Finally, caught up! This past Tuesday I had to head down to NJ for work, and like I usually do, I took the Acela from New London down to Newark Penn Station. On my way back to drop the rental car off in the afternoon, I decided to check things […]

This past Saturday was the third annual Berkshire Scenic Railway Museum’s Night Photo Shoot – one of the two regular shoots I participate in, and help plan (the other being the CT Eastern RR Museum in Willimantic – here’s the CERM 2008 night shoot). There was a light crowd of […]
Getting closer…now we’re up to what I shot last week! Providence & Worcester train NR-2 shifted their schedule recently. They’re now coming into Groton around 8:30AM, which actually makes it easier for me to get out and catch them a bit more often than I have been. So last week, […]
OK, now we skip forward a bit – 18 days to be exact. Yep, eighteen days! Work has me going straight out, so I haven’t been able to shoot much (and obviously write blog posts). But I’ve also had to travel to New Jersey a couple times for work, which […]
Catching up, volume 2 (of 90 or so…not really, only 4 more after this). This’ll be a quickie, though. The cruise ship, Explorer of the Seas, made another port of call in New London back on August 1st. I caught it tying up to the State Pier that morning, along […]
Yeah, you guessed it, I’m behind again. Time for a flurry of updates over the next day or so to catch up. Here’s installment #1 on that batch – from July 31st. That was a day that Nick Palazini, David Telesha and Jon (I can’t for the life of me […]
Just a little heads-up if you’re interested. I’ll be putting on a slideshow this Sunday evening, August 17th, at the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum‘s membership meeting. It’s at 7pm in the conference rooms at Windham Hospital in Willimantic, CT. Anyone is welcome to come along, even if you’re not a […]
One of the discussion groups I’m on has been talking about night photography lately. That discussion prompted me to go through my stuff and pick out some of what I thought were my better images taken between dusk and dawn – both using artificial (flash or flashlight) and natural (ambient) […]
Last weekend – July 26th to be precise – was the magazine Railroads Illustrated’s Day In North America feature. This is when the magazine picks one day and tells photographers to go out and shoot on that day. They then publish one issue with basically a cross-section of railroading on […]
OK, behind again in the posts. Got a few to catch up on – so here’s the first, which is from July 24th when I caught New England Central train NERWPA in Willimantic doing some switching in the yard.
