Didn’t get a good photo, but the MBTA Laser-Rail Cleaning Train is currently headed to Back Bay and presumably South Station area…

I’d take the EMD.
I don’t have space to store a car, but have a feeling I could work out an arrangement with the local short line railroad to store the EMD on a nearby siding.
Some people prefer diesel…like my son.
This reminded me that I need to go fly my drone over the local rail yard…
One of the nation’s largest railroad unions is calling for a drone ban at rail yards and along main lines, a move that could significantly impact railroad photographers who have recently taken to the sky to capture photos railfan.com/rail-union-c...

I (@pdelahanty.bsky.social) went to this college. Long after the trolley cars stopped running, but the Electrical Engineering building was the old trolley barn. Had large arched windows at the ends where cars entered. Also had many switches decorating the hall…at least when I went there decades ago.
A few more train show photos of HO and N scale… (Some commentary in ALT text.)
Northeast T-Trak had a very nice custom painted N scale MBTA F40PH-3C. I wish someone would release this engine in MBTA’s current livery for N and HO. (Hey @rapidotrains.bsky.social!)

Today is the 200th anniversary of the modern railway!

I often display my LEGO trains at shows, so for this year I created this little plank wagon - it carries a diorama representing the evolution of the railways from Stephenson's Rocket to modern day.
