A tardy Pan Am Southern intermodal train 22K with four horses blows through the Route 68 crossing and past the mile marker at 355 in Royalston MA on a cold chilly morning. The train still has 20+ miles to go before reaching its final destination in Ayer. Luckily, the predicted clouds have yet to materialize.

The Santa Fe mainline cuts across the extreme Southeastern tip of Iowa, and the action on this line has always been hot and heavy.
Train QNYLA9-26 of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway was hotfooting it on a warm June evening in 1997, approaching the US 218 overpass near New Boston with trio of Superfleet doing the work.
Rare that a coal drag is the hottest train on the railroad, but that is the case with these Sugar Camp shuttle trains on the Evansville Western; with each of the two seeming to make a turn between the mine and the transloader once every 24 hours. Here the second one is curving off the branch to the mine to turn south on the mainline towards Mt. Vernon, Indiana.

After swapping crews and dropping off a cut of stacks at Shreveport, a colorful 181 is back on the move north and rolling at a good clip through Oil City. Much more of a tiny town than a city, Oil City is the home of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Museum and there's a number of drilling derrick and rig exhibits in the middle of town alongside the railroad.

A better look at the dioramas we had at the show last weekend. :) Still one more to shoot, just waiting on stickers. Coming from Charleston, SC, so I am not holding my breath on them getting here any time soon.

Early on a September evening, Southern Pacific's LABRF rolls along the dry Williamson River near Calimus, Oregon. The Los Angeles to BRooklyn (SE Portland) Forwarder was the hottest train on SP's Oregon Division.
Pacing along side, Q042 glides past the grainery on the outskirts of Columbus Grove with about a mile of intermodal traffic from the southern states behind a matching pair of CSX ES44DCs.

CPKC’s new daily northbound intermodal, 181, seems to be seeing mild success, with the train I shot on 5/20 being all of 20 cars long with two KCSM GEVOs on the point

BNSF M-EVESUM, more famously known as the Sumas Turn, heads north for the namesake border town through Stanwood, WA. The lead GP60M with the trash containers behind them makes for a nice pretend throwback to when these engines would lead the hotshot intermodals across the deserts of the southwest & Midwest on the Santa Fe when they were new. 6-22-23
