A decent array of power around the turntable in Cumberland.

After spending 20 minutes cornering these fellas so that they would be in my shot, it finally paid off.

B702's third unit brings some empties down to Maryland Metals. This track was ROUGH! Ironic how the line is called the "Security Branch" as with that track "security" is the last word that comes... (more)

Check out the storm in the distance! This train is way overpowered but he picked up about 30 cars from the Penn Southern in Culbertston. CSX stopped through service in 2000 on this line and this... (more)

Rough track on the branch line to Maryland Metals in Hagerstown.

Talk about a perfect fit! At about 9 PM, a bomb train with a caboose crosses the Potomac river.

A very rare move for the Penn Southern to work on a Wednesday but this FRA office car had to be brought to their shops. With fresh snow, they picked this car up from CSX. The Army Depot is parti... (more)

View of the Cumberland yard at its widest point from a Cessena 414.

The 7110 is being set off, looking like a mistreated Athearn GP60 with those bent handrails. The other GP60 and the "Pumpkin" hooked up to the 212 and 212's power took the 211 south.

The 702 heads back from Highfield light. He will then switch MD Metals. This apple country makes a majestic setting for the train.

A US Sillica Plymouth switcher that once worked the sand mines, now on display outside the offices.

In the cab of the WM 132. Note the 24RL automatic brake.

VERY rare to see a six axle slug in Vardo. This freshly painted slug is coming from Juniata Shops and bound for Linwood, NC. Horsehead SD40-2 that are ex-N&W are rare too.
