A 1991 view of the Gaithersburg Train Station back when this was B&O territory. In 1991, History Park consisted of BC&G #14 (a 2-8-0 steam engine) two cabooses and a troop sleeper. Photo by WW Jenkins.
As seen from a coach on the incoming valley train (train 11 led by CN 7470), CSRX 1751 is about to head to Conway with a Freight Extra. Between the GP9 at the head end and the caboose at the rear are 4 vintage freight cars.
NHCR 360 (GE 44-tonner), CSRX 23 (Budd RDC-1) and CSRX 573 (EMD GP7) all sit in the North Conway Yard. At right is a ball signal.

After the meet of the Q trains I hear "CN 1501 at Shawano Junction to the RTC, over". Time to boogie north! Seen here heading north on the Shawano Sub.
The train is about to exit the train shed in 1975. The depot building was occupied by a bank. At the time of this photo this was the only place on the Boston and Maine Railroad where a passenger train used a wooden train shed at a rural depot. This station was opened in 1846. It was damaged by fire in 1919 and repaired in 1921.

West Cambridge, MA - A 2 car train of Budd Rail Diesel cars is leaving the Boston and Maine Fitchburg Division Main Line to run up the Lexington Branch to Bedford. The photo is from the early 1970's. At this time the Lexington Branch had only one round trip passenger train on week days only.

An Amtrak train is behind the RDC. The Budd cars are now out of service, while the DART Kinkisharyo cars have since had a middle low-floor section added to them. August 5, 1998. © 2016 Peter Ehrlich
Found these two RDC's on an abandoned siding on the old PRSL down in Cape May County. They are probably owned by the Cape May Seashore Line. The CMSL has not run trains on the line for a few years due to tracks in need of repair.

Somewhat early in the morning on day two of railfans weekend at Conway Scenic Railroad. CN 7470 is about to pass CSRX 23
BC30 &21 are the rear two cars of a four car set that departed North Vancouver. At Lilooet they were detached from the train whilst the first pair continued on to Prince George.
CN 5550 is a 4-6-2 built by Montreal Locomotive Works for the Canadian Government Railways in 1920. The CGR was absorbed into CN soon thereafter, where it was renumbered to 5550 and became part of Class K-2-b. The engine was removed from hangar 5 at Exporail last fall and spent the winter under a tarp. The tarp has been removed, allowing this view. At right is a CP RDC-4
CN's track inspection car rebuilt from a Budd RDC heads south on the Flatrock sub, crossing the CSX diamond and passing the old tower.
CSRX 23, Conway Scenic's sole Budd RDC, is boarding passengers for a passenger extra to Conway on the second afternoon of the Railfans Weekend.
Ipswich, MA - Probably from the seventies. Back then Ipswich was the end of the line for the B&M commuter service on the Eastern Route Main Line. Service has since been restored to Newburyport.
One of my few attempts at available light night photography. The station is Montreal West on the Canadian Pacific Railway. I did not record the date but it is probably in the 70's.
Lowell Junction is in Andover, MA, not Lowell - In old BM terminology (pre- Freight Mainline), this is where Portland to Mechanicville freights left the Portland Division Mainline to pick up the New Hampshire Division Mainline in Lowell for a brief trip north before heading west on the Fitchburg Division. Date not recorded
NHCR 360 (GE 44-tonner), CSRX 23 (Budd RDC-1) and CSRX 573 (EMD GP7) all sit in the North Conway Yard.
A trio of RDC's (VIA 6251, VIA 6208 & VIA 6105) are at the rear end of VIA 37 as it crosses the Lachine canal 5 minutes after leaving Central Station in Montreal.
This photo was hanging in the North Billerica train station. (There was another one too with a big steam locomotive.) It had no caption or annotation, but I think it has to be the 1950s based on the use of the Budd RDC train, and the style of the cars parked over on the left. The station, though, looks about identical to now.
Consist was VIA 903 (P42DC), 4 LRC cars, VIA 6435 (F40PH-2), 2 stainless steel cars and 2 Budd RDC's (VIA 6130 & VIA 6202). I was told by local railfans this train was on its way to Ottawa.
