flyer cars, along with some heavyweight cars. The shore is really active on this day with all of the people situated either on the beach or in the water. Remember going to this same location to watch trains back in the late 1940's until the mid 1950's.

Samen met mijn zoon zijn we twee dagen naar de MBS Najaarsstoomdagen geweest. Dit jaar reed, naast de Wismar railbus, de Magda en Kikker, de ELNA 152 in het zwart weer mee. Ook de gastloc SHM 6513 kwam in actie. De twee locjes MBS 12 Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje' en MBS 10 'Nijverdal' mochten een ritje naar Zoutindustrie maken. Helaas raakte daarbij Rij-ijzer defect en moest teruggesleept worden door de ELNA. Op zaterdagavond werd er een night shooting georganiseerd, wat in mijn ogen wel een hoogtepunt was van het weekend. Zeker later op de avond, waren wij nog de enigen op het depot en konden we nog vele mooie plaatjes schieten.

 

My son and I went to the MBS Autumn Steam Days for two days. This year, in addition to the Wismar railbus, the Magda, and the Kikker, the ELNA 152, all black, was also participating. Guest locomotive SHM 6513 was also in action. The two locomotives, MBS 12 Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje', and MBS 10 'Nijverdal', were also making a trip to Zoutindustrie. Unfortunately, Rij-ijzer broke down and had to be towed back by the ELNA. On Saturday evening, a night shoot was organized, which, in my opinion, was a highlight of the weekend. Especially later in the evening, we were the only ones at the depot, and we were able to take many beautiful pictures.

 

Mein Sohn und ich besuchten zwei Tage lang die MBS Herbstdampftage. Dieses Jahr war neben dem Wismarer Schienenbus, der Magda und der Kikker auch die komplett schwarze ELNA 152 dabei. Die Gastlokomotive SHM 6513 war ebenfalls im Einsatz. Die beiden Lokomotiven MBS 12 Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje' und MBS 10 'Nijverdal' unternahmen eine Fahrt nach Zoutindustrie. Leider hatte Rij-ijzer eine Panne und musste von der ELNA zurückgeschleppt werden. Am Samstagabend fand ein Nachtfotoshooting statt, das meiner Meinung nach ein Höhepunkt des Wochenendes war. Vor allem später am Abend waren wir die Einzigen im Depot und konnten viele schöne Fotos machen.

Penn Central former New Haven Railroad DERS-1b class ALCO RS-1 locomotive 9942 is seen in an unknown yard area, November 1969. This ALCO RS-1 is one of the few former NH RS-1 locomotives that made it into the Penn Central system, but they did not last very long in further service.

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 EMD GP9 # 7540, PC Ex NHR RS-11 # 7673, Ex NHR GP9 # 1217 & Ex NHR GP9 # 1211 lead a westbound TOFC freight train nearing tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1970. Four locomotives operating as a set in electric territory was not as common as the three locomotive lash-ups. In the right background there are set of Pullman Standard lightweight stainless steel MUT's. Bob Hughes was able to get this photo from his tower location.

Dit jaar ben ik met mijn oudste zoon voor de tweede keer naar de Havendagen in Rotterdam geweest; meestal waren we bij de Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij voor 'Terug naar Toen' stoomtreinen kijken, òf naar de vliegshow Sanicole in België. Een fantastische ervaring deze havendagen. Veel demonstraties van het loodswezen, de Koninklijke Reddingsmaatschappij en het Corps Mariniers. We keken onze ogen uit. De Havendagen staan voor de komende jaren zeker weer op de planning.

 

This year I went with my eldest son to the Port Days in Rotterdam for the second time; Usually we were at the Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij to watch steam trains 'Back to Then', or at the Sanicole air show in Belgium. A fantastic experience these port days. Many demonstrations by the pilotage service, the Royal Rescue Society and the Marine Corps. We were amazed. The Port Days are certainly planned again for the coming years.

Elk jaar wordt met Hemelvaart de Nationale Stoomtreindag georganiseerd. Meestal waren we dan bij de SGB of de RTM te vinden. Vorig jaar zijn we voor het eerst eens naar de VSM gegaan. Dat was ons goed bevallen. Samen met mijn oudste zoon ook dit jaar op pad naar Loenen, waar we bijna een privé showtje goederenwagens rangeren hadden. En de rest van de dag hebben we langs de lijn of in Beekbergen en Loenen doorgebracht, waarbij de nadruk lag op de 2530 met de goederentrein.

 

Every year on Ascension Day, National Steam Train Day is held. We were usually at the SGB or the RTM. Last year, we went to the VSM for the first time. We really enjoyed it. This year, my eldest son and I also went to Loenen, where we practically had a private show shunting freight cars. We spent the rest of the day along the line or in Beekbergen and Loenen, focusing on the 2530 freight train.

 

Jedes Jahr an Christi Himmelfahrt findet der Nationale Dampfloktag statt. Wir waren meist bei der SGB oder der RTM. Letztes Jahr waren wir zum ersten Mal bei der VSM. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Dieses Jahr waren mein ältester Sohn und ich auch in Loenen, wo wir quasi eine Privatvorführung beim Rangieren von Güterwagen hatten. Den restlichen Tag verbrachten wir an der Strecke oder in Beekbergen und Loenen und konzentrierten uns auf den Güterzug 2530.

Elk jaar organiseert de MBS een Najaarsstoomdag. Dit jaar kwam ook de 162 in actie met een net opgeknapte boxcar. Ook werden er weer enkele slagen gereden met de Wismar railbus. Het was helaas erg regenachtig, wat echter wel weer bijdroeg aan de sfeer.

 

Every year the MBS organizes an Autumn Stoom Day. This year, the 162 came into action with a recently refurbished boxcar also. There were also some rides with the Wismar railbus. Unfortunately it was raining a lot, although it did add to the atmosphere.

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 EMD F9A diesel electric locomotive # 5771 is at the station platform preparing to lead the morning departing eight car Rio Grande Zephyr from Denver, Colorado to Salt Lake City, Utah, Summer 1980. The passengers will be loading is a short time and the train was fully booked with reservations.

Penn Central former Pennsylvania Railroad EMD E8 locomotive # 4262 along with a former New Haven Railroad EMD FL9 locomotive lead a Shore Line passenger train with PRR cars included across a bridge along the route in Connecticut, 1970. The FL-9 was numbered in the 5000 series by PC at this time. This was a rather unusual combination of locomotives, but with PC if it ran it was used evidently. You may observe the engineer through his front cab window. Bob Hughes captured this image on film.

New Haven Railroad ALCO PA-1 locomotive # 0762 & another, lead a westbound passenger train that is stopped along side a platform at the Route 128 station in Massachusetts, fall 1964. The two PA-1 locomotives are wearing what many people call the Alpert paint scheme. The engineer is seen with his head and upper body leaning out of his cab window while looking toward the rear of the train. Further back on the platform there appears to be employees standing, such as conductors and trainmen, etc. The condition of the paint on the locomotive does not get too much better than this, although if one wanted to complain, the the locomotive could be a little cleaner. LOL

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.

Denver & Rio Grande Western eastbound Rio Grande Zephyr has passed an eastbound freight train led by EMD GP40-2 locomotive # 3102, along with four additional locomotives, shortly after departing Grand Junction, Colorado, Summer 1980. The railroad was operating numerous freight trains including manifest freight trains and unit coal trains, however; I could not photograph them all, because some times they were being operated on the opposite side of the train from my location. There appears to be a major highway located in this area of the railroad.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound eight car Rio Grande Zephyr is passing by one of the many coal branch lines, with a unit coal train approaching the main line connection in Utah, Summer 1980. The unit coal train appears to be powered by three EMD GP freight locomotives, and in the distance you can see the yellow caboose on that train.

In de zomervakantie van 2023 moesten mijn vrouw en ik wegens familie omstandigheden halsoverkop naar Aberdeen, Schotland. Tijdens een van de laatste dagen daar, bleek de Caledonian Railway een speciaal evenement te hebben; de Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Diverse door diesellocomotieven getrokken treinen reden tussen Brechin en Bridge of Dun. Op diverse plekken langs de lijn heb ik gefotografeerd en natuurlijk ook zelf weer een ritje gemaakt. Toch nog een geslaagde dag geweest.

 

During the summer holidays of 2023, my wife and I had to rush to Aberdeen, Scotland, due to family circumstances. During one of the last days there, the Caledonian Railway turned out to be having a special event; the Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Several diesel locomotive-hauled trains ran between Brechin and Bridge of Dun. I took photographs at various places along the line and of course also went for a ride myself. Still a successful day.

 

Während der Sommerferien 2023 mussten meine Frau und ich aus familiären Gründen eilig nach Aberdeen, Schottland, reisen. An einem der letzten Tage dort hatte die Caledonian Railway ein besonderes Ereignis; die Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Zwischen Brechin und Bridge of Dun verkehrten mehrere von Diesellokomotiven gezogene Züge. Ich habe an verschiedenen Stellen entlang der Strecke Fotos gemacht und bin natürlich auch selbst mitgefahren. Dennoch ein erfolgreicher Tag.
