Tuesday May 27 at 5:10pm:<\/strong> I’m on board Amtrak 475. I boarded at Windsor Locks, Connecticut, I’ll change trains at New Haven. I’ve got an overnight stay planned for near Trenton, New Jersey.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, I’ll continue with fellow photographer Pat Yough to Charlotte, North Carolina. On Thursday we’ll be attending the Streamliners<\/a> gathering at the North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer. \u00a0(see:\u00a0http:\/\/www.nctrans.org\/Events\/Streamliners-at-Spencer-(1).aspx<\/a>).<\/p>\n

This promises to be an excellent opportunity to photograph a great variety of restored classic diesels. I’m looking forward to seeing the Alco PA. I’ve written a great deal about this model, yet I’ve never seen one! It will be great to see 611 again.<\/p>\n

And, I’ll finally get to see one of the Pan Am executive F-units! (Seems like when ever these run in New England, I’m either in Ireland, Chicago, or someplace over the hills and far away.)<\/p>\n

I’ll be posting updates! Stay tuned to Tracking the Light for more photos!<\/p>\n
