On Sunday January 26th, 2025 I gave chase on the Goodspringer on the Reading and Northern with a trio of SD40-2's rolling through a spectacular winter wonderland. I first found the train working in the yard at West Cressona and decided to give chase up the Tremont Branch toward Good Spring. Shots on this chase included Becks Crossing, Westwood Junction, Tremont, and Donaldson.

On Monday January 13th, 2024 I ended up in Gardeners, Pennsylvania on the Gettysburg and Northern Railroad in Adam's County. We caught the weekday on its return back to Gettysburg with 3833 and 1001 for power as they roll southbound through Gardners.

On Thursday January 9th, 2025 I made a visit to the CSX River Line in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey. CSX action was pretty limited in the afternoon with two southbound intermodals and B706 with some foreign power as they were picking up cars from the New York Susquehanna and Western. We then concluded the action with a catch of the SU-99. After missing the train at Maywood, I decided to test my l...

The day after seeing JB-2, I chased Conrail's SA-31 from East Brunswick to Jamesburg. The power on today's run was CSX GP40-2 6160 pulling three center beams loaded with lumber bound for the Delaware and Raritan River Railroad interchange in Jamesburg. The final destination for these cars would be Builders General in Freehold, New Jersey.

On Tuesday January 7th, 2025 I gave chase of C&D JB-2 from Lakewood to Freehold on the its return trip to home base in Jamesburg. These empty center beams out of Woodhaven Lumber were bound for the interchange with Conrail Shared Assets. The power today was GP9U 1888 and GP9 752.

On Friday January 3rd 2025, I met up my friends Wesley and William and showed them around a few places in Central New Jersey. We started at Bound Brook where we got a mix of NJT, CSX, Norfolk Southern, and Conrail Shared Assets. After that it was on to Metuchen on the Northeast Corridor which included a mix of NJT and Amtrak. We concluded the day with the PM Rush Hour on the North Jersey Coastl...

The first train in 2025 was definitely a good one. I once again made the return to the Delaware and Raritan River Railroad and their JB-1 turn as they were making the return trip from the busy Freehold business district to Jamesburg to interchange with Conrail Shared Assets. The train was led by GP9 752 with 5 cars bracketed in the middle with GP9U 1888 on the rear.

The final day of 2024 brought me to yet another new location for me. Alburtis, Pennsylvania is located on the eastern portion of Norfolk Southern's Reading Line just west of Allentown. We caught two eastbound trains during the short stay. Those included H11 heading back to Allentown and 28X continuing east for New Jersey with 4004 leading the way.

One of the many short line railroads in Eastern Pennsylvania that has been on my bucket list for quite a long time has been the Pennsylvania Northeastern railroad. Half of the railroad's fleet is comprised of ex CN and CP SD40-2's. All three of the former Canadian 6 Axels were running out of the railroads Lansdale yard on the former Reading Railroad's Bethlehem Branch. We caught the tail end of...

Septa's Warminster Line is a former Reading Railroad branch line that splits off the main at Glenside heading towards Warminster and eventually towards the Delaware River to the end of the line in New Hope, Pennsylvania. In Willow Grove we caught both of Septa's electrified equipment that is utilized on their regional rail system in and out of Philadelphia.

It was just two days after Christmas and railroads of Reading, Pennsylvania continued to bring business in and out of the city. Norfolk Southern was the star of the show on this beautiful sunny day, but the Reading and Northern and East Penn Railway also made some contributions as well. We visited various locations in the Reading area including places such as Wyosmissing JCT and Sinking Spring ...

On my final NS Buffalo Line outing of 2024 I caught 4 of the locals out of Northumberland Yard. The day started in Watsontown where we chased K22 east on the Watsontown Secondary. After that we went back to Northumberland Yard and caught NSHR-1, K21, and H53 all returning back to the yard.

Another day an yet another steam locomotive. This time, its on the Strasburg Railroad in Lancaster County. This was first time at Strasburg in two years and I got to shoot N&W 475 with the Southern Pacific 6 Chime whistle pulling the railroad's Santa trains. Afterwards, I caught Amtrak 42 heading east at milepost 59.2 on the Keystone Corridor at the site of the former Irishtown Road grade cross...

Southern New Jersey on Saturday November 30th brought beautiful sunny skies and incredible railroad action on the Woodstown Central Railroad and Conrail Shared Assets. The star of the show was 0-6-0 #9 making her excursion debut on the Woodstown Central which has slowly been making a name for itself as one of the rising excursion railroads not just in New Jersey, but also throughout the northea...
