From the (rear) Window of a Train

taken from a tourist train in Tennessee.

Excellent photos guys...I really think some of the best photos have come out the rear window.

Chris, you are right. I love the scenery from the rear window, as well as the train operations. It is not as easy to do as it once was, in the days of observation cars, but at least it can still be done at times. Here's views of the scenery as we went north.  Starts leaving Penn Station, then the palisaides, George Washington Bridge, "up the river" to Sing Sing, and other views. 

Had to make sure to get West Point, since oldest teaches there.

Great shots - thanks for sharing!

Now, a few shots from the rear of the Boston section of The Lake Shore Limited.

First: Albany to Springfield.

Passing the Westbound train, through Worcester, and into the Boston area at night between Back Bay and South Station.

Blessed some time ago: Between Harrisburg and Philly from the back of observation car PRR 120 at 90 mph.
