When we were on our family trip in Romania, trainspotting was a nice start to the day before hiking trips. Our aim was usually the morning train 5472 from Bicaz to Piatra Neamț, often hauled by a class 60 locomotive. Its journey along the valley of Bistrița took around an hour which made the train easily chasable.

The picture shows 60-1017 of CFR Călători with the train 5472 which had just departed from the passenger stop Vaduri and is now on the last stretch towards Piatra Neamț.

The Feather River Express is arriving at the Rock Creek Power Dam. It will enter a tunnel here and curve south with the canyon, then proceed through the classic Honeymoon Tunnels on it's way up the North Fork Feather River Canyon. The Rock Creek Power Dam re-diverts water into penstocks that will then be discharged through turbines near Rock Creek to generate power for PG&E. The discharge here is required to sustain the flow of the North Fork Feather River.

SNCF's 63404 still in its original livery awaits its fate in the Sotteville Graveyard.

63404's History:

NB: Big thanks as usual to Christophe Hespel for his trainsso.fr database information🙏

63404 was part of a small Sub-Class of only 23 BB63400s.

They are exactly the same design as the BB63500s, (built by Brissonneau & Lotz as Bo-Bo, multi-use diesels - shunting, trip works & some passenger work).

The only difference is they were not owned outright by SNCF. Instead, they were originally financed by Eurofina, before SNCF purchased them.

63404 was delivered to SNCF on 12/12/1959 and withdrawn from Chalindrey after 51 years of service on 22/02/2011.

This photo on Ian's and my visit, is the only known sighting at the Graveyard.

So presumably, it went to 1 of the 3 authorised scrapyards soon afterwards.

Those scrapyards are listed in the Notes section of this album

Brooklyn, NY

An R160 set on the L line ascends the elevated structure toward Broadway Junction station. Originally known as Manhattan Junction, then Eastern Parkway following a rebuild, it served as a connection point for elevated trains originating from the Canarsie, Pitkin, Jamaica, and Fulton St lines, sorting these into the Broadway and Fulton St trunks heading east towards Manhattan. Today only a fraction of this system exists, and the remnants of now-removed trackways (I believe these are the remnant of the Fulton line and a connection from the Canarsie to Fulton lines) are visible in the middle frame.

Making good time on its 1pm trip out of Staunton, Norfolk and Western 611 elegantly glides out of the Blue Ridge Tunnel after a long climb up Afton Mountain. Though not exactly in home territory on this former C&O mainline, the J still looks and feels the part through these mountainous Virginia vistas.

As the throttle gets ripped to the roof, a very star-spangled Norfolk and Western 611 deadheads to Fisherville, Virginia after a long Saturday of Staunton-based rail excursions. There's few sounds in railroading that excite the senses more than a J at speed.

Redfern travel sent out this old beast for the Tuxford school run. I plotted up for a photo and this woman was in front holding them up a bit. I like it with her in shot. It was 33 degs so she was getting some air!
