I have accepted a Conductor position in Clinton, Iowa, but the training will be Des Moines for a month. I was informed that the railroad will pay for a motel for 3 out of 4 weeks during my stay in Des Moines. Does the railroad pick the motel for you or do I pick it out myself?

FYI, I have the entire set from 2000 up for sale! The recent issue from May was fascinating with the Transcon article!

All of CSX's GP30's have been rebuilt into road slugs.

I dug up some old footage from my archives of Metra trains with the C&NW cars from 1995! I also caught the last F40PH in RTA blue!

I have a Canon Rebel XTi and would like more advice on how to take night shots. What setting should I use? manual or auto? How do I adjust the shutter speed? Take a look through your camera's manual to find all the controls. I'm sure the shutter speed can be changed by spinning a dial on the grip. ...

I have Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 Volume 1 & 2. The description is a little misleading. It is true that the first part is a cab ride from South Amboy all the way to Penn Station. The misleading part is, the cab ride isn't 4877, it's 4879. Listen closely to the 2nd engineer's radio transmission....

I avoid eBay like the plague, but I've always had great luck with KEH. The 6-month warranty they provide on all their stuff is very reassuring and is actually better than the 90-day warranty found on some refurbished gear. I've also had them do repair work on my cameras and they do a nice job. Why ...
