Train of Thought…

csx-diesel-locomotive-calvert-koerberI spent most of the morning photographing engines down at the railyard.  My hopes are to build up a photo database of the engines and their numbers to share on the internet. I want engines from the Atlanta and West Point corridor.  The problem is that all these newer engines look the same to me and I can’t tell them apart.  What happened to EMD F7a’s and Sharknosed Baldwin's? All engines unique and easily identifiable.

Interesting Liaisons…

10622802_851120751566949_7348823895013127890_nI’ve become good friends with Laura’s last boyfriend recently.  Remember Laura? The chick I was going out to dinner every week with?  His name is Richard.  I affectionately call him poor Richard. His life is kind of like a soap opera or Shakespearean tragedy these days.   His new girlfriend got pregnant, she is calling the baby peanut, and is saying that Richard is not the father.  Her last partner before Richard is in jail and the timeline just doesn’t add up. Richard is willing to step up to the plate and take care of Jessica and the baby.   Richard and I chatted to almost 4am this morning mainly about women, relationships, and dating. Sometimes, all a friend needs to do is just listen and acknowledge. He is going to have to get a paternity test done when the baby is born to put an end to all the nonsense.  

Favorite Model Railroad Engine…

The Alco RS-3 is my all time favorite engine. This is a 1950’s and 1960’s era engine.
