Hello All, Adron here writing up my first entry for Dogcaught. Some of you might be familiar from my Transit Sleuth Blog. I’ll be covering a range of topics in writing for Dogcaught; rail trips, rail projects, a bit of news, and hopefully soon some pictures to add soon.
So I’m going to start right off with an upcoming trip to Tacoma to check out Tacoma Rail. The port will be open on Saturday the 15th for the Maritime Festival. Several people will be taking the Amtrak Cascades #1000 north bound and heading back on #1009. This sounds like an interesting trip as I’ll get the lowdown on the railroad that serves the Port of Tacoma. I’m sure I’ll be able to find out some information about that railroad’s interaction with BNSF and Union Pacific also. If anyone will be heading that way this coming weekend, keep an eye peeled and we could share some snack bar conversation.
I will be finishing up my search and purchase of a new digital SLR in the coming weeks. Within the next few weeks I’m hoping to also make another long distance rail trip, with the newly purchased camera it should be a great trip.
So stay tuned, I’ll have more rail ramblings coming to Dogcaught in the near future.
