Per request here are some of my train shots... I travel all over the northeastern US to shoot trains... as well as I am a staff photographer (and brakeman) for a Scenic Railroad in MA. I hope you all enjoy these...

Nice work on them all, I can see right now I can learn a lot from you. Thanks for posting.

Now that sounds like a fun job. I've grown up with trains, and love seeing train pictures :)

These are all terrific, Never really liked photos of trains until I saw these.

Guys thanks a ton! I really enjoy getting out there and shooting these...

Greg if you have any questions dont hesitate to ask! If I dont know the answer I can try and find out... I am EXTREMELY lucky to have some good railroad teachers... the forum I admin on has probably 5 or so of the better railroad photographers on it... it makes for some great learning experience had by all!

These are outstanding!!! I would love to get a shot of the bridge that crosses the Hudson (it runs parallel to the 90 thruway... maybe it's 87 in that section). I'm afraid someone might freak out if I tried, with everyone worried about terrorism.

I have one but its from the eastern side... and at bridge level...I will try and get you one... I havent been down in that area shooting in a while... probably about time...
