Semaphores and Searchlights on the Southwest Chief
During our visit to the Cumbres & Toltec in early September, we also captured Amtrak's Southwest Chief running by the famous Semaphore Signals of BNSF's Raton and Glorieta Subdivisions. Initially, we wanted to see train #4, the eastbound, but it had a 6-hour 30-minute delay due to engine failure out of Winslow and Gallup. So my friends and I decided to just chase train #3, the westbound, from Wagon Mound to outside of Albuquerque. I hope you enjoy this shorter video of Amtrak's Southwest Chief roaming New Mexico.

Просмотров 47717 часов назад
Originally constructed in 1880, and has been a celebrated tourist railroad since 1971, the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad offers 64 miles of nonstop beautiful scenery throughout Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado. While late summer isn't as popular as autumn, plenty of passengers were still out to experience a step back in time along the San Juan Extension. We spent 6 days in late Augu...

Bahnpark Augsburg - Living History in Bavaria

Plenty of history is still alive in the sizeable town of Augsburg, Germany. On July 21st, 2024, we took an early morning ICE train from Munich to Augsburg to experience as much as possible. The main goal was to explore the Bahnpark Augsburg or the Augsburg Trainpark for English speakers. When I arrived in Augsburg, I was pleasantly surprised to see DGM BR 42 018-2, a 2-8-2 mikado, in the statio...
Severn Valley Railway - Heritage Along the Severn

Located in Worcestershire and Shropshire, England, the Severn Valley Railway is one of the top-quality heritage railways in the United Kingdom. Since 1970, happy passengers have gone up and down the valley, mostly behind a vintage steam locomotive.

However, when Canadian Pacific Kansas City announced they would operate their famed steam locomotive, Canadian Pacific H1b 4-6-4 Hudson #2816 from their home base of Calgary, Alberta, to Mexico City, Mexico, we knew we had to set out to see the "Empress" in action. We set out for the Lo...
Steam Locomotives Working Hard
Просмотров 41 тыс.2 месяца назад
Steam locomotives always face challenges on their journies, most of which are hills and grades. Even just a 1% grade, meaning the track rises one foot for every 100 feet of distance, can still pose a challenge to any locomotive and crew. In most cases, the engineer has to open up the throttle more than usual and that can make quite a show. I've encountered many locomotives in my days of photogr...
