I want everyone to know that I am still here, still active in my research and modeling of the Georgetown Branch.

				<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I find things that make me scratch my head, like this recent listing on eBay. At first I thought &#8211; oooh, a new image of a covered hopper in Georgetown. But almost immediately realized that this was just a rip off of one of the images I scanned from Mr. Mumford&#8217;s collection that was &#8230; <a href="http://gbblog.sluggyjunx.com/2026/02/18/caveat-emptor" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Caveat Emptor</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[This magnificent slide came up on eBay a week or so ago and although it was mislabeled as Philadelphia, PA, I immediately recognized it as the new yard in Georgetown, DC. There are a few things that make this image special, first and foremost is the caboose itself. This is no regular B&#38;O I-5 caboose &#8230; <a href="http://gbblog.sluggyjunx.com/2025/07/07/bo-caboose-c2603-i-10-in-georgetown-ca-1967" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">B&#38;O Caboose C2603 I-10 in Georgetown, ca 1967</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Photo taken April 1, 1982 B&#38;O 6662, a GP9 built by EMD as C&#38;O 6113 in September, 1956. Not much left of the yard at this point, the writing was on the wall.]]></description>
