new guy here

hey all, whats up? first time on this board. Im an avid railfan(since as long as i can remember) and an amature photographer. guess you could say self-taught, but with alot of help from my dad. id like to show off some of my “work” but i dont really know if that many people really want to see it. i like to think im pretty alright at it, and getting better all the time. i am a member on railpictures.net, and have a couple on there, two pictures of the day and one pic of the week, but alot that they wouldnt take that i thought were pretty good(one that torques me off the most has 5 trains but i dont know of a good place to post alot of good size pics. i have a lot of Kansas City, Peoria and Galesburg.

just wondering what everyone though.

Welcome to the forum. We would enjoy seeing your pictures.

Welcome to the forum Todd, I think you would be hard pressed to find someone on this forum that wouldn’t like to see train pix. Try rrpicturearchives.net it’s free and easy to use. I just opened an account a week ago (see my Cajon pix thread). Need any help just let me know.

Welcome. Where are you from?

Welcome Todd, from your “handle” I would guess you are a SOO fan from Wisconsin. I used to live in Wausau and am also an old SOO fan from way back in the 1970’s when I frequented Stevens Point and Fon duLac. Good to have you with us!

I need to get my eyes checked![:0] I was reading his name as * scoob*6058-as in Scooby Do.[:I]

nope, a soo fan in the middle of IL. peoria, IL. never hardly get to see it. get alot of CN/IC/WC though.

yeah , ill try that site, chad. thanks

Would love to see Peoria/Bloomington etc. photos. I get there once in a while but not for very long so hardly ever get to railfan there much. I have long tried to get photos of the Peoria Rocket on RI in the Peoria area but most of them were taken either at the Peoria station or in the Chicago area coming/going.

Hmmm “Railfan Named Soo”…sounds like a title of a good song…

Welcome!

Stop in the diner for a “whatever you want, we will fix it”…
