Brian's Trackside Log: June 2012
http://tracksidelog.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Posts to this blog describe my various. Trips to the railway to photograph trains. Sunday, June 17, 2012. Trackside Log for Sunday, June 17, 2012. It's been two months since the last trackside photograph. Lately I've had some other higher priorities and, honestly, I haven't been very inspired by the local motive power. (Oh yeah, and Canadian Pacific went on strike in there too.). 1709 Fenwick - CP northbound - CP 8223-CP 8206. The local power was delivering three loads of pipe to Cappco. Links to My Stuff.

Posts to this blog describe my various. Trips to the railway to photograph trains. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Trackside Log for Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Today was Leap Day. I took the day off, mostly to participate in a Leap Year Day photography project over at Google. But I did have the scanner on while I was at home. Unfortunately I missed the empty ethanol train, but I did hear from the Canadian Pacific local just before it was leaving Welland Yard to pick up empty pipe cars from Cappco. Sam w...

Posts to this blog describe my various. Trips to the railway to photograph trains. Thursday, November 22, 2012. Trackside Log for Thursday, November 22, 2012. Today I had the scanner on in the background and heard a clearance for an SD40-2 to depart Welland Yard for Kinnear Yard. I decided, since catching SD40-2s is quite difficult any more, to drive over to Farr Street to have a look. 1142 Fenwick - CP 541 north - CP 5945-CP 6079-CP 5957. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Framing photographs in this much fo...

Posts to this blog describe my various. Trips to the railway to photograph trains. Friday, September 30, 2011. Trackside Log for Friday, September 30, 2011. Today was a dismal rainy autumn day. Why not create some dreary photographs of trains? After missing a train 255 I heard on the scanner that a pair of southbounds were on the way. I got Missy and my camera and headed out into the rain for photos. First was train 254 working Welland Yard. I waited for it to depart at Philips Road. I wasn't able to get...

I was just about to take Missy to Welland for some photography and a walk along the Welland Canal when I heard a train approaching from the south. The new plan was to walk back to the tracks for a photograph of the northbound before the drive to Welland. 1644 Fenwick - CP northbound - CP 8212-CP 8200. Saturday, October 29, 2011.
