In the words of George Jones, "It's Finally Friday!" Let's get this motor runnin'! Since it's fall in my neck 'o the woods, here's a throwback to Oct 2021, at Lunds Valley, ND on the inactive Grenora Sub: And one from last week, in the drizzle and stormy skies:
From September 26, 2021 while bringing up the tail end of the California Zephyr on its way to Chicago, somewhere in Iowa.
NS62V, "Oscar", empty trash containers being returned to North Jersey, has no trouble making track speed as it passes the former 1926 Reading passenger station in Wernersville, PA, yesterday.
Notice how the lady with the stroller turns it toward the train as it passes so the kid can see it. My kind of lady! The ceiling is just like the one inside the dome of the Pantheon in Rome, with its square pattern. Nice touch!
Even better, she had been photographing her daughter using the station as a backdrop before Oscar came past.
