I Still Love Trains

I Still Love Trains, like you didn't know that already huh? I miss the life and the people I had the pleasure of working with. Over the last weekend I was lucky enough to get reconnected with someone I last saw and worked with 20 years ago. Thanks to the joys of Facebook, Petar (whom I worked with when we were both Train Drivers Assistants) contacted me. He also got a driver that he still works with to send a link to his photo collection of the driver, old and new from Euston Station Depot. I spent hours on Monday afternoon going through the photographs and remembering the people I worked with. It brought back some great memories for me and I truly appreciated it.
The photograph above was taken down by the Sultan Sea here in Riverside County. This was a train that probably originated at the docks in Los Angeles and is heading to the midwest or east coast. It actually went past me a lot quicker than I was expecting and I thought I'd missed it. Then I checked the display on my camera and I'd framed it perfectly, lucky but perfectly. So this one I dedicate to all the great people I had the pleasure of working with on the railway back in England. They were some good years and it was the people that made them that way.
