An example of my usual success when railfanning, the CN's bridge at 20 Mile Creek on their Grimsby subdivision:

Another missing bridge. CNJ's DY draw in Bayonne NJ.[attachment=3894]
Not a great shot, but at least the bridge is still there. Winslow, NJ June 1992

Another SD50 at Winslow, NJ April 1997

Bruce
Bruce, that is a perfect shot, but then again, most of yours are. I like the effect of the lighting with the brown grass.
Here is one from June of 1977.
Charlie
Super photo Charlie! Gotta love those Alco's!!

For some reason,Alco's always remind me of the steam era Misngth Here's a shot of some Canadian alcos

I really miss them. They were not as bad as the railroads thought they were. I knew a mechanic that worked at Conway and he said the big Centurys were the easiest to work on the prime movers. Given time and an electrical partner they could have easily survived.

Hi Charlie---some of them have survived---here's one at Steamtown (Scranton PA)---Both the CN and CP rostered a large fleet of Montreal Locomotive Works built Alcos and I was fortunate to see and hear them running through Hamilton

Next summer I will be making a trip to see and photograph that railroad. I think Western New York and Pennsyvania also has a 6 axle century on their roster.
