Been a little while since I’ve posted anything from the railroad front. So to start things flowing again, I figured I’d prime the pump – so to speak – with a bunch of shots from June. Included here are a couple day’s worth of shots – one of Providence & Worcester train NR-2 and the other of an Amtrak Acela. Nothing out of the ordinary, but hey, it’s something!

First up is a few shots of P&W NR2 at Mill Cove, the USS Nautilus and Fairview yard. Along with the usual stuff, I snapped a few shots of some chalk drawings on a few of the passing cars.
