Resurrected this from an old negative I found in a box from the olden days.  I had to trick my scanner into thinking it was 35mm film instead of the old 126 film.  Sorry for the poor quality, but it outside of the front end of a U28B, it also shows NYC run through power on the CB&Q at the edge of Berwyn, IL.

Great photo blurry or not.

Took this in Madison Illinois this week 

                      Happy "F E F" everyone !!

Some steam on the Pomfret Division.

Couple of photos that I took of Amtrak Silvers P42s heading northbound from Florida.

First, a consist led by #2 and #119 blasting through the Cypress Creek Tri-Rail station (not an Amtrak stop) on May 17, 2012

And then #58 at Winter Haven on Thanksgiving weekend 2016

Happy FEF!

I took this pic in Virginia City, Montana (the other one, also a gold mining ghost town):

If you look carefully you can see people sitting on the front edge of the tender immediately behind the cab. That is where we rode as well. You get to watch the Engineer and Fireman plying their trade .

This train, owned and operated by the state, is no longer in operation 

NYS&W Alco C430 #3004 at Little Ferry, NJ- Dec. 86'. On 02/03/87 this engine hit an ice packed crossing in upstate NY, flipped over and was wrecked ending its' career that began with the New York Central. Sister engine #3002 suffered a similar fate a few months later.

That’s Sweet! Great job Lew

Lee, I only get that lighting from a Winter Sun in the afternoon when it sneaks in the South-facing window.

Lee Drennen, you can post all the pictures of the Illini Terminal locomotives you find. Seeing them takes me back in time, to my youth, watching the Illinois Terminal run past my house on ICG trackage rights.

Patrick what model is the Y6B?  I've got a Railking version.
