Me being a terrible influence continues. I don’t enjoy doing it, but I do like the results, sometimes. #trb_express #railpictures #railphotography #railphotos_usa #railpics_insta #trainphotography #trainphotographics #trainphotograph #trainphotographer #railfanning #railsupremacy #diesellocomotive #norfolksouthernheritageunit #norfolksouthern

It’s December, so I have finally allowed myself to start listening to Christmas music. The weekend after Thanksgiving unexpectedly featured a lot of Wheeling & Lake Erie action. On Friday, I heard that 614, one of the local jobs, was running to Clairton, thence to Monessen to pick up coke cars. I arrived late, so I only saw the light move from Clairton to Monessen, but still shot some bridges that were new to me. #wheelingandlakeerie #wheelingandlakeerierailway #trb_express #trainphotography #trainphotographics #trainphoto #trainpics #railroadtrestle #railroadbridge #railphotography #railpictures #railphotos_usa #railpics_insta #railroadphotography #railroadphoto #sd40dash2 #denverandriograndewestern #pittsburghtrains

AVR-3 working 84 Lumber in October 2025. This store is located next to the company’s global headquarters, and seems to get a car once or twice a month. #carloadexpress #trainphotos #railroadphotography #railphotography #shortlinerailroad

The brief weekday Metroliner. Starting in late February through mid-March, likely in conjunction with the Portal bridge cutover, Amtrak changed which trains ran with a Metroliner cab car south of Philadelphia. Instead of Train 121 running Sundays-only with a cab leading south, Train 126 ran 7 days a week with a cab facing north. I became aware of this change accidentally while railfanning the Susquehanna bridge, and attempted to shoot the return run heading north at Odenton. I would take another crack at the train in early March, but those shots did not turn out. #metroliner #amtrak #northeastcorridor #trainphotographics #railroadphotography

Spent two days trying to get the first shot to a place I liked and still am not sure I got the right mix, which means it’s probably terrible. Anyway, M408 heading north over the Anacostia back in February while I was on my way back from Baltimore. #csxtransportation #trainphotographics #trainphotography #sunsetphotography #railroadphotography
