I assume you mean Union Station. Can you see CSX or PW yards from this location? Will there be much activity on a Saturday? Thanks for the info.

Hello - I am going to be in Worcester, MA this Saturday 10/17/15. I am looking for a place to watch and photograph CSX operations. I used to go to Worcester years ago but I have been told the site I went to by the scrap yard no longer exists. I am looking for a safe place where I won't be trespassin...

Thanks for the reply. Being from this area for many years I can remember the planes flying under the bridge too and the newspaper articles about them as well.

Derailment - Mason, NH - 1965

A friend of mine showed me a color photo (probably a print made from a slide) of a derailment in Mason, NH in 1965. He is looking for additional information. It appears to be a 1500 class (sorry I forgot the exact number) GP7 or GP9 being rerailed by a sideboom crane. Any a help will be appriciated.

This is another case of a STUPID truck driver. That is the only way to phrase it. I know that intersection very well. It is clearly marked with flashing lights and signs including "Do No Stop On Tracks". The train travels through there four times per day in construction season and it only ...

I enjoy railfanning along the Connectict River between Brattleboro,VT and Claremont,NH. Especially the Bellows Falls,VT area. It is one of the few places near me that I can see much operating and any variety. The problem I have is knowing a good time to be there to see some action. Up until now it b...
