This is NJT's new Ramsey Park & Ride. This was taken a month before my last day.:tb-hissyfit: Just brought to light,I guess I can't win do to a date reg. Oh Well.
Dorval, Quebec - July 28, 2008 - Train 64 arriving from Toronto, on the way to downtown Montreal. Dave.
Ummm... Shall I assume that the dates here and the reference to "modellers" are both left over from a previous competition?
Old Pufferbelly Station I didn't have much time to railfan this weekend but I did get a chance to capture a shot of the old Pufferbelly Station in Grand Junction. Ben
Today I drove to Ft Payne AL and got this picture of the ex-SOU rock station. Very beautiful station.
While there, I got this video of an NS freight train.....and look what the rear unit was! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBq6zpsoSfE"]YouTube - NS Ft Payne Station[/ame]
UP depot at St James MN This is the former C&NW depot at St James, MN. The structure is stucco with an asphalt shingle roof. It is in use by UP crews at this time.
Louisville Union Station- built in 1890 by the L&N. It's located on 10th & Broadway in Louisville, KY. Nashville, TN had a similar union station also on the corner of 10th & Broadway.
A great show this week--I finally have a submission, too. Helena, MT--a GEVO leads coal loads and light SD70ACe helpers await crews:
Ft Payne, IIRC, is the home of the country singing group that a few of us know as Alabama. Cool shot!
Yeah, the first time I drove through there heading up to Chattanooga, I saw a road sign that said something about the "Alabama Museum". I thought that it was an out of the way little town to put a museum for the State of Alabama.
Yep...your both correct! The band members of Alabama do live in Ft Payne. In fact, Kimberly used to live in Ft Payne and we drove to some of there houses on the mountain behind the station. Talk about nice! Didn't go into the bands museum, but I see that coming on another trip.
Rats, I spaced it again got too busy with other things and forgot all about the contest till now! Oh well till next time!
I didn’t get one either, even thou I had everything planned. The wife got up to sick to drive Saturday and we had 5 grandkids all day Sunday. inch
