Now that they’ve started to hit subscribers’ mailboxes, I figured a note here was in order. I’ve got two articles appearing in the March 2012 issues of the two largest railroad magazines. First is a short piece and a photo in TRAINS as a part of their Funky Freights feature about some of the shipments the Providence & Worcester makes to Electric Boat in Groton. And second is my Valley Railroad article featuring the rebuilding of No. 3025 which appears in Railfan & Railroad. But in addition to the article – which ended up spanning 8 pages in the final layout of the magazine – I landed the front cover! Third magazine cover overall for me (Railpace and Railroad Explorer were the other two), but this was my first time on R&R’s cover! So if you don’t subscribe, head down to your local hobby shop or bookstore/newsstand and pick up a copy. Feel free to let me know what you think of the two articles here, or drop me an email.
And stay tuned for a photo-heavy post from the NECR/PW/CN office car special that ran between St. Albans, VT and Worcester, MA on February 7, 2012.
Thanks!

Tom,
For me, your slide show presentation, June 2nd at the NE Proto Meet was a highlight of the show. Thank you for documenting the story of #3025′s re-birth.

Dick-
Thank you for the kind words – I’m glad you enjoyed! It was a fun process to document, and I’m pleased others found the results as satisfying.
Thanks!
