Lots of Train Action on the NS Pittsburgh Line - Railfanning Newport and Cove - May 26, 2024
May 26, 2024. Time to see how many trains we can see in a few hours. Heading to the NS Pittsburgh Line is the perfect location for such an endeavor.
We headed to Newport, PA in the mid-afternoon of a beautiful Sunday afternoon. It didn't take long for the trains to start rolling by at our favorite Newport spot. After 5 quick trains, we headed east to catch a few more at the venerable Cove, PA railfanning location. After 4 more trains there, we called it a day, satisfied with our catches.
We had quite the variety of freight to enjoy... pretty much the full range of freight on the Pitt Line (well, except for maybe the garbage train... we missed that one). See what you think about our range of catches!
Here come the trains!

May 11, 2024 - National Train Day! We celebrated by heading out to some new territory for us - the CSX Metropolitan Subdivision east of Point-of-Rocks, MD. We made our way to several historic train stations along the line, and even managed to capture a train or two. We will definitely be heading out to some of these places again to get some more trains. But for now, enjoy our exploration! Here ...
Spring 2024 - Catching Locals and Short Lines - Railfanning Fun with CSX and MMID
Переглядів 5621 день тому
LGR kept busy during Spring 2024 with many weekday outings to catch local CSX trains and a great chase of the Maryland Midland UBHF. With the weather now a bit warmer (well, a lot warmer) than in February and March, chasing the local trains around Adams County, PA and Frederick County, MD was even more fun. We got lots of good shots, and we think you'll enjoy what we enjoyed this Spring. Sit ba...

We were able to get out on a nice early Spring Day to catch a few trains in the Harrisburg, PA area. There were a couple of trains with special units on them either in the area or coming into the area, so we made it a point to try to get into position to catch at least one of them. We started off in Cove, moved to Rockville Bridge, and finally ended up in Winding Hill Park, a new spot for us (a...
