Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr is crossing a main line bridge that's situated in a canyon, Colorado, Summer 1980. EMD F9A locomotive # 5771 is leading this eight car train along with two additional F9B locomotives.
Penn Central cab view of an on coming EMD E8 locomotive # 4249 that's leading a passenger train operating on the former New Haven Railroad's Shore Line route in Rhode Island, 1970. The E8 # 4249 most likely has its heritage from the Pennsylvania Railroad due to the tell tail lifting rings situated by the nose door. The cab crew in the E8 is providing a wave to the crew in Bob Hughes's locomotive when he was taking this photo. It sure appears that the fireman has a big smile on his face.
New Haven Railroad diesel electric locomotives (ALCO PA DER-3a class # 0765, DL-109's DER-1c class # 0712 & 0723, & FM C-Liner, DER-4 class # 792, are seen in the yard at Boston, ca 1958.

Denver & Rio Grande Western eastbound Rio Grande Zephyr is passing the yard's raised hump area tracks on the left while operating on the main line in Grand Junction, Colorado, summer 1980. The locomotive storage area is situated on the left and it appears that there are either some EMD GP40's or GP40-2's in the line up along with some SD models. It appears that there is a snow plow on a storage track waiting for its next assignment.
New Haven Railroad ALCO DL-109 locomotive 0700 along with DL-109 locomotive 0701 in the lead are seen with a passenger train on curve at an unknown location, 3-10-1957. In the background over the cab of locomotive 0700 there appears to be a Budd RDC. Since I don't know where this photo was takne, it sort of reminds me of the tracks near New London Station if the train was an eastbound.

Here are a few of Ian's photos that he captured, while we were at Tarana railway station yesterday (Sunday)
I took this Photograph 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 Laurinburg & Southern Locomotive Number 109 parked on Tracks in a Railroad Yard.
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.
You can find my Photograph of the Hamlet Depot in my Photostream at:

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.

Denver & Rio Grande Western eastbound Rio Grande Zephyr, led by EMD F9A locomotive # 5771, has just pulled out of the station at 7:20 AM in Salt Lake City, Utah, bound Denver, Colorado, Summer 1980. The weather conditions sure were not ideal for photography this morning and then it started to rain while on the trip. With Kodachrome 64, my F1.4 brightest lens, using a lower shutter speed than I liked, along with the train movement and vibration, this was about the best I could do at the time to capture this image. This is one of those photography situations that today is mostly solved by the use of digital cameras with sensors that work well under low light conditions to produce fine images. That large brick building on the left is a Purity Biscuit Company facility in Salt Lake City.
On Dave Dawson’s suggestion, I repainted the headcode box. I looks much better in black. 97302 approaches Tonfanau running 20 minutes late with the 18:05 6W55 Barmouth to Bescot return ballast train. Had it have passed on time, I would’ve had more light on the nose, but I can’t complain to have had it in sun. A 97/3 up the coast in daylight is a relative rarity these days.

Southern Railway main line Extra manifest freight train led by EMD GP38-2 locomotive # 5229 along with two more, is seen while entering the yard area at Asheville, North Carolina, August 1985. Notice the white flags mounted on the locomotives to indicate an Extra train. The train is about to pass the Yard Limit sign in the Biltmore Village area of Asheville. At this time the yard and main lines including the branch lines were all busy with numerous trains operating throughout the day. This photo was taken while on a Southern Railway railfan excursion train trip that was led by the famous Mikado steam locomotive # 4501, with the train operating from Salisbury to Ahseville and return. You can see the engineer and the other crew member in the cab.

Denver & Rio Grande Western eight car Rio Grande Zephyr led by EMD F9A locomotive # 5771 and two F9B locomotives heads westbound along the main line to Salt Lake City while in the mountains of Utah, Summer 1980. At this time the D&RGW was not part of Amtrak and the Denver Zephyr was still owned and operated by the railroad. The train was in very good condition and provided full dining and lounge car services along with very comfortable seating for the coach passengers. On this trip I made a scenic photo adventure covering all areas of the trip detailing the mountain countryside scenes along with various train scenes. Notice the high exhaust stacks on the diesel locomotives that are actually spark arrestors.
The train crosses the profile of the Castle Gate formation. This was the return of a special trip to Las Vegas through Utah, 9 November 2022.
Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr soon to make its morning departure from Denver Union Station is having baggage loaded into the combine prior to the passengers boarding the train, Summer 1980. Actually much additional baggage was loaded plus some supplies for the small towns where the train makes its stops.
Voorheen kwamen we regelmatig naar de ZLSM voor de stoomtreindagen. Helaas zijn die enkele jaren niet meer gehouden. Maar in 2023 was het gelukkig weer zover.

In the cab of the second locomotive you can see another employee riding in the engineers position.
New Haven Railroad DERS-2b class ALCO RS-2 diesel electric locomotive # 0508 wtih some old former NYW&B modified Stillwell cars in a passenger train that is seen along a platform at South Station in Boston, Massachusetts, ca 1950. The RS-2 locomotive was equipped with a steam generator situated in the short hood end. These Stillweel cars when originally built were AC powered MU cars that had a center door, but when the New Haven Railroad later modified them they removed the electrical gear, headlight and the center door to make them into steam heated suburban coaches.

In 2023 werd weer Terug naar Toen georganiseerd door de Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM). Hoogtepunt dit jaar was het weer in dienst komen van de 41 241. Dat was duidelijk te merken aan de hoeveelheden toeschouwers en fotografen langs de lijn ; ) In actie kwamen naast de 41 241, ook de 44 1593, 50 307, 52 3879, 50 3654, 65 018, 23 071, 64 415, 2459, 2530 en de SSN 01 1075. Samen met mijn oudste zoon langs de lijn en op het depot doorgebracht. Het was schitterend weer; 's ochtends mist en later veel zon, maar daardoor helaas minder stoomontwikkeling. Weer een geslaagde dag uit.
n 2023, 'Terug naar Toen' was organized again by the Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM). The highlight this year was the return to service of the 41 241. This was clearly noticeable from the numbers of spectators and photographers along the line ; ) In addition to the 41 241, the 44 1593, 50 307, 52 3879, 50 3654, 65 018, 23 071, 64 415, 2459, 2530 and the SSN 01 1075 were also in action.

Western Pacific Railroad EMD F7A diesel electric locomotive # 914A along with four other F-units is leading a manifest freight train as seen viewed going away in the area of Altamont Pass, California, March 18, 1972. In this scene you can see the high capacity boxcars of the era and they look pretty darn good to me. Eventually this railroad became the property of the Union Pacific Railroad in 1981, as did numerous other western and mid-western railroads over the years. This photo came from an Internet scan. The photo has been cropped and modified from the original to improve its appearance. The original photographer's name is unknown.
