Some photos of my railfanning around the East Bay 2020

The paint jobs of the remaining War(p) Bonnets are in pretty bad shape.

Enjoyed the photos from the East Bay especially the BNSF photos and Caltrain

Too smokey too go out, so I am going through old unposted files. This one from outside Sparks NV, with a former WP GP40 in the lead.

This will be my last winter photographing the California Northern. I'm retiring in 4 months and moving to coastal Maine. Things have been getting repetitive for me with my train photography anyway, so some new scenery will be fun. I'm going to live 20 minutes away from a historic 2 foot narrow-gauge which could make for some fun steam shots.

Congratulations on your retirement! Looking forward to see what you get from the other coast!

Congrats. Looking forward to photos from the other side of the country.

No more Class I's nearby, but I will not be far from the Pan AM.

Will do Bill, but it won't be for a while. While I have a new house lined up, my last day of work is not until April 30. I'm only up north during the fall and winter though, as that is when I am at the NWRs shooting birds. I have just about another 6 weekends of opportunity for that, and the CFNR only runs on weekdays, so really only a couple of more opportunities before February to see the trains, and by then all the birds generally fly back north.
