After a long and troubled restoration, the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad finally debuted ex-Chesapeake & Ohio 1309 on their Cumberland to Frostburg excursions in the summer of 2022. Railfans came from far and wide to see the sight of the mighty 2-6-6-2 tackling the mountains of Allegany County, MD. This video was filmed over four days in May, June, and August.

![Philadelphia Transit November 2024
In mid-November 2024, I planned a trip up to Philadelphia, PA to see the historic last voyage of the SS United States as it was scheduled to be towed out to sea to become an artificial reef - only for the move to be cancelled at the last minute. It was too late to get a refund on my hotel room, so I made the best of it and went anyways to tour the city and see the various transit, maritime, and historic attractions in Americas first capitol. While there I got to ride on the PATCO Speedline which crosses the river from New Jersey, and the SEPTA [L] Market-Frankford Line, [G] Girard Avenue Trolley, [B] Broad Street Subway, and [T] Subway/Surface Trolley lines.
