Eastbound autoracks crossing the Hoosic River |
Description: |
This bridge previously had a 10 MPH slow order, and I was expecting the train to cross slowly. Instead it came across at track speed - 40 MPH. Pan Am must have worked on the east pier to allow lifting the slow order. |

MOAY hammering uphill with eastbound autorack loads |
Description: |
Taken from the Hansen Road overpass. Schaghticoke Hill is where the former B&M climbed out of the Hudson River valley. I don't know this for a fact, but I surmise that this climb up from the Hudson River might be the eastbound ruling grade on Pan Am district 3. |

MOAY through Johnsonville at sunset |

I wanted to get the old B&M interlocking tower as a prop in my picture, with the train rolling by. It's always chancy shooting into the sun, but I was lucky with both photos I took at Johnsonville. |

MOAY on the reverse-S curve leading into Johnsonville |
Description: |
The train was rolling along at 35-40 MPH at this point, and chasing it was a challenge. I ended up arriving at my intended photo location about 45 seconds before the train. I got this telephoto shot that shows the train rounding the first curve of the reverse S-curve leading into Johnsonville and illuminated with orange light from the setting sun. This ended up being my favorite photo of the day, and it was a surprise bonus. The photo I had been intending to take here is the next one in sequence... |

Slide Fence at Soapstone |
Description: |
Pan Am has several slide fences installed near the bottom of historic rock slides in the Deerfield gorge. Here you can see one on the right, just above the spine flat car. If disturbed, the slide fence trips the signals on either side of this section to red / stop to hopefully prevent a wreck due to boulders on the track. |
