Steam Train - Snowdon
Workers busy at work to refueling the train to take tourist up to the mountains
The Swanage Railway is the picture postcard branch line to the seaside. Steam trains run for six miles from Norden through the beautiful Purbeck countryside, past the magnificent ruins of Corfe Castle to the Victorian seaside town of Swanage.
In het paasweekend was de Dinner Train weer te zien in het Groene Hart. TCS 102001 (ex-NS 1835) rijdt bij het sportpark Cromwijck in Woerden met een kalm gangetje in de richting van Bodegraven en de eindbestemming Haarlem.
I shared a super chase of a B&P southbound with friends Bob Todten and Dennis Nehrenz on the same day as Super Bowl XXIII. It was topped off with this shot of the former BR&P bridge over the Allegheny River at Mosgrove, Pa. FWIW, the 49'ers beat the Bungals in one of the closer Super Bowls. January 22, 1989

Wikipedia: Canadian National 89 is a E-10-a class 2-6-0 "Mogul" type steam locomotive, built in February 1910 by the Canadian Locomotive Company (CLC) for the Grand Trunk Railway (GT). Originally number No. 1009, it was renumbered to No. 911 in 1919. It then came under Canadian National (CN) ownership in 1923 when the Grand Trunk merged. It was then renumbered again to No. 89 in 1951. Most of No. 89's early life is a mystery, but it spent the latter part of its working life in Quebec until retirement in 1958 and being stored in the deadline in Montreal. It was purchased by F. Nelson Blount in 1961, who sent it to operate on the Green Mountain Railroad (GMRC) and later Steamtown, U.S.A.. It was then purchased in 1972 by the Strasburg Rail Road (SRC) who were looking for an engine to pull the half-hour trains. As of 2025, it is in operation at the Strasburg Railroad.
Here is one of my first pictures with the Fujifilm Instax Mini 90. And a first "incident" on film (on the right top corner). I don't know what happened, maybe a little drop of rain, but I love that anomaly and my new camera!
Nog net voor het instappen even gauw een plaatje

Station Haarlem
The very first mixed train to run on the ARR in over three decades is highballing north at track speed rolling through the junction at NSS Matanuska (MP 151.4 on the ARR mainline). Three SD70MACs lead a 2300 ft train consisting of 13 coaches (with 120 paying passengers), 7 COFC flats, and 10 loaded tank cars of diesel fuel operating as train 230N, the regular weekly Saturday northbound Aurora passenger train. This definitely isn't the kind of train out of Mixed Train daily that Beebe and Clegg would recognize!
The ARR is exercising an FRA waiver that I spearheaded along with General Road Foreman Bruce Pryke to run mixed trains allowing us to consolidate some traffic and operate as efficiently and cost effectively as possible. The ARR was always an innovator and not afraid to look to the past for solutions to problems in the present....it was a special place to work and I'm honored to have had the chance to lead there for a half dozen years.

I generally dislike seeing CSX power on this KCS train or its counterpart, the I-VNKC...unless it's clean like this leader. This train will become the Q106.

February 22, 2010, and the water cycle is in full effect. Rain and warmer temps are causing the snow to revert to a semi-gaseous form, causing a haze of fog as a loaded Ohio Central coal train rolls north a few miles north of Zanesville, Ohio.
Back in the day, I would have called this a GLT, Glouster Turn, because it has the nice neat loaf of coal in the gons behind the power, but I think the folks at G&W had changed the symbol to BOT by then. I never bothered to listen to the scanner back then, so I don't know. If saw a train from the office window, I knew it was train time. And if the power/weather/light was good, it was lunchtime too.

I always try to look for interesting bits of detail in my railway images, so this suited me down to the ground. Seen at Llangollen here as the crew give the Loco a well deserved drink of water

A busy scene on the approach to Manchester Piccadilly on 5th October 2015. 5 different classes of DMU and not an electric train in sight despite the forest of OLE!
It's Santa time at Fort Blackmore as Clinchfield 800 brings the 75th edition of the Santa Train to town. CSX did it right with this one; I can't wait to see what they do for the 100th edition.
That is, assuming that CSX and I are still around in 25 years.
