Train Stuff

Trains

Trains have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. They are loud and dirty, but are also an integral part of our economy. Probably at least one part of the car you drive (if not the whole thing) moved by rail at one point or another.


Chessie


Chessie System was and still is my favorite railroad. Even though Chessie is all but gone from the hundreds of locomotives she slumbered on, she will forever be remembered as one of the most well-known corporate mascots. Long live Chessie!



Here are some rail pages I maintain. Click on the highlighted text to go to them.
