youtu.be/R75kvfQJfT0?... Here's the video!! #train #railfan

This is the single most incredible shot I've ever taken as a railfan. While fanning in Auburn, I saw an eastbound empty grain train heading for Stampede Pass. I was picking up a printer up the pass anyways and chased it to Palmer Junction, where it appeared right as a rainbow shone!! #railfan #train

Woke up this morning to news that SVM is severely curtailing operations and leaving hundreds of folks without work, including 60% of the Trona's employees. I was told when I visited that things were getting bad but this is just a gut punch. The Trona is one of those railroads that seemed immortal

Renton Rocket this morning. With the news that BNSF is looking to retire most 4 axle units on their roster, scenes like these are going to become rarer and rarer. Get them while you can!

Thanks for the congratulations 18 years after the event in question, YouTube 🫠 What, were you out getting cigarettes that entire time?

It took me a solid 15 seconds to realize what was wrong and oh god I hate it so much

Streaking into retirement On my last morning along the NEC in August, I braved the heat to meet one of my best friends for the first time in person at the Levittown station. I'd known him since 2017, so getting to chill, eat Wawa and watch the rapidly changing corridor was a dream come true for me.

Last of their kind - The E60C-2s of the Deseret Power Railway are nostalgic to me in an odd way. I got the chance in September to stave off the grief I feel for the BM&LP by filming the Deseret for a week, and a trio of E60s races a thundercell on their way to Bonanza.

Still waiting to hear back from NTEC before I make the trek up to Farmington to film the Navajo Mine but it's increasingly looking like that isn't going to be happening. The nice thing about plans changing is the opportunity for new plans :)

CP 502 in East Chicago is one of my favorite railfanning locations in all of the Midwest. NS's Chicago Line is crossed here by the IHB main, which hosts, among other trains, the famous bottle trains. An NS GP38-2 leads one such train during the bitterly cold November of 2016. #railfan #railfanning
