Notice to FACEBOOK® users...Effective 1/25/12 the Railhead Photography FACEBOOK® page has been disabled.  I found that I was not keeping posts up to date.  I am sorry for any inconvenience this action may have caused.  I will be moving the photos I had posted there to the Railhead Photo Gallery on this site over the next few weeks.


Locomotive catalog updates were completed on 11/28 & 29/11.  All of the locomotive catalog pages have been updated and now include all of the 'new photos' through about 11/1/11.  I have also added links from the unit number to the specific photo for those shots that are in my photo gallery.  Scattered throughout the catalog pages you'll find unit/rolling stock road numbers that are blue and underlined, click the unit number and you should be taken to the photo gallery page for that unit.  You will need to use the back function to return to the catalog page that you were on.  Please note that I currently catalog over 12,500 locomotive photos and bunches of rolling stock photos and have only a few photos on the photo gallery page...I doubt that I will ever have all of them thumbnailed with a link to a larger picture.


Some new photos were added to the photo gallery on 10/18/11,  I also did some clean-up on the photo gallery page so that now all links actually work correctly.   Check them out


The seven volumes that make up the Trackside 2009 Series are ready for you to check out as well as the six volumes of the Trackside 2010 series.   Click here for a shortcut to the Videos on DVD page to see the descriptions of these new videos and all of the other ones too.


New product now available from Railhead Photography.  Check out the N scale pulpwood loads for gondolas.  The whole story is here.


The locomotive print catalog pages contained on this website are in a 'table' format.  This format does increase the download time for each of the catalog segments which has led me to break the catalog into even more sections to speed loading.  Even with the smaller sections it does take a while for these pages to load.  However, I believe that the table formats are easier to read.  To improve viewing, please maximize each page.  By setting your page view to the widest possible, you will minimize the number of line wraps encountered.  You can jump to the catalog gateway by clicking here.

You will note that there are rolling stock photos in the photo gallery along with the locomotives.  I have started the process of cataloging hundreds of rolling stock photos both revenue and non-revenue.  To check them out, click here.  The rolling stock photo catalog page was updated on 11/29/11.

I've also added a non-revenue rolling stock catalog.  You'll find cabooses, ballast hoppers, storage box cars and all sorts of other stuff on this page.

New link to an AAR reporting marks 'dictionary'.  This page is presented by the Piedmont & Western Railroad Club located in Valdese, North Carolina.  It's arguably the best reporting marks listing that I've been able to find on the net.  Use this link or the link on the revenue rolling stock catalog page.  Thanks to the club for permission to link to that list.
