Norfolk Southern local A02 is working a cut of tank cars at the AOC Resins Tennessee Plant in Piperton off the Memphis West mainline.
BNSF 282 and 2296 have a nice snowmelt reflection while spending their time in Willmar between local assignments.
The Max Local pokes along at 10 mph as they pass thru the Lake Audubon area of the Missouri River between Coleharbor and Garrison. This job will get a 2nd crew on board that will work thru the night. The job is enroute to deliver cars to the CP at Max, and then pulling a grain empty for Garrison with the 1st pull, and then the regular manifest with the 2nd pull overnight. DMVW has 125 car max limit on this line, so the crew will have to pull twice tonight from the CP at Max. That will take most of the night, and crew will make it as far as Coleharbor for the day crew tomorrow. This is about the only scheduled train that we found while out here, alot of the other trains are extras.
A sunny Saturday morning and decision made to head over to the delights of the WCML.....intention - to hopefully capture a lovely 86 on passenger duty, something I hadn't had the pleasure of for quite some time.
Things didn't start well, a check on RTT before leaving home revealed a late departure from Euston. Oh well I thought, gives me time to check out the location and catch some freight workings....but had Les failed??..... Arrival at the my intended A51 location, it revealed the delights of RTT were still accessible on my phone....great! A quick check and the intended tour was 110 late......oh dear!
After spending an hour alongside the A51 (and a few freights, Pendos and Voyagers later) . I decided to head to pastures new to capture the 86. There was a freight due soon, the intended victim, a Dollands Moor to Ditton Foundry freight. Before I left, RTT showed I had enough time.... When I rucked up.....no internet...totally blind...oh the joy....we've all been there so many times....
Drove to the intended location, parked up, and decided naahh, so I scrubbed that location and decided to head back a little way along the road I had just driven..... although I first had to run back to the car, which I think raised suspicion with a local, who proceeded to hang around and watch my movements for a while (sir I hope I provided entertainment??). Anyway, weekly exercise over, car found, started up, and driven...but arrival at this (final) location coincided with the passing of the aforementioned freight!!...damn!! Not to worry the main reason for heading over to rural South Staffs was the 86.
But.....no internet, much hanging around.....wondering.....where is it? Is it still running? Many test shots on Pendos and Voyagers later....it appeared, unannounced, Duff hauled. After spending a good 45 minutes poised and ready for action, and shot testing on Pendo after Pendo, one final test shot proved to be my downfall. I was reviewing the shot and checking that my limbs still moved as the Duff appeared......I was not ready, not poised at the critical moment. Oh well!!!...note to self, get fitter and learn to stay poised for longer.....stop chimping at test shots!

CSXT local L011 (formerly) B733 with lone GP40-2 6218 (EMD blt. Jan. 1978 as WM 4319 and delivered in Chessie System paint) is shoving back north (railroad east) on Main 2 of Amtrak's New Haven Line main at MP 204.
After coming down from Walpole via the Framingham Secondary they had a little wait before the Amtrak mainline dispatcher gave them a short window to come out, run south thru the cross over from Main 1 to 2 in Mansfield interlocking and then make their reverse move. With 100 or so passenger trains on the typical weekday those windows can be tight, and they are hustling to make the move so they can get in the clear at 'the chocolate' off of Main 2 just a short distance to the east of here were they will go about working a few customers located off the mile long lead.

NYS&W Southern Division local WS-3 pulls empties out of Belden Brick in Riverdale, NJ on the Pompton Industrial. The crew today brought along four "general purpose" EMD variants after needing the horsepower for a large train from Little Ferry to Saddle Brook. The last time four engines were consisted on this stretch of former Erie trackage was likely decades ago.
Entering the final months of its current boiler ticket, 5305LA's Ex-LMS Stanier Black 5 45305 makes light work along the Quorn straight of the 1515 Local Parcels from Loughborough.

29119 leads a local service from Dublin Pearse to Maynooth.
Seen here approaching Leixlip Louisa Bridge.
NS's Allentown based local HA13 sits in the Bethlehem Layoff Track next to an empty river yard. To my knowledge, HA13 was a weekday local that ran pull-pull from Allentown Yard to the Buckeye Pipeline Co. in Emmaus, back east to Bethlehem and then back to Allentown Yard. My best assumption on this day was that the train outlawed here the day before and was left to spend the weekend on the layoff until the next crew would arrive Monday morning.
A rewind to June 2011 sees Stagecoach in South Wales Plaxton Pointer-bodied Dennis Dart 34215 waiting time at the turning area in a drizzly Pontsticill. The village lies at the foot of the Brecon Beacons and is known for its reservoir and links to the Brecon Mountain Railway, though lies within the Unitary Authority of Merthyr Tydfil.
New to Selkent, after repatriation to the provinces she saw service in the North West (Cumbria) fleet until transfer to South Wales in 2011, where she operated for both Merthyr Tydfil and then Porth depots.
She was withdrawn in 2014 and then saw service with Arthurs Coaches of Coatbridge in North Lanarkshire for another couple of years.
The service was two hourly and Stagecoach gave it up a few years later, with a local Community Transport Scheme then stepping in. However, in recent years, Peter's Minibuses has provided three or four journeys a day on behalf of Merthyr Tydfil CBC only for Stagecoach to re-introduce an hourly service as an extension of Service 25 (Merthyr Tydfil-Trefechan).

CSXT L13626 is westbound on the Hanover Subdivision passing a local foundry in Hanover PA on April 26, 2023. Lead unit #2756 is an EMD GP38-2 originally manufactured for the Penn Central Transportation Co in March 1973 and was numbered 8148 which it carried over to Conrail three years later. June 1, 1999 it went to CSX in the split merger between Norfolk Southern and CSX. It was then numbered 2756 and received the then current YN2 scheme as seen here. To this date, 2756 is the only GP38-2 that remains in this paint scheme making it a rare bird on the CSXT roster.
Immediately behind the power is a cut of DODX flatcars containing Bradley armored tanks destined for points west via Hagerstown yard.
