47293 passes Milton Keynes Central with a southbound tanker train on 5 June 1993. The tank wagons are very distinctive and I'm sure somebody can identify the working. 47293 was another 47 that only ever carried two numbers. New as D1995 in April 1966 it was withdrawn from BS in January 1999 and cut up at EMR Kingsbury in July 2007.
I thought I got there too late. My feet were placed squarely on the blacktop parking lot at one of my favorite soul places, a space I have been to recently but haven’t been to, ever, to simply be and write.
Sam and I used to come here during his home school day to collect wood and explore and we still come here so he can ride on the tire swing and we can throw rocks into the river. We have explored the area fully and know it pretty well from those moments, but I wanted to come to know this place intimately by connecting to it quietly, with my body connected to its body, my soul connected mindfully to its center.
The autumn-colored leaves I would kick away from the foot path were long gone, returned to the Earth. Their crunchy selves had surrendered completely and I had missed that process.
Then I stepped into a spot off the path, by a small stream to sit and write and I realized I hadn’t missed the process at all. I stepped onto what looked like Earth and instead, I was stepping into a pile of leaves that was choosing to merge with the soil. My choice to take a moment or two or sixty to be in a space of quiet soulfulness was graciously allowing me to become a part of the process, too.
I discovered how deeply they had piled themselves up, creating a soft sofa and pillows just for me so that I could sit upon them and experience them, their luscious returning-to-dirt-scent. They seemed to giggle as I sat down with my paper and pink notepaper and trusty black mirado warrior and started to move it, contentedly, along the page.
In that moment it was as if the leaves hugged me, welcoming my reality to rise up and meet my longing, leftover from months ago when I was in a time of profound sadness, a time when I wasn’t able to settle into their crackly, crisp newly fallen selves. Instead, I got to sit upon their softened not quite moist selves.
It was then that I heard the unsurrendered leaves, the ones still on the trees that pushed against one another, applauding my return. It is like those leaves held on, bravely, past their amber-golden time to their withered crusty selves so I could hear my message.
Divinity says, “Be with me. Trust. Follow my lead. Don’t try so hard, but do know the strategy that works best, beloved one.”
I felt an exclamation point rise up as two trucks rumbled past and the wind blew and suddenly I was aware that my stomach was telling me of its hunger.
The exclamation was part celebration as I heard the words “Beloved one!” and knew Divinity meant me.
I sat, still, for a moment, just being with the leaves and the trees and the water. I heard a frog singing her song. I smiled in gratitude.
I wrote:
Sometimes surrender comes quickly and sometimes the holding on, like the crusty withered leaves held on, is the surrender. It is in the unknowing of whether or not its right or wrong and being ok with it no matter which way the judgment or comparison lands that holds the power of truth.
Today, do I go deeper? I asked. Do I go further on the path, closer to the larger parts of the river, or did I get what I was supposed to get here, on my leaves-turning-to-dirt sofa.
I smelled the leaves below me, supporting me. I heard the wind play my ears like a drum and the grass and leaves pirouetting and doing a grande jete or many grande jetes. I watched a plane use the air as a mattress. A man with a grey covered hood covering his head and speckled deck shoes covering his feet walked silently behind my surrendered leaf throne.
SUVs and pick up trucks a stone’s throw away rumbled past, separated by steel from all this wonder right here, oh so close.
Did any of the drivers or passengers capture the bright pink of my shirt out of the corner of their eye, strikingly out of context in this place I sat, deeply entrenched in awe?
It doesn’t matter whether they do or do not, but I prayed for each of them anyway.
I realized then that although I hadn’t gone deeper on the path, I had gone deeper.
My heart was swollen with joy.
I wasn’t too late. I was right on time.

This helicopter, registered EW-123AO, is a PZL-Swidnik Mi-2 Hoplite formerly operated by the DOSAAF and is pictured on the ramp at Lipki, Minsk.
Lipki Aerodrome is a civil/military airport serving the city of Minsk in the Republic of Belarus. It began operating in 1980 during the Soviet era. On 21st August 2002 the government transferred control of the aerodrome from the Defence Ministry of Belarus to the Ministry of Emergency Situations. On 24 July 2017 an updated runway and training center were commissioned. The Minsk Aeroclub DOSAAF was transferred to the aerodrome from Borovaya and the airfield became capable of receiving small civil aircraft. As a result, the Republican Aviation Search and Rescue Center of the Ministry of Emergency Situations was relocated to this site. Lipki is also the site of an athletic base, a heated hangar for aircraft, helicopter pads, and an automatic weather station.

I was at Dyer waiting for a late running Q642 to get through town when I heard him call a "clear" at the Dyer diamonds, the crossing of the CN ex EJ&E mains. I started to get set up when a CN work train came rolling through at track speed, running right in front of the northbound CSX freight. Q642 went in the big hole and managed to stop in time as the yellow CN train kept rolling east. So, Q642's conductor had to walk the train to make sure the hazmat cars were all OK. Unfortunately, the train had Route 30 blocked for over half an hour at 600pm, not good. Back on the move, SD70MAC 4827 finally comes into the interlocking.

At York rail station is Volvo B7TL Plaxton President Y709 HRN which has been brought in from Harrogate to run raceday 197 services on behalf of York Pullman. During late 2013 and early 2014 this bus became part of the Transdev York fleet for a while at a time when decisions were being made about the 844 service - the initial plan had been for this and 2708 to join the York fleet permanently to mainly work the 844 service but also be a spare Unibus if required, but plans changed and 2708 never came this way whilst 2709 left later in 2014 after the 844 route was dropped for reasons some viewers will be aware of if they've followed my photos for a few years. It's back here today on old ground at York rail station.
