Word just came down that parts of the WNYP are going dark, with no traffic for the year prior. A number of ALCOs have been scrapped recently, too, so from a railfan perspective, things appear somewhat grim.

So, according to the rules, the operator at the front of the train is supposed to control the brakes. But that was not possible due to them being disabled. The rear operator obviously was unaware that the radio was out. Even though he should have been aware, I don't think the rear operator was negl...
Before I forgot, I have more information and pictures. I need to investigate a bit further, but it seems the 3rd street carbarn was built in 1901...but I have two very different sets of pics, and need to figure out what the heck is going on. You'll see below. In any case, I see now that the Washingt...
So, on Google Maps, this is the location of the building: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgIsDEKUeaESm2ODRk3tL49G8mUUvwjuUNEWjdOoVbu1beJy8YwZmJt2yzIoFiRictL8nPwEtFhMuQTma3ewnMJOu4NN5DNl6irDYajoEOlkBthkuQgUZuO2pFHPJkyIiXK0gucFATXpK1GXUU8AfIAWqxfL1LMJpVDpgGBn75opKdT30ADVBRc-lndfPE Th...
Really cool video. Thank you!
Yes, overall. I looked through my notes to give a complete answer. One barn used is still in existence. The others are long gone. While all of Broadhead's trolley lines were interconnected, the CTC had its terminus as the Sherman house in downtown Jamestown. This location (north of Brooklyn Square, ...
The thought that the US not sending armor of our own is viewed as weakness is a staggering misunderstanding of, well, everything. The fact is that the US has sent literal billions and untold tons of materiel while providing crucial intel every step of the way. A pretty embarrassing previous post, al...
I note that there was no reply
I don't doubt that at all: I have been here for many years, even in the earlier, original Railroad.net, too. I am certain in your knowledge. And yes, it's that article you had cited. Separate from the author's clear bias...are the facts true, or are things incorrect regarding the potential contract ...
Legitimate, non-snark question for GBN.
Pre-emptive statement: I still maintain contact with some crew people and others that have kinda sorta said the same stuff in that article. Where is the issue with those comments, please?
Allow me to mention that I've been a union member for almost 30 years. I have also had the ability to work with railroad men who were members of unions, too, in a professional capacity. 15 years ago, I have no doubt there would be solidarity. In my current position and location, I am certain that a ...
I'm naturally biased, but LAL is a well-run bunch of guys and this should be very cool. Eager to see how it goes. Good luck to all.
Lots of hits on the same story, so at least someone (Danbury?) put a bit of a blitz out there.
Paul Marsh seems familiar.
I don't know how many old heads are still around, but that chapter of the NRHS was fammmmmmous for disfunction, and not letting other people have any sort of access to their 1:1 scale train toys. And here we are. I'm quite certain most of those people who were roadblocks are long dead.
Does anyone know about a Pullman car that currently rests in Hamburg?
A PM is fine.
