These are the blogs of a man going where others have gone before. Trains are watched, cities photographed, and the past bravely explored as much as the future. Day trips, overnighters, vacations, and family visits are all opportunities for everything from trains to cityscapes to landscapes to ..... Other railroad videos and slideshows are on my YouTube Channel at gcm100x. If you would like to contribute to this blog, do so at http://paypal.me/Gregory643.

A Chance Encounter
Not all train videos are planned. I was on my way home from Pinehurst, NC when I saw the Aberdeen, Carolina Western head west. I did not have a camera handy so I let it past. I am not chasing the ACW very often. However, I see it occassionally betweeen Aberdeen and Pinhurst. The next day, I made sure that I had my cameras with me. I was heading home along the tracks. I saw the headlight in the distance so I pulled into the first business, grabbed my video camera, and ran to trackside. I did catch the train as it went by. It was CSX units pulling the ACW freight, out of Aberdeen.
