Posted by Dave on Sun Jul 5 18:23:30 2009, in response to Re: PHOTOS : Gen-Set Invasion @ Oak Point + Some Old Warriors, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Sun Jul 5 11:47:30 2009. There are 4 - 5 trains a day that cross 75 feet from my back door. Problem is, they are not on a schedule and I can't get to the crossing in time, once I hear the ead engine bell ringing. I can try shooting pics from my office window but there's trees that partially block the view this time of year.On weekends the Tarantula comes by, usually pulled by a GP-7 but every now and then by a puffer-belly! **The Grapevine Vintage Railroad travels along the historic Cotton Belt Route between Grapevine and the Fort Worth Stockyards. The Railroad is serviced by two vintage locomotives - "Puffy" the 1896 steam locomotive, which is the oldest continuously operating steam engine in the South, and a 1953 GP-7 diesel locomotive. Passengers enjoy riding in authentic 1920s and 1930s Victorian-style coaches as they take a step back in time and experience train travel as it was in the glory days of the expanding west.** https://www.grapevinetexasusa.com/ThingsToDo/GrapevineVintageRailroad/tabid/267/Default.aspx |
