Crossing Goose Lane
Title:  Crossing Goose Lane
Description:  3809 lurks in the undergrorth. I know that it looks like the image isn't straight, but it is. The grade at this point is rather steep and the two loco's were putting out a tremendous amount of racket.

Description:  You can see the serious gradients of the Bedford - Crane route in this long-shot. What a shame the rail is needed elsewhere, this would have made a great tourist line.

Description:  And that's about as far as the train goes. The rear end is up to the limit of track at U St at this point. Despite the seemingly rural setting, we are in the middle of Bedford at this point. Through the trees on the left is a Pizza Hut

Rainy Day in Bedford
Title:  Rainy Day in Bedford
Description:  Bedford Indiana is a fascinating town and must've been really something when the Monon, Milwaukee Road and B&O all called here. It's now more of a rail ghost town with parts that seem like they're locked in a time warp. This is the former Milwaukee Road depot on J Street; the tracks came up in 2010 and were last used by INRD. The famed CSX line through downtown and south to Mitchell remains in place for now even if out of service. The city has actually acquired some former INRD industrial trackage to retain the possiblity of eventual return of rail service, although that seems a long shot right now.
