  1. Let's play bridge

    Let's play bridge

    The CN road local crawils over the bridge as the Riverview signal is passable. This guy showed up minutes after the 903, and he had GP38s 4703 and 4782 on. Looks like 1995.

    CN5444

    Alot of old friends came to visit me today. Here we see CN 5444, which I have crossed paths with atleast 3 times. Behind the SD50 is an Illinois Central SD40-2R 6058. They took CN 450 into the hole to wait for an Westbound coal train.

  7. Smoking Away

    Smoking Away

    CN 2229 is on the lead again, and is now charging east with 2542. They had just met another train and were notching out of a crawl. The 2229 has been pouring alot more fumes then most other GEVOs. Perhaps she is not being maintained very well? The tarped flat was laoded with locomotve axels.

  9. Saskatchewan?

    Saskatchewan?

    With the right framing, Saskatchewan sure looks like remote Northern Ontario. Those steep hills, I mean flat Prarie, doesn't help. The last of this year's snow is melting away in the shadow, as freshly painted CP 5943 heads an Intermodal west to Calgary. 2:55pm CP 457 on waterbridge (MP...

    CP Saskatoon

    Perhaps I can talk my dad into making this his new fishing spot. There were fisherman and pelican's all over. With intermodal up front, 457 looks like a mainline train from the good-old-days (pre-1995/AC4400CW era), not the regional manifest he is. 2:55pm CP 457 on waterbridge (MP 111.5...

    The South City in the City

    The power on the South City Switcher roars with all its might up the 3% grade to the Caltrain main with 16 loads, while the conductor stands by. Iconic landmarks of San Francisco loom in the background: the Bay Bridge, I-280, and the downtown skyline.

  14. Whoops!

    Whoops!

    Southbound Tacoma to Pasco derailed about 7 cars, but only on one side. I'm amazed how the rail stood up to the tremendous pressure applied by the flange on the other rail. This happened at approximately 3:15pm on March 30th, 2008. The train stopped just under the Narrows Bridge.
