On our annual fishing trip, my Dad and I usually hit some national parks and railfaning spots along the way.
First off, the former Reading station at Valley Forge, now on the NS Reading line.
Next, we headed down to Harpers Ferry, where we caught a couple of trains. Before we had any action (there was a lull in traffic because of a bit of track maintenance.
Also, for some reason, the forum keeps rotating my pictures.

Next, a westbound MARC commuter train appeared in the tunnel.
Following the MARC train, w were expecting an eastbound MARC train, but much to our surprise, the train that rounded the bend turned out to be a CSX coal train.
We went across the street for a bite. While we were in the restaurant, we missed the eastbound MARC train, but I did manage to get a picture of this eastbound that closely followed it.
After we left Harpers Ferry, we headed to Sharpsburg. I got a picture of the former Antiedam station. NS owns the tracks now.
That's all for today!

Why not some Swedish trains?! 
We begin with an Ma, from the 50th pulling an working-train. Ma 962 in Vännäs
And we continue, to a typical Swedish summer, with a lot of rain!
X52 9046 in Sundsvall
Sometimes we have a really nice weather to. Here's SJ Nattåg (SJ Nighttrain) to Gothenburg passing by Umeå. SSRT Rc6 1333
More X52! This time in a sunny Sundsvall.
And we end where we began, in Vännäs. This time an X11 (the purple one) and an X62 (the blue one).
Hope you enjoyed?! If you did, there is more pics on my website under "Bildgalleri" and "Tag" (should be "Tåg", but don't know ho to do it).

Went out without a scanner to test my luck with my new camera and got a UNION PACIFIC SD70M w/ Flared Radiators in Noroflk, VIRGINIA. My first Union Pacific loco and my first BNSF loco... https://www.flickr.com/photos/95731763@N07/
Here's a small Porter-built steamer that ran on a 3/4 mile long railroad through the Adirondacks. It's now housed at the Adirondack Museum along with one of the small passenger cars it pulled.
Also a few pics from North Creek, NY.
This was also hidden behind the S&NC shops, DL&W E8 808 and 807. I had no idea these engines even existed. Does anyone know anything about these engines, where they came from and why they're at North Creek?
