DL&W 368, which was the only Lackawanna locomotive I ever saw, was the highlight of a trip to Marion, Ohio in December 1967. Perhaps there were other Lackawanna locomotives in Ohio at that time, b... (more)

It's July 1, 1972, and this is the Monongahela Railway yard. Baldwin RF-16A "Sharks" 1216 and 1205 are here to greet us. Old work equipment and cabooses are to the left, and to the right are Baldw... (more)

Timken 4501 is seen outside the plant near Harrison Ave. SW.

It's a sunny morning in the late 1960's or very early 1970's, and Erie 507 and EL 516 are both wearing black paint. Today the engine house, the tracks, and the diesels are long gone, but for a mom... (more)

EL 1245 plus caboose makes a simple picture. There is no unnecessary background because Kent is a flat, open yard with more through freights and fewer cars to pick up. This was taken in the late 1... (more)

EL 833 waits by the EL passenger station in Marion, Ohio. With its nose door open, perhaps there is a problem, but 43 years is a long time to remember what was going on. On the other hand, EL 833 ... (more)

It's nearly fall 1997, and a single passenger sits at one of the outside picnic tables as OHCR 13 (ex-BC&G 13) awaits its next departure time. Soon #13 and its train will leave, but for a moment t... (more)

It's a Blue Mountain and Reading Railfan Weekend, and RDG 5308 and 5513 are pulling a short freight. Whether this was to actually be a freight move or a short photo freight, I don't know, but it i... (more)
