few more on: http://beenaround.050109.com/index.php?/category/31 (mind you, as I said, wife took them with her then new SLR, her previous camera being 110 film ;) )

Sadly, the only Live steam I have been around, was the RGS #41, at Knott's (hated it when engineers would bleed off steam, right next to the Haunted Shack, my home one summer).
 
Does anyone here keep a locomotive list? I recently started one. My favorite locos I have seen are CSXT 7529, the first C40-8 I have seen, and NS 2535, a standard cab SD70 that I saw leading once.

I have too many recorded... Everything I have on film or camera is recorded, in a 700 page notebook, it's about 1/4 way full...
 
I kept a record of all the CSX/Amtrak/Foreign Power in 2014, like a total of like 5,000 units, most are copies of the same units.

like Amtrak train 65 DC-NPN morning run(former 67) has Amtrak 145 P42, and turns for 66 NPN-DC evening run, it will have the same power as train 65.
