Monday Update From Roseville

No pictures are available today, but the film camera was busy nonetheless. That picture I posted below, with the Genset & the 844 - the old and the new? It's a good thing I'm a strict follower of HAPT photo-taking protocol, which states "Take what you can, when you can. It may be gone when you come back" Alas, the Genset was gone, tapped for local weekday duty....


... to be replaced by the Western Pacific Heritage unit. Apparently the Heritage unit will accompany the 844 this week up to Oroville and the world of the Western Pacific.



Steam and GPS - isn't change wonderful!


Here's the Spring 844 schedule


...and here's more!


The gears are also starting to turn for the 2009 HAPTapalooza, tentatively scheduled for August 6-12.

Wheelman ... out.

Aw shucks! You had to lose a nearly dime-a-dozen yard goat (in CA anyway) for a one-of-a-kind WP heritage unit? The luck is holding up well I'd say!

Welcome to HAPT's Railfan Adventures


The Hebron Any Power Team is actually just a bunch of fun-loving rail enthusiasts who enjoy photographing and chasing all things railroad with friends. This bunch of guys cover a lot of ground for a group based way up "nawth" in Maine. We also have friends scattered around the country who contribute well to our hobby. In fact, our name is derived from our actual friends in the Worcester Foreign Power Team, except that Hebron hasn't seen a train since the 1950's so we'll settle for "any power".

Welcome and enjoy the eclectic collections of the contributors. Maine idealizes "life in the slow lane" so we present this blog as an effort to share our less time sensitive findings and to add to our hobby.
