Where in the world?

Grab a rock, have a seat, and talk about the real world of trains.

Where in the world?

Unread postby shicoe30 » Wed May 25, 2011 2:32 pm

If I didn't have the WSOR logo and my location listed, it could be pretty hard to guess my location from the trains I see and photograph around here. CN, CP, UP, and WSOR have trackage, but power comes from all over. Some days it looks like Ontario, others it looks like Tenessee or the Carolinas, and some days most of the North American continent seems to converge here (If not in the flesh, then as a leased unit with little or no change to original markings) The only real rarity is BNSF. Anywho, just looking for an excuse to post some of my stuff and see what y'all think dontcha know. All photos are from my trainwatching in and around a place known as Duplainville since February of this year.

Man, is it just me or do those spartan cab GEs look sharp as hell in the CN scheme?

Thanks everyone...and yes -SCLJim, those are some fine looking GE's, bought from the UP, ex-CNW stock, and -Chessie....Chicagoland? pshh...try the Greater Milwaukee Metropolitan Area :P...We don't identify with them flatlanders round here !*roll-laugh*! And -styckx I didn't get up at 4:30 that mornin' for nothing! I was actually trying to catch an INRD coal train that never showed up, but I saw 22 others in exchange....fair trade off I guess
