Here is another favorite from 2018 and the caption I wrote at the time.
Sometimes a bucket list photo opportunity drops right in your lap with absolutely zero effort.
As most of you know, I am a Rhode Islander by birth and the Providence and Worcester Railroad was my home road that I grew up with. In fact, the modern incarnation of the P&W was reborn only 4 years before I was and the P&W was always a sharp, proud, friendly little New England carrier. While now part of the G&W family, a few red and brown original units still roam the rails in the Ocean State. Their namesake city of Providence is another town that railroading has passed by.
While the Capital of Rhody is a very busy passenger stop on Amtrak's northeast corridor, it now sees no more than four freight trains on the average weekday. Most of the rail business in RI is generated by the port of Providence and the big Rhode Island Economic Development Business Park in Quonset Point / Davisville, RI.
In fact, in downtown Providence proper there is really only one old school customer located on legacy New Haven trackage.
The local paper, the Providence Journal Bulletin still takes boxcars of newsprint on a cool little industrial spur located off the Northeast Corridor (Amtrak Shoreline Main) just south (compass west) of the passenger station near the site of the old Providence Produce Mart (Merchants Cold Storage in NYNH&H days) off the the lead of the remains of old New Haven Yard 17.
But enough history, on to the story and photos.
I was driving home from a night of work on this past Monday morning when I saw P&W PR3 roll beside me on the Pawtucket Providence city line where the mainline parallels I95 at the site of the old Northup Avenue Yards.
The weather was cool, clear, and perfect for a New England fall day and it was still early (only a bit after 8 AM) so I figured if traffic would let me I would try to get ahead of them and park up on Federal Hill and grab a nicely lit going away shot of them at Atwells Interlocking.
As luck would have it they were held of the station for an Amtrak Regional and an MBTA local (freight trains with haz mat are not allowed in the tunnels at the station at the same time as any passenger trains are present per Amtrak rules) affording me enough time to fight traffic and get in position.
I got my shot and was ready to leave when I noticed them stop and then heard them talk to the Amtrak DS. The dispatcher asked them if they would be ok on track 10 in Cranston with their high wides. But then I did a double take and realize they just had tanks and gons, no high wides. This could only mean one thing....they were stopping to work the Journal and pick up the high Plate F boxcars!
I was in luck. I've wanted to shoot a train working this spur forever, and I got it with no planning, no advance knowledge, in perfect weather, on a work day, and without even having to cut into my sleep! Sometimes it just all comes together!
Oh, and original bought new P&W GP38s on their home road. Does it get any better....no, not around here it doesn't!
Anyway, now for the photos.
PR3 shoves out of the Journal lead and across Harris Ave into the remains of the old NH yard 17.

A journal made for the Brooklyn Library 2022 Sketchbook Time Capsule project. The journals of 1000 participants will be buried and not opened until 2072 -- 50 years! That's why they are so small. I made the 1st 3 pages yesterday. Hopefully, I'll have enough birds to fill the 14pp.
