Thanks Mike. I should have known that. It's been a long time since I did that I forgot to right click.

You know it's funny you said this. Out here we don't see many CSX engines. So far this year I have seen 2 and both were in the 3rd position running backwards.

We see UP and BNSF and a few Norfolk Southern and of course Amtrack and our local Metrolink.

Whenever someone finds out that a certian loco is coming our way they post it and sure enough it gets chased.

heh... CSX and amtrak is about the only thing seen around here.

a UP around here is just as rare as a Chessie System loco.


seen a number of norfolk and some old con-rails running around.

Your welcome Tomb R.

Gunny you should have some really awesome photos!!!

Atom, I once caught a 4 engine consist on a Union Pacific lines. It had a 2 UP Locos up front, behind it was a Canadian National and then a BNSF. I was in the wrong place to get a good shot. I'll have to resize it before I can post it here.

Awesome....I love train pictures especially some of the classic older ones! Thanks for sharing!

Grew up with a smaller trainset and would spend hours playing and building up my train set....just call me a train GEEK. Living in Revelstoke one of Canadian Pacific Railway's transfer stations I get to see some amazing trains that roll in on the tracks.

The train below is the one that comes into town about 4 or 5 times a year with special passengers and is the train they use as the Christmas Train decorated in Christmas lights!
