I live in Albany, NY, and most of the "high speed" Amtrak trains we see around here around doing about 70mph. I would love to railfan some Amtrak trains on the NE Corridor at high speed, but am unfamiliar with the area. Ideally, I am looking for a location where I could drive and park easi...

I miss the UHRR's open air car. Riding in the S&NC's enclosed coaches just wasn't the same. There is no better way to experience the Adirondacks than by taking it all in while riding an open car.

Wow, I didn't check the site for a couple days and things heated up! :-D Thank you so much for posting the pic, we can go a long ways with that. The caboose is ex B&O, but NOT ex BR&P. The steps, the 4 windows, the side grab irons, the end ladder, all are different. Looks to me like a Class...

I finally took some things out of storage recently and included in the pile of stuff was a picture of me in my snowsuit standing on the frozen lake with the caboose in the background. I don't have a handy way to scan the actual picture, but if BR&P sends me a PM with his email I will take a phot...

That explains the MEC caboose on the back! Another neat idea. Thanks.

Thanks. That caboose looks more like what was in the postcards.
