MARC after dark: Perryville
MARC stands for Maryland Area Regional Commuter. This particular train is on the Penn Line (Amtrak NEC).
Norfolk Southern 62A: The tractor train
Norfolk Southern's 62a (AKA the "tractor train" or the "John Deere train") is a popular target for RR photographers. It carries John Deere, Case, and New Holland equipment, often on a long picturesque string of identical cars, to Baltimore for export. By the time it gets to my neck of the woods (Maryland), it's always night.
The H04
The H04 is Norfolk Southern's Baltimore - Havre de Grace local. It runs on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor as there is no dedicated Norfolk Southern line to the NS Baltimore yard. This local can be seen most anytime of night or day, often on the "Old Line" in Havre de Grace. For a long time it had a locomotive in Norfolk Southern colors on one end and a locomotive in Conrail paint on the other.
