Colors take hold: Fall railfanning in the Tri-State!

On October 21st after a very lengthy hiatus away from the tracks, I got word that B706 was coming up after sitting in Philadelphia for almost a week with an SD70MACe and 2 CN Bongas. I took a spin to Newburgh to shoot it from a different vantage point. It was definitely nice to be back at the tracks again! On October 25th, I got word that I157 had a freshly overhauled flared MACe in the lead and I was able to squeeze it in before work. On October 27th, 2023 I got lucky again to find out B781 was on his way down with a CN SD70M-2 leading with a beautiful P5. I tried something different for that, and I am very happy with the results. While I was there, I heard I159 take the siding to meet B781, and I knew they had a MACe trailing, so I watched them go by as well. On the 28th, I got word that M21827 got two dash 8 addons, and I was able to watch them roll by. On the 29th, I got word that 28X had a very rare CNW patched unit trailing, so I rolled to TOWNLEY with a bunch of friends to observe it pass. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed!

Thanks Lance for allowing use of your good pics!
