    It was quite an experience at the rail museum in Odense, Denmark, for the very first locomotive to greet me upon entering to be a slice of home, having made the journey a century and a half earlier! IMG_20251223_142843738.png IMG_20251223_115728423.png

    Train cars arrive by truck?

    Yes!
    Not all railways have an interchange. Some like this one are simply to service load industries and will will "cross load" at a multi-modal station (port, truck depot, etc) or simply run the same set of lines between local industries.

    Passing Wassaic last night I thought the Mini-Bomb set laying over looked cool in the fog, so I pulled in to grab a quick photo...

    I got to try out Lumo's train simulator! :D

    I won this in a giveaway as well as free return train tickets for me and my friend to visit the sim and their offices in Newcastle. It was an amazing experience! :)

    P.S: those 80x chairs are unbelievable comfy

    New Desiro Verve looks good, glad they got rid of the ugly front design on the Desiro City units. Battery bi-mode version available too.

    Here's a really cool cab ride video of my childhood tourist line, the Naugatuck Railroad, that was just uploaded to YouTube.


    If you have an interest in railroading in the US Northeast, I can't recommend the River Rail Photo channel enough.

    Never thought I'd see the day where a New Haven F40 would be a thing, yet here we are courtesy of the MBTA's "Heritage" program...


    I honestly thought it was an AI image at first lol.

    No trains in these, but the sunset was really pretty the other night, so I stopped by the Amtrak station in Rhinecliff for a couple of photos...

    Limmattal marshalling yard

    The Limmattal marshalling yard is my main area of operation, where I work as a shunting locomotive driver, driving the shunting locomotives that can be seen in these YouTube videos in real life.

    When we push the freight wagons down the hump, the shunting locomotive is controlled by radio and regulates its own speed.

    Wow, I didn't realize they had hump yards in Switzerland too. Thought it was more of a US thing.

    Yes, these humps have existed in Switzerland for a very long time, and they can also be found in Germany. They also exist in Austria. I think these humps are probably found everywhere in Europe.

    Now I know you're just trying to see how many times you can use humps before someone notices ;-)
