En el año 2007 los ferroviarios de FEVE me recomendaron visitar este lugar... pero hice un intento de encontrarlo y me perdí por los caminos junto a la estación de Vado-Cervera. Durante años no me acordé, pero en 2011 revisando la línea con el GoogleMaps encontré el camino para llegar hasta aquí. Es un lugar que he visitado poco porque para llegar hasta la altura necesaria para hacer la foto hay que caminar un buen rato y eso te dificulta hacer un seguimiento posterior al tren.

 

A la izquierda podéis ver el Parque Natural de Fuentes Carriondas con el pico del Curavacas (2524m) y en el centro la Peña Carazo (2013m). A la derecha asoma el extremo oeste de la Sierra de Peñalabra, con la propia Peña Labra (2018m) (que es esa montaña que tiene forma de altiplano) y el Pico Tresmares (2175m). El Pico Tresmares tiene este nombre porque el agua que fluye por sus laderas va a parar a tres mares distintos. Llegan al Cantábrico a través del rio Nansa, al Atlántico a través del Pisuerga que es afluente del Duero y al Mediterráneo a través del rio Hijar que es un afluente del Ebro.

 

En total la panorámica tiene 34Km de desarrollo de punta a punta, captada mediante tres fotos disparadas con un trípode, motivo por el cual el tren no está en el centro de la toma. La foto es de Julio de 2011.

Central Vermont Railway MLW-ALCO RS11 diesel electric Locomotive # 3611 is seen in a yard area in Vermont, August 1979. As we were driving toward Bellows Falls and Steamtown we drove over a highway overpass which crossed over some tracks below and I noticed this beauty spotted there on its own. Since I have always been a fan of ALCO diesel locomotives, I just had to stop to capture this image on film. Do believe that this paint scheme presents itself well on this locomotive. A real surprise was situated on the right, because there still was an active turntable in use at this facility.

Blue Ridge Southern Railroad EMD SD40-2 locomotive # 4205 & EMD SD39-2 locomotive # 3932 is seen in the yard locomotive service & maintenance area at Canton, North Carolina, 9-16-2022. SD40-2 # 4205 is the only locomotive in the eleven engine fleet that has the railroad's herald centered on its lower hood nose. Watco of Pittsburg Kansas owns this short line railroad. The SD39-2 has the reporting marks "WAMX" which is for the Wisconsin & Southern Railroad, another Watco property. In order to take this photo I had to hold my camera above my head to reach over a chain link fence to capture the scene, but that darn weed bush was in the scene unfortunately.

Five Penn Central ex New Haven Railroad GE U25B diesel electric locomotives, with # 2678 up front, are seen on the ready tracks in the Cedar Hill Yard at New Haven, Connecticut, 1971. The locomotives have been re-numbered into the 2600 class PC numbering system on their locomotive roster. During the mid to late 1950's and into the 1960's the catenary was removed from the yard, along with numerous tracks, buildings and facilities. The yard started to become a shadow of itself as time went by and the trash was building up in just about all areas of the yard. You can see steam escaping from numerous pipe connections throughout the yard area. Bob Hughes had access to many areas of the yard to take his photo images.

Norfolk Southern EMD SD40-2 diesel locomotive # 3264, along with other locomotives, is seen while leading a manifest freight train at a location between Harriman and Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 1987.

New Haven Railroad DERS-2c class ALCO RS-3 locomotives # 520 & # 545 are seen on a siding near the waterfront at Fall River, Massachusetts, 8-17-1957. You can see the engineer in the cab of RS-3 # 520. These locomotives were purchased during 1950-1952 and they had steam generators for passenger service. The RS-3 actually was a real workhorse for the New Haven Railroad in my opinion, and they were seen just about anywhere of the railroad.

 

The name of the photographer is unknown and it came from a photo that was on the Internet. This photo has been cropped and modified from the original to improve its appearance.

Dit jaar bestonden de spoorwegen in Nederland 150 jaar. In Utrecht was een grote treinenshow georganiseerd, waar divers (historisch) materieel uit binnen- en buitenland tentoon waren gesteld. Ook was er een tentoonstelling in de jaarbeurshallen en reed de Arend diverse rondjes over het terrein. In dit album diverse opnames van deze manifestatie in Utrecht.

 

This year the railways in the Netherlands existed for 150 years. A large train show was organized in Utrecht, where various (historical) trains from the Netherlands and abroad were exhibited. There was also an exhibition in the Jaarbeurs halls and the Arend drove several rides on the grounds. In this album you will find the scans from these colour slides of this Event in Utrecht.

Blue Ridge Southern Railroad yard engine service & maintainence area with EMD SD40-2 locomotive # 4205 & GP39-2 locomotive # 3932 seen at Canton, North Carolina, 9-16-2022. Many of the freight cars seen in this view will serve the Evergreen Paper Packaging Facility that is seen in the background. Notice the track absorbtive matt situated between the rails. This was another photo that was taken with the camera raised above my head to get above the fence. Locomotive # 4205 is the only engine with the railroad's herald located on its nose, which in my opinion looks the best overall.

New Haven Railroad DEY-3 class ALCO S-1 switcher 0933 is seen in a yard area, ca late 1950's. In the background are some Osgood-Bradley (American Flyer) coaches with passengers on-board. This location is unknown and perhaps someone will know where the photo was taken.

Tijdens ons bezoek aan het Erfgoedmuseum Barger-Compascuum hoorde ik van het Industrieel Smalspoor Museum in Erica. dit lag hier niet ver van verwijderd. Nadat we het erfgoedmuseum bezichtigd hadden, zijn we daar nog even langsgereden. We kwamen er een klein uurtje voor sluitingstijd aan, maar nog voldoende tijd om even rond te kijken.

 

During our visit to the Barger-Compascuum Heritage Museum, I heard about the Industrial Narrow Gauge Railway Museum in Erica. It wasn't far from here. After visiting the heritage museum, we stopped by. We arrived about an hour before closing time, but still had plenty of time to take a look around.

 

Bei unserem Besuch im Barger-Compascuum Heritage Museum hörte ich vom Industrial Narrow Gauge Railway Museum in Erica. Es war nicht weit von hier. Nach dem Besuch des Heimatmuseums schauten wir dort vorbei. Wir kamen etwa eine Stunde vor Schließung an, hatten aber noch genügend Zeit, uns umzusehen.

In 2022 werd na twee jaar (Corona) weer Terug naar Toen georganiseerd door de Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM).

Elk jaar organiseert de MBS een Najaarsstyoomdag. 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.

Denver Rio Grande & Western Rio Grande Zephyr in a high plain mounting area is operating on a main line curve as it heads westward in Colorado, Summer 1980. The scenery keeps on changing as the train prodeeds to its destination in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Union Pacific, up close and kind of personal.

Aquel día me fui a la aventura como quien dice, ya que salí de casa en plan pasotismo y sin esperar nada... Pero nada mas bajarme del tren, se presento esta preciosidad estacionada al sol, esperando a algo.

La BB 63579 presenta un estado mas que aceptable, teniendo en cuenta su edad y sus horas de trabajo. Esperemos que así siga!
