I can't believe it was 2 years ago for this one westbound at New Brighton, Pa.  DrWayne and CNNutbar were beside me somewhere.

Hi Charlie---It certainly was a great trip.I must have been up the track from where you took your shot,I'm sure glad I didn't spoil your beautiful shot by getting in your scene---here's my picture at the same time and location

ED, that is one of the best looking steam locomotives there ever was. Almost as handsome as the PRR T-1

Ah ha, the carnival train....Those are great pictures. When are you coming back?  Mark the 10th of September on your calendar because this Yank is coming through your area.

Charlie, that shot really shows the sad state of railroading of that time. It's great to see but hard to look at. The railroads were on borrowed time, and unsure of what would come next.

Back in Aug. 2012,Doctor Wayne and I spent a few days with our good friend Charlie railfanning in and around his hometown.Certainly one of the highlights of the trip was catching Nickle Plate Berkshire 765 in her smoking glory but Charlie also treated us to some great railfanning over the next couple of days watching both NS and CSX in continuous action---here's some photos taken on 12/08/2012
