Surprising what you find when you poke around in city side streets. A quiet alley with a quaint little shop, bamboo plants outside, and colorful paper umbrellas visible through the window. A tree across the way, offers some shade to those that want to stop a while and escape the hustle and bustle.

I debated whether to continue my drive to Mowich as I was running behind. I only had about a hour from the time I parked to around sunset. 2.8 mile to the summit? In a hour? Well, I hustled out of my car and beat feet...not bad, thankful for the flat sections. Even had a little time to spare on the final approach to stop and work this scene a bit. The clouds were flowing nicely.

Union Depot Train Days 2022 started off right with the ever-popular night photo shoot.

 

This year, 7 locomotives (a train days record) were in attendance. The stars of the show of course were the SD45s sent down from Duluth, including GN 400, the Hustle Muscle.

 

The last time I saw Hustle Muscle she was awaiting a new SD45-2 engine to replace the old one that suffered a broken crankshaft. It was around this time that GNRHS elected to have 400 leave MTM's Jackson Street Roundhouse and return to Duluth, where it had been for much of its time pre-Millenium but post-retirement from BN.

 

The scene is complete with an illuminated "1st" sign, a popular background feature at many night shoots at SPUD. It's fitting, as GN 400 was the first locomotive to be displayed at Union Depot during the first "Train Days" in 2014 (not to mention the 1st production SD45).

 

To date, Hustle Muscle has made three appearances at Union Depot Train Days, tied-most with Milwaukee Road 32A, which was also in attendance this year.

 

A personal thank you to everyone involved to make Union Depot Train Days 2022 happen. Haven't missed a Train Days yet, hoping the streak will continue. Also thanks to Steve Glischinski & Chris Guss for organizing another phenomenal night photo shoot.

Three SD70MACs up front lead train 181S with 70 hoppers of coal and three more MACs DPUed on the rear destined for the export coal terminal at the head of Resurrection Bay in Seward. Loaded at the Usibelli Mine near Healy, the coal will be loaded into a ship destined for Chile (I think as that's where we were sending most of the coal at this time though some still did go to South Korea and there were ships to China as well). In fact this was the peak year for export coal with trains growing to 75 cars and up to four a week operating and 18 colliers calling on the port that year. The last ship sailed from the harbor in 2016 and no coal trains have wound their way sout along the shore of Turnagain Arm or battled the loops to Grandview summit and short steep climb to Divide since. The coal loading facility in Seward built in 1984 by South Korean interests and owned by the state since 2003, has been idle ever since.

 

So let's take a look back to those halcyon days when coal was king and I was Superintendent of the Alaska Railroad designing plans to grow the business to 4 million tons and run up to eight trains a week....alas that never came to be but for a short while we had two 70 car trains of aluminum hoppers making the 700 mile round trip cycle to and from the mine.

 

On a cold gray windswept day the coal dust and snow mingle into a gray patina punctuated only by the signature ARR blue and gold. The train is seen here winding around landmark Gorilla Rock at about MP 91.5.

CSX C315 hustles up the grade on the north end of the CSX Bellwood Sub to pick up the A-Line at AY and head south to Cross, SC. After several times catching trains here, it was nice to time a coal train and at the right time of day as well.

Every true hustler knows that you cannot hustle forever. You will go to jail eventually.

On a hazy, hot and humid August morning, Norfolk Southern's Jersey Central heritage unit leads past the old depot in Duncannon, PA. This was a total surprise, and I had to HUSTLE to get out here and get into position. I am glad I did, because I love the scene of the town folded into the mountain with the train rolling by.

While certainly long into the UP era this MRODV shot in March of 2000 was still all Rio Grande. Seen here a few miles east of Thompson bathed in the golden light of the Utah Desert at sunset.

Given an HDR twist this shot captures the clamour of an arrival at Ringas Junction.

 

Not only is there pressure on would-be passengers to find seats (including clambering over folks intent on staying in the doorway to keep cool), but there's also a lot of pressure on the concession owners who pay to be on the station, and who necessarily come alive when the train passes through in the hope of drumming up business.

 

Just another day in the life of........

Three EMD’s in the next-to-last Richmond Fredericksburg & Potomac paint scheme roll a southbound manifest through Doswell, Virginia.

Amtrak Brunswick to Boston Downeaster train 696 is at MP BW 26 as measured from North Station in Boston via the MBTA Western Route. The train is lead by NPCU 90406 dressed in its Phase III 40th anniversary paint. This locomotive is a former F40PHR built by EMD in July 1988 using components from retired SDP40s. In 2011 it was converted into a non powered control cab and in 2023 it was renumbered to give the 406 slot to a new Charger.

 

To the left is the famed Ayer Mill Clock Tower, with the world’s largest mill clock. Its four big glass faces are only 6 inches smaller than Big Ben in London. It is the treasured icon and landmark of the community, a hard luck post industrial city that was once an industrial powerhouse trying to reclaim a bit of its past glory

 

Lawrence was formed in 1843 from land purchased from Methuen and Andover by successful business men from Lowell to establish a new textile manufacturing industry on the banks of the Merrimack River. Periods of boom followed periods of financial difficulty for the huge mills that attracted immigrant workers from all over Europe. By the 1890’s a solution to stability appeared to be consolidation and in 1899 under the direction of Frederick Ayer, eight textile companies merged under a new trust: The American Woolen Company.

 

In 1906, president of the American Woolen Company, William Wood, Frederick Ayer’s son-in-law, completed construction of a huge new mill intended to produce all the yarn for the company and named it the Wood Worsted Mill. Just one wing of this new mill was half a mile long. The mill spun the fleece of 600,000 sheep in just five hours, but even with this capacity Wood soon realized that it could never produce all the yarn requirements of the company, so he began construction of the Ayer mill, named after his father-in-law, in 1909.

 

The Ayer Mill, built to spin and dye yarn, was opened on October 3, 1910. Its grand, illuminated clock tower immediately became the architectural focal point of the Merrimack Valley. Decades later the competition of synthetic materials, the migration of the mill companies to southern states, and the end of war-time demand for woolen blankets and clothing doomed northern mills, and The American Woolen Company closed in 1955. Without regular maintenance, the Ayer mill clock soon stopped working. As thousands of residents lost jobs the city fell into major decline and the grand old clock, its disrepair visible to all at 260 feet above street level, became a symbol of the Valley’s economic troubles.

 

After 36 years, the community rallied in 1991 to restore the clock. Over $1 million was raised and artisans were called in to bring it back to life. Clemente Abascal, a realtor and community activist working on the effort, saw the restoration as a harbinger of hope. “Once the economy starts turning around, the city of Lawrence will come back stronger than ever. That clock symbolizes people at work”, he said. The original bell that had called thousands of people to and from work throughout the city, had been lost for years and was replaced by a beautiful replica.

 

The train is passing another relic of Lawrence's past, the rusting unused canopies standing behind Lawrence's 1931 brick union station that still stands out of site to the left of the frame. While called a Union Station, that was a misnomer as by that time Lawrence was served by only one railroad, the Boston and Maine, which had opened this route to the New Hampshire state line by 1840.

 

The first station in Lawrence was built in 1848 when the original tracks from Ballardvale to North Andover were abandoned and the route was relocated to the modern routing through Lawrence south of the Merrimack River. In the mid to later 1800s other railroads built routes radiating north and east from Lawrence, all of which would come into the fold of the B&M over time.

 

By 1965 the B&M had ended all passenger service to Portland cutting back to Dover, NH and two years later that also was cut and Lawrence was left with a single daily round trip between Haverhill and Boston. By 1976 even that was gone and for three years the city had no service at all. But trains returned three years later with the energy crisis and have remained ever since, though in 2005 this old platform was closed when the Senator Patricia McGovern Transportation Center opened with a new Lawrence train station a quarter mile to the east, replacing this 1931 facility.

 

In the year 2025 Lawrence sees 26 MBTA commuter trains stop each weekday and in 2001 intercity trains returned when Amtrak Downeaster service commenced between Boston and Portland. Though the 10 daily trains just pass through Lawrence without stopping they do call at Haverhill not far to the north (east) of here.
