No Christmas trains down here in Georgia. But we do get winter once in a blue moon. Here is a shot for the season.

I missed the CP Christmas train during my visit to BC by a few days.  It would have been nice in the fresh snow.  That is a really well composed photograph, thanks for sharing.

Missed it when it came though this year saw it last year though at Steamtown in Scranton(15 mins from home)
When by on tracks right by house too :/

Another Sunday after Thanksgiving photo.  Check out those mismatched number boards.  Ed pointed that out to me.

Another mismatched set of number boards from last summer in Connecticut.

Thanks Andrew. As Al Gore would say on South Park, it's half B&M, half Guilford, half CP.

Out of school for two weeks, and I'm not sure when the new locomotives will be getting here, so I thought I'd go snag some pictures of the LTEX switcher

Looks just like the old pre-RailAmerica RailTex scheme.

Yeah, it does a lot.
This is the paint the sister (and older) railroad wears; it runs from Belton to Pelzer in the Upstate; I might borrow my grandma's car and try to railfan it this Christmas (we'll be going up there).
