I apparently missed this photo a long time back. UP stands for Union Pacific www.uprr.com. The UP bought them and IF they are still in service somewhere across the vast UP system, they could still be in service. But at the moment, I can't be 100% sure.

Although looking like a desert shot, this was taken in the West Springfield MA yard. A line up of former Guilford Transportation engines, I have no idea what the "UP" is for.[/quote]

I caught a couple trains the other day heading through Utica NY on the CSX (formerly New York Central) mainline.
First, a former Conrail engine leading a line of intermodels.

Another intermodel trail this time led by a couple of CSX engines.

Last year, I mentioned driving cross country of a whole bunch of trolley cars off I-80 in PA, at Exit 81.
This time I stopped and looked. They are old SEPTA trolley cars sitting in the lot.
Have the pic, too big to upload. Any help in posting it, let me know.
Stay safe, Brothers.

I was finally able to catch Norfolk Southern V-31 on the old NF&D Blackwater River Bridge with the sun in the right position.

Thank God! A passenger train to break up the monotony. (probably running late.)

Just adjacent to the location of last weekend Eustis FL Fire Muster were the track of the Inland Lakes Rwy. They operate run a tourist train out of Eustis. This GP-9 was sitting at the station. It is a 1954 unit originally built for the Union Pacific.

John, the mainline in Utica is AMAZING!!!!!!! Did I mention that the fun doubles if you go to Fairport? I cant wait to get back up there this summer when we visit my grandparents.

Sorta random, but still related to trains, anyone model RR in addition to train photography?

Found this locomotive and caboose on display in Mulberry FL while on the Florida Winter Thaw - 2008 trip last week. I couldn't find any ID or builders plates on the loco, but believe that it probably worked in one of the phospate mining plants in the area. FLJackphoto.
