BNSF H-SPOLAU accelerates out of the siding at Plains, MT, after meeting a westbound intermodal on a cold, foggy December morning.
Experienced on the Vancouver SkyTrain, British Columbia
SkyTrain is the longest rapid train system in Canada and the longest fully automated driverless system in the world so far.
218 472-9 fährt mit ihrer Ersatz RE21 Garnitur aus dem Bahnhof Oker aus. Pläne für ein ESTW im Nordharz, welches Oker, Goslar und Vienenburg ersetzen würde liegen bereits in den Schubladen der Planer...
218 472-9 accelerates her RE21 train out of the Oker station. In the next years a ESTW will bring an end to the old mechanical signal glory in the north harz region

Found a great corner on a motorway here in Berlin, this ridge over the dip made for an interesting red line LE. It many attempts to get it right and is often the most challenging in respects to photography, as it's pure chance and of course one can never get the time back. Luckily enough in cities there is seldom any lack of traffic.
Much appreciation to my followers both new and old, not far from the big 500; also I appreciate all comments, faves, criticisms and feedback and so as always, thank you! :)
From the Stirrups and Smiles Rodeo. It's a very fast moving sport. I don't know how they stay on the horse. Maybe some velcro between the saddle on the rider?

31128 Charybdis accelerates towards Wichnor Junction heading 5V42 Wetmore Sidings to Southall conveying stock for a filming assignment, 47270 was bringing up the rear.
Having tried this shot earlier in the year, but only managing to bag a DMU, I returned hoping to snap the lunchtime cement and with fingers crossed the sun would play ball.
As luck would have it it did and seen glinting in the winter sunlight Freightliner Shed 66620 accelerates away from Chinley East Junction on the climb to Cowburn Tunnel with the 11.49 Tunstead - West Thurrock (6L89).
In the near foreground is Malcoff Farm, and the hill in shadow about 3 miles distant is Eccles Pike rising to about 360m - itself not a bad vantage point for trains along the Goyt Valley.

RUPO accelerates to 25 after clearing the yard limits of Leeds Jct. B&M 327 leads LTEX 6528 and MEC 310 and about 50 cars.
Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?
Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?
No time to question the choices I make
I've got to follow another direction.

Subway station in Essen, Germany. A little photoshopping to get a nice effect.
An A-B pair of ex-Milwaukee Road E9s accelerate the North Coast Hiawatha past the Kopper's Coke plant in St. Paul on December 16, 1973 - the first year I had a drivers license. The rails to the right and the old Midway Stadium in the background are long gone, but the rails the train is on remain as does the overpass I shot this from.
50007 and 50049 growl towards Beattock Summit at Harthope with Pathfinder’s “Grampian Highlander”, 1Z72 0605 Taunton-Aberdeen. The train was running some 25 minutes early at this point having failed to make the planned recess in Beattock loop and I only just reached this spot in time.

The Hubble constant — the rate at which the Universe is expanding — is one of the fundamental quantities describing our Universe. A group of astronomers from the H0LiCOW collaboration, led by Sherry Suyu, Max Planck professor at the Technical University Munich (TUM) and the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching, Germany, used the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and other telescopes in space and on the ground to observe five galaxies in order to arrive at an independent measurement of the Hubble constant.
This research was presented in a series of papers to appear in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
The new measurement is completely independent of — but in excellent agreement with — other measurements of the Hubble constant in the local Universe that used Cepheid variable stars and supernovae as points of reference [heic1611].
However, the value measured by Suyu and her team, as well as those measured using Cepheids and supernovae, are different from the measurement made by the ESA Planck satellite. But there is an important distinction — Planck measured the Hubble constant for the early Universe by observing the cosmic microwave background.

I used an intervalometer to capture a photo every second during the launch. At this point Orion had just risen its own length in just over 3 seconds, and with 2.5 million pounds of thrust, it was accelerating fast!
