With no 524 local overnight to service the Oelwein Sub, the 534 Waterloo switcher came out today and did the work. The crew brought the train out on Tuesday for 524 but just continued where they left off. The crew worked the plant at Fairbank and then made an Oelwein turn to spot and pull Transco. This is a somewhat rare event to see in daylight, as normally this is done by 524 overnight. Here the crew has the outbound cars from Transco and passes the CGW F-unit on display. Keep hearing the F40s are heading out of Iowa, but they continue to work back and forth on this job.
The recently-repainted Rock Island E6 630 was sitting pretty alongside resident Chicago Great Western FP7 116A in the once-hotbed town of Oelwein.
It was a fun night spent being eaten alive by swarms of mosquitoes.
This may look like a pancake, but I'm pretty sure this squirrel was contemplating something naughty! Most likely planning on raiding the bird feeder as soon as I look the other way.
Heroes’ Temple, designed by László Vágó, seats 186 people. It was built in 1931 and is used for religious services.
The Heroes’ Synagogue commemorates the 10.000 Hungarian Jewish soldiers who earned glory on the battlefields of World War I and died heroes’ deaths.
Wat Phra Si Sanphet was situated on the premises of the royal palace which had been established in the reign of King Ramathibodi I (King U - Thong). In 1448 King Boroma - Tri-Loka-Nat dedicated the site of the palace to the construction of the temple. The important edifices in this temple are the three main stupas containing the ashes of King Boroma, King Boroma-Rachathirat and King Ramathibodi II.
It was a royal temple of the kingdom of Ayuthaya, used for such important royal ceremonies as swearing allegiance and it also served as the royal family's private chapel and the place where the royal family's ashes were preserved. No monks resided here though they were occasionally invited for particular rites.
Wat Phra Si Sanphet was the holiest temple on the site of the old Royal Palace in Thailand's ancient capital of Ayutthaya until the city was completely destroyed by the Burmese in 1767. It was the grandest and most beautiful temple in the capital and it served as a model for Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok. Wikipedia
I’m still wondering why I didn’t have a roll of Kodachrome film in my Canon FTb on this cloudy bright 07-26-1971 day, however the black and white film in that camera created a fine image with a little decades later Photoshopping! Chicago Great Western 116A one of only two passenger FP7’s owned by the Great Weedy leads the covered wagon consist eastbound in St. Paul, Minnesota. Renumbered to CNW 217 she was retired in 1993 and donated to the Hub City Heritage Corporation at Oelwein, Iowa. She forlornly sits stuffed and mounted today in Oelwein for a restoration which will probably never come. 1196
Rock Island E6 630 was waiting its time in the light as it sat next to Chicago Great Western FP7A 116A.
A nice photo session to benefit the Oelwein museum was a great way to spend a Saturday night amongst the corn.
Late afternoon, with storms in the distance - view from Bryce Point, Bryce Canyon National Park, UT.
Chicago Great Western FP7A 116-A was sitting pretty at the old CGW outpost of Oelwein in 1995.
After many years of being subjected to the harsh Iowa weather, the 116A was looking very ragged and in 2014 it was repainted; but into the simpler dip job it wore before the CNW took over.

Rock Island E6 #630 poses along side Chicago Great Western FP7 #116A at Oelwein, IA as twilight encroaches the town. The pair of Rock Island cab locos were on-loan to visit during the annual Railroad Days. Both locos were lit up with a generator, neither one of them were running during the event.

This image is quintessentially Oelwein. My first trip to the Hub City was in the early 1990s on the way back from doing something in Wisconsin. Back then the former CGW locomotive shops were closing and we caught a "hospital train" of various geeps running south out of town.
Within a couple years later, my second trip to Oelwein was during Heritage Days just after the 116A got a stunning coat of Chinese Red and Maroon with the Corn Belt styling. Back then all the shop buildings stood and I recall exploring them with Dad [the CNW's M&C Master Lock keys were pretty easy to come by]. The last time that I was in Oelwein, the shops were just weeks from being torn down. This time, we secured a release from the UP to take one last trip through the shops. They were destroyed 7 or so years ago.
The demise of the shops really parallels how I see the 116A. The first time I saw it, it looked like a functional motor. As the years went by, the paint rapidly degraded [due to a lack of a clear coat application] and it received a bland roll-over paint job a couple years back. Today, it's showing very visible signs of structural degradation on the body and just looks a far cry from how I first remember it.
Situado a 275 metros sobre el suelo, con una superficie de 350 m², puede soportar la presencia simultánea de alrededor de 400 personas.
El acceso se hace obligatoriamente por un ascensor (la escalera está prohibida al público a partir del segundo piso) y se llega a un espacio cerrado lleno de mapas de orientación. Al subir algunas escaleras, el visitante llega a una plataforma exterior, a veces denominada (erróneamente) «cuarto piso».
En este piso podemos percibir una reconstitución del tipo «Museo Grévin» que muestra a Gustave Eiffel recibiendo a Thomas Edison, esto refuerza la idea según la cual Gustave Eiffel habría utilizado el lugar como oficina. Aunque la realidad histórica es diferente. En realidad, el lugar había sido ocupado primero por el laboratorio meteorológico, antes de que fuera utilizado por Gustave Ferrié en los años 1910 para sus experimentos de telegrafía sin hilo (TSH).
Encima de la torre, fue instalada una antena de teledifusión en 1957, la cual luego sería completada en 1959 para cubrir cerca de 10 millones de hogares mediante la difusión de televisión analógica terrestre. El 17 de enero de 2005, el dispositivo fue completado, cuando la emisora francesa de televisión digital, elevó a 116 el número de antenas de teledifusión y radiodifusión. El añadido de esta 116ª antena hizo crecer la altura de la torre de 324 a 325 metros.
