Hold your nose, its the garbage train!
Title:  Hold your nose, its the garbage train!
Description:  Hold your noses! Leaving behind a pungent, eye-watering cloud of gases from rotting food, used pampers, newspapers fouled with dog urine, and God knows what else, The New York City Garbage Train ambles north towards more pristine places upstate where it will appropriately dump its load of urban unpleansantness, as is the fashion of the times. And who knows? Perhaps one of The Sopranos 'sleeps' behind the growling EMDs tonight...

The Glory and Wonder of Commuter Rail Power
Title:  The Glory and Wonder of Commuter Rail Power
Description:  Shining magnificently in the midday sun at its appointed service track bumper post, M-N P32AC-DM #205 revels in the attention of its awe-struck guests at the 2004 Harmon Shops Open House, a fantastic railfan event loved and adored by children and adults alike all across the face of this tiny, happy planet we call Earth, this tiny blue-green orb hanging in the infinite vastness of the system we call the Milky Way Galaxy. Was there ever a finer locomotive? Was there ever a finer moment in railroading? Surely this powerhouse of sophisticated railroad technology stands above all others gracing the rails today or anytime ever before. Yes, this was a truly noble moment in the annals of railfanning. A spectacle that outdoes any other railroad image ever captured. Stupefying. Magnificent. Unequivocal. Yes, THIS is railfanning, folks!!! Who among you could ever produce an image as important as this? I, EMD Jerry, stand above you all, a towering, intimidating, unparalleled luminary among the hordes of mediocre wanna-be railroad photographers! Never forget that it was I, EMD Jerry, who bravely approached and photographed Metro-North #205 and delivered to you this amazing image which you see before you now!!!

When can I take it for a test drive?  (Harmon Shops Open House)
Title:  When can I take it for a test drive? (Harmon Shops Open House)
Description:  The awe-inspiring Metro-North Genesis #205 dwarfs an awe-struck EMD Jerry at the Harmon Shops Open House. Many railfans were completely overwhelmed by the fantastic sights that afternoon and had to be carried away on stretchers. EMD Jerry was able to maitain composure, but his attempt to climb the ladder, enter the cab, and steal this locomotive was thwarted by the watchful plainclothes security men who were lurking in the shadows. Here he is casing the situation while waiting to make his move.

Did you ever get the feeling that something is missing?
Title:  Did you ever get the feeling that something is missing?
Description:  Don't you just hate track photos? I certainly do. But, I mean, what else was I gonna do with myself? I'd been standing here like three hours. Fortunately Q404 appeared not long after I took this stupid photo. Well, nice leaves, anyway. Mountains and such. Eddie Bauer and Sasquatch must be out there somewhere. Maybe they're even hanging out together. Maybe they're doing things - maybe even weird, unspeakable things! Who knows? But let's not go there!
