Steve Sloan's Trains : Albany and Eastern Railroad Company (AERC)

According to Wikipedia (in 2019):

The Albany and Eastern Railroad (reporting mark AERC) was created when the BNSF Railway spun off its Sweet Home Branch Line in May 1998. In November 2000, the AERC was combined with the Willamette Valley Railway but maintained the AERC name. It operates about 49 miles (79 km) of track and is based in Lebanon, Oregon. The line runs from Albany to Mill City. At the Albany end of the line it connects to Union Pacific and BNSF lines.

NOTE: If anything is my "life's work" it's my train photos. — If you scan an analog photo of mine, or if you share a digital photo I took that does not have my photo credit, add something like "Photo by Steve Sloan" directly onto the image. It's not enough to say "Photo by Steve Sloan" in the text caption. People download photos off the Internet/Social Media platform and whatever is in the text does not stick to the photo. Then, they get reshared and that data is lost. I deserve credit for my work.

You may not use my photos for profit and/or as part of, or to sell, a product or service without my consent.

Special Thanks!

To all the great folks who have helped me out with information for these Web pages!
