Ok, yes, this is a video, but I am not sure where else to post this, so I figure I put it here. If it's wrong, please move it. :) With the help of the TRS user Boat, and his ATLS traffic signal set, I have officially made the first controlled intersection crossing for TRS2006. At the moment, I...

Lots of people take pictures, but lots of people also shoot videos. Do you shoot videos of trains? If so, lets see some! Click The Picture To Watch The Video IC 6200 - Westmont, IL CSXT 204 - Chicago, IL IAIS (Iowa Interstate) - Blue Island, IL BNSF / KCSM - Aurora (Eola), IL EMDX...

Allot of the railroad websites I am on have this thread or area called the Photo Of The Week .Basically the best picture gets famed. Well, I was thinking, why not do that here. Have a screen shot of the week. It would be judged every week, you can only submit one picture, and if you win, like...

Before going to the Tactonite plant, I stopped on Kennedy Ave. to catch the IHB daily local which was lead by an HLCX dash-2 (SD40-2) Then I headed for the tactonite plant to get the train gathered. After we gathered it, we had clear greens all the way to the yard! If only that were true...

It's been a while since I have gone foaming, but today made up for that! Here is the first train, in the downtown area. Just a BNSF stack train headed by 4 dash-9's. I chased it down to my house and got another picture of it here. About an hour later, this amazing light power meet passes me...

Where do you think this is?

Thanks to my friend Kevin for the heads up! KCS SD70ACe 4016 leads a CN Dash9-44CWL and a BNSF Dash9 on the CTRail line into Belvideere yard!!!

It is a good thing the mainfest forgot some in cars in South Vermont yard, otherweise this incredibly rare yard to yard local wouldn't have passed through this morning. The engineer of the mainfest had a little to much nog. ;)

Here is CN 5000 leading the daily CN autorack train down south east on the IHB (fake subdivision) through Forrest Avenue street running.

Incredible power waiting on the mainline. Watching at West Chester Road Watching at Burbank St. Power: ELS 500, MRL 313, WAMX 5102, WAMX 5105

Don't ever say Paint shot Pro is not good...

This isn't technically a screen shot, but it is still pretty funny and cool. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=193313

This place is freaky!!! Skeletons appear out of a very thick rising fog along with a car! The rumor is that a steam train had derailed here in the 1800's and that the spirits still live here. Now it isn't like we haven't heard that one before, but this video actually proves after life...
