The Chicago ‘L’ Green Line is the only line that is through routed the loop (the northern and western portions) in this update I present the southern (Ravenswood, East 63rd) Stations or at least those stations that are left, the main line with the two southern branches originally had up to 30 stations but this […]
Well after this update you’ll probably be able to realize that I’m started off Chicago with the south side lines. In this update I present the Red Line’s southern portion that runs in the median of the Dan Ryan Expressway: Cermak-Chinatown–(22 photos) Sox-35th–(18 photos) 47th–(11 photos) Garfield–(15 photos) 63rd–(13 photos) 69th–(6 photos) 79th–(24 photos) 87th–(18 […]
With my hard drive issues still unresolved (I didn’t get a chance to investigate more before I went away and a holiday weekend didn’t seem like a good time to try other places) yesterday I was trying to decide on what pages to upload for the website. After reading an article on CTA Signage and […]
The reason I have had no action on the website in the past week is because I was on an internet-less vacation in Downeast Maine, a trip I’ve done virtually every year of my life, I got back yesterday. It was the usual driving trip with others so no photo stops like I enjoy doing […]
Well in this update I’m proud to say that I am down to just two Northeast Corridor Stations left in New Jersey (which I will admit isn’t saying much since there only 14 stops including dinky, missing Edison and Hamilton) but for a system with expensive fares that make stopovers hard I think I’m doing […]
Well, I had a chance to upload the new stations from my Southbound trip on the Vermonter, I am saving White River Junction (where I stepped off for a few photos) until I can re-visit it and get more of a photo essay. Two of these three stops are on two pages because I also […]
Well this morning I finished my TripLog for riding the Vermonter to Windsor Locks for the Shuttle to the Northeast Regional back into New York City. Here are the two new stations I visited on my journey North on Tuesday on the Maple Leaf to the Adirondack, One gets the reward for the worst AmStation […]
We return to the Windsor Locks Bus stop at 4:20, there is one other passenger waiting to board. At 4:27 our Shuttle Train #475 arrives in push-mode with an ex-Metroliner Cab Car, followed by an Amfleet-I and then the P42. Only the middle non-cab car is open with maybe 12 people on board one other […]
The main reason I wanted to make the loop trip up to Burlington is to ride the Vermonter in full. The friend I am visiting is another railfan and he decides to leave his family and ride back with me. Yesterday we went on a bit of a driving adventure to downtown Burlington so I […]
I track the Adirondack using my technology and notice it has arrived in Albany 25 minutes late. I unfortunately have no idea how long the engine change will actually take so I return to Schenectady station at about 11:17. I don’t want to wander away further since I don’t know how long the engine change […]
