The leaves are still green but looks like Mr. Goodson has cut corn so it's the beginning of fall as this even-numbered mixed freight is moving westbound. Due to the end points this oddity lasted ... (more)

Westbound mixed freight with a high & wide. We were near first to lose our CPLs. These are OK. Just wish NS would discover the economy and reliability of LEDs. Oh yeah, you can see them too!

Just as they have for decades another train passes Mr. Goodson's mailbox but today there is no garden between the road and the railroad indicating Mr. Goodson has gone. His unique old mailbox sti... (more)

In a rare move Bristol based local turn V19 has run east to deliver something somewhere in the morning. This must have been a hot load which couldn't wait for the V40s night run. Spring is burst... (more)
