Kids Gone Choo Choo . It's been the best year chasing trains with my two boys. I documented our experiences in our Blog: Kids Gone Choo Choo Some Highlights: Chehalis Centralia Railroad A Day on the Sounder Barnum & Bailey's Circus Train The Pineapple Express - Oahu, Hawaii . Cheerio to 2009 and may 2010 be the best Railfanning year ever!
It seemed like I didn't do a lot of railfanning but looking back now, seems i did get some neat stuff. This year saw me visit many states and get to rail fan in most. My favorite shot from the year has to be this BNSF train on Tehachapi Loop. I saw some neat shortline equipmet like this switcher at the airport in Mojave CA. And cool passenger equipment like this special paint job And I got some hot new BNSF power pulling coal through Temple TX
There was this old wooden hack outside the BNSF shops in Cleburne TX An unpatched Cotton Belt unit in FtWorth TX And then there was this odd ball CSX super 7 working the Ohio Central yard in Newark Ohio. Then there was day out with Thomas at the TVRM in Chattanooga TN.
There were some neat special loads along the rails too. Here's some type of boiler passing through Ft Worth TX There was lots of other stuff too but those are some pretty good highlights from the year. Don't worry though, with all that meat, I did manage to get my vegtables in durring all this. Here's a cabbage in Ft Worth TX Here's hoping everyone has a great year railfanning in 2010. Be safe and have fun.

Kicking up a cloud of snow is so fine. :thumbs_up::thumbs_up: Looks so much more wholesome than the dirt and dust that get kicked up around here.
