October 2026: Chris Healy takes us trackside exploring great photo locations along Metro-North Railroad’s Upper Harlem Line. Kevin EuDaly brings us the scoop on more than 30 diesel locomotives decorated for America’s semiquincentennial that gathered at the North Carolina Transportation Museum’s Spencer Shops. And, Bill Monaghan gets us close to the action as a trolley operated in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, for the first time since 1938 during the Williams Grove Historical Steam Engine Association Steam Show. All this and more in the October 2026 issue of Railpace Newsmagazine!
