A family wedding on my mothers side. My mum is the little girl. Taken around the late 1920's.
Also Thursday Monochrome :-) HTM
CN SD70i no.5610 takes the lead of CN stack train Q14921 01 through Newtonville in some great afternoon light.
After hearing about the previous day's 148 being this pair of DC power, I set my sights on the Kingston Sub on this beautifully sunny 1st day of April. Historically, 148/149 would be a trio of SD75s/D8s/D9s + more almost every day, but as more GEVOs have flooded the CN roster it has become increasingly rare to find anything but a pair of ES44s or ET44s on the Kingston 148/149 loop. So when you get a pair like this these days, you gotta take advantage.
A now abolished Q194 races north into Bogart, GA in the waning hours of the afternoon. CSX's Abbeville Subdivision between Atlanta and Greenwood, SC at the time saw around 16-20 trains per day. Now, PSR has cut that number to around 10-12.
Since seeing @crr200's shot of the Southern Crescent (flic.kr/p/jFKSp9) at this location from nearly 40 years ago, I've made it a go-to spot for morning southbounds. Until this train, I had yet to shoot the modern Crescent here, but I finally did upon learning about the Phase I heritage unit leading the Crescent. A brief delay and good dispatching worked to my advantage as Amtrak 19 winds through the curves at Red Lane just after sunrise.
A chase of New Hampshire Northcoast D8 back in December of 2022, yielded several good shots including this one at Milton.
All the way back to 2012. One of those shots that never got posted, but should have.
Funny how seeing a really old shot like this puts you right back there, when you took the shot.
From a decade ago. A westbound goes through the interlocking at East End Miller City. Sadly the classic NKP signals are now gone.
I usually do not do portraits, so I am submitting a picture of me! Ha. Way back in 1965. So glad to be at the beginning of this wonderful group. HSS.
Went up on Cavehill one evening after work with a friend, back in March 2017, just 2 months after moving to Belfast.

This week, we go back to the last UP OCS to visit the area. Long before talks of a buyout, 066 climbs back up the mountain at MG on their westbound trip from an event in Harriman, NY. Maybe this might actually happen again someday... 6/4/18
This photo was taken with my first digital camera almost 11 years ago (I was the youthful age of 14) when my family traveled out west. I can't remember if this is in Yellowstone or Glacier National Park. Might have been the Tetons or Jackson Hole? Does this look familiar to anyone?
Group portrait of mine and my mom's dogs, back in 2015. The spaniel puppy there is now a five-year old adult hunting dog. And all of the three big girls have now passed away already. Miss them. May them rest in peace in doggy heaven.
Today as I perused files nothing caught my eye for fence fFriday--but I had recently found this while going through boxes of old photos brought home last spring after cleaning out the farm house. This is me, about 2 1/2, along with my brother, climbing a fence on our family's farm. Hff and happy weekend, everyone.
Restored Southern Railway SD40 No. 3170 sits tied down along with 3 standard Norfolk Southern SD40-2s at the 105 year old Gainesville depot after completing work on P48.
When 403 is leading a train of veteran DM&IR cars it is fun to pick a spot to "hide" the trailing CN painted power. Here 403 leads a load of Minntac (U711) pellets south between Coons and Munger. This could have been a shot before 2004, if not for a tiny hint of CN red visible through the cab.
The MRL 840 local pauses at East End Winston for a westbound. Much to our surprise and delight, the westbound turned out to be a solid consist of baretables led by an ex-ATSF Warbonnet.

Another spectacular and truly “typical Mongolia” location visited during our summer tours is the wide grassland and steppe of the Bayan and Khoolt Passes. With countless photo angles, curves, gradients, and an impressive variety of trains, this area is a true paradise for railfans... especially diesel traction lovers ;)
