If I could travel back again, I would. I miss that weekend chase and ride

Feels like im reliving Goodheart Productions’s chases of her in 94

WNY&TB P2e class 4-6-2 #660 seen at the North Nantahala Railroad roundhouse positioned facing the turntable while other motive power idles in and around as the visiting engine is there assisting with passenger service.

In service

It feels completely different being engaged now. I feel a lot more happier Yes, I proposed to my bf a few nights ago and he said yes!

Back to the starting point

the best drivers

A break from the real trains to show off the WNY&TB’s newest additions! (Models are based off the China Railways SL6 Pacifics)

peak fall excursion

Walking through some of these cars was very nice! I wish I got to walk through Super Dome though :(

I like how during my trip to DC, whenever we were riding anything train related, we lucked out with anything that wasn’t a Charger. Still wish I got to ride the old Acela set, but it was nice seeing them

Post something random or you’ll have an AWFUL November!

The inner circle of friends

This cross country tour can only go so well……

Stuff

Amtrak things and Pennsy lines and signals

Regional 96

I liked these things during the museum visit

Oh hey, I saw this thing

I foamed over the old Acela set just now and frowned seeing the Chargers and the NewGen Acela

Visited the White House today :/

Metro

Aight, taking a break from spamming the Milwaukee for a bit while I enjoy my vacation and take pics of other things lol

The rain was coming

Super Dome 💙

I think it’s mad y’all

Hear me out, riding vestibule is peak on any steam excursion! I needed to cross this off my bucket list for so long!

3 CHIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me when I realized I saw 3 of 4 of 1522’s old support cars on the property while looking at pics again

Stuff at 261’s base

Imagine complaining about the paint job on 32A 🙄

A recap: Saw Milwaukee Depot Shoveled coal into the 261 Was asked by the crew numerous times “so you’re the Texan we’ve been hearing so much about this weekend” Got upgraded from coach to first class Rainy day railfanning experience Got to explore the 261 base Got up close to the equipment

This has been a very fun weekend

That’s a wrap for the chase portion. Tomorrow we ride!

The best 4-8-4 ever built

CP 2816 heading up a WNY&TB ferry run in the early AM hours

The event near downtown Calgary marked the first time in more than a year that Canadian Pacific H1b 4-6-4 2816 appeared in public and under steam railfan.com/cp-2816-make...

Random footage of 261 that I never uploaded to YouTube during my visit in December
