BNSF 2740, a GP39M still sporting both its original GP30 carbody and BN paint, leads BN Barstow out of the Barstow Yard. Of course, my 86 truck poses nearby.

This is Bob. We called him Trainyard Bob. He lives right off the tracks and wasn't sure about us when we drove up. We told him we loved trains and loved to take pictures of them. Then he opened up. Told us all the history of trains and railroads in this part of Montana. Talked for hours.
(btw he's carrying a cage that he was using to trap varmint that dig and cause damage to the rails)

Trainyard
Bozeman, Montana
We took a starlight train ride through the desert around Ely, Nevada, and after the wonderful trip, an employee from Nevada Northern Railway Museum saw me with my camera and tripod. He said I was more than welcome to photograph the trainyard at night. I think I got some really cool images. I can't recommend you going to the museum enough.

Though there isn`t much snow the ice and the cold on this January day kept most of society home bound.

IAIS 519, the newest engine on the Iowa's roster, leads CBBI onto the BNSF Industrial track at Rock Island, IL. 519 wears a "Paul H. Banner" decal, in honor of one of the original chairmen of the Iowa Interstate.
GP40-2 #311 and GP38-2 #203 pull freight out of the yard at East Deerfield, Mass.
Apparently, the gondola in the background was burning due to some welding/torching work on the RIP track.

L'affectation locale n°501 du New England Central trie des wagons au triage Italy. La 1750 est une antique EMD SD9, un modèle assez rare construite en 1959 pour le Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range. Aujourd'hui, en 2025, elle est garée au centre de ce même triage avec des SD40-3, toutes en attente de démolition.
NECR's local assignment 501 switches cars at the Italy yard. Engine 1750 is an antique EMD SD9, a fairly rare model built in 1959 for the Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range. Today, in 2025, it sits in the center of that same yard with SD40-3s, all awaiting scrap.

A railroad crew has left the class lights burning on this former Conrail C40-8W in the Cayce, South Carolina yard. Built in 1990 as CR 6052, she was retired by CSX in 2018 and sold to General Electric Company as GECX #7301.
Been trying to add lots of train content to my library. I didn't check the schedules, but I was in the north burbs at my folks place and had my camera with, so I stopped to get something shot yesterday.
The North Star commuter line zipped by a few times on the right of the frame, so it wasn't a total lost cause, although there wasn't too much other activity, sadly.
Hobo grubb in an abdanoned conductors' bunkhouse near Ryland Heights Kentucky. The drink of choice to wash down the BoyArDee at this particular site was Milwaukee's Best Ice.
Taken the same day as Paint the Sky. As the sun was setting low I noticed the angle and pumpkin on a post view with the smoke stack, so I tried to make it work. I hope, for those of you looking, the monochrome helps to set the tone of the shot. :)
It's been a bad week for rail photography.
Just a day after I found out about Drew Jacksich passing comes this news of another great loss. Former Milwaukee Road engineer Tom Farence passed away two days ago in Port Byron, Illinois - gone to the last "Milwaukee Patrol."
This is one of his photos from the Milwaukee shops area in Milwaukee. I do not know the date, but bicentennial #156 seems like a fitting way to bid adieu to one of the great rail photographers.
Below is the web site he was building and an obituary.

A beautiful set of F3 diesels sits at CNW's Proviso yard in this early 50's Kodachrome by Richard Horn. Wolf Rd. crossing can be seen in the distance. My favorite CNW paint scheme.

Saw this trainyard near Kennywood and really liked the composition of the shot. The heights of everything reminded me of stadium seating. Shot on a Samsung NX1000 f/5.0, 1/320, ISO100, 20-50mm Lens
