The sunny winter mornings provides good lighting in Novi Iskar district in Sofia for spotting the Yantra express train. The still good looking 44 070 is accelerating with the tiny IC 2640 after the speed restriction zone at the level crossing at Kumaritsa stop. t would have been good if the cold was accompanied by a little more snow, but still the January sun managed to beautify enough this shot of 44 070 which has been renovated last year in CMZO Prerov (CZ).
Another snow event, another slew of Charger failures. Battered P42DC #59 shows it can still keep trains moving as it accelerates west of Lansing with train #365, the Bluewater.

What accelerates 0-60 in ~2 seconds, has around 1000hp, and has a price starting at over a lofty 1/2 million? A Ferrari SF90, that's what! Get out your checkbooks, gents!
Not all plug-in hybrids are built for efficiency; some are built for speed. The Ferrari SF90 is one such counterexample, combining a twin-turbo V-8 with a trio of electric motors and a 6.5-kWh battery pack to spit out 986 horsepower in standard trim. The SF90XX models, laser-focused on race-track driving, get an extra 30 horsepower—as if they needed it—awarding the SF90 lineup entry in the four-digit power club. The massive power output goes to all four wheels with the front tires driven electrically. Double-X versions also have a stripped-down interior and other changes in the pursuit of all-out lap time. The standard SF90 is now available only as a convertible called the Spider, with a luxurious cabin lined in leather and featuring an unconventional screen-and-control layout. The XX can still be had in Stradale coupe form or as a Spider. Whichever version of the SF90 you fancy in your wild imaginings, know that the powertrain, aerodynamics, and chassis wizardry come together to make one of the best mid-engine sports cars in the world—Ferrari or otherwise.
The standard SF90 Spider comes packed with enough amenities to make it a satisfying pick, especially if you plan to keep to the street more than a race track. If you want to give this Ferrari a more customized appearance, you can select from a host of upholstery choices and paint hues. There are several different wheel designs, and the list of available upgrades includes carbon-fiber components, a titanium exhaust, a digital rearview mirror, and brake calipers in a variety of colors. Which one to buy? There’s no wrong answer.
With the SF90, power comes from a massively powerful V-8 and three electric motors. The twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 generates a mighty 769 horsepower on its own, and the trio of electric motors provides an additional 217 horsepower. In the end, the gas/electric powertrain generates a net output of 986 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. Upgrading to the SF90 XX unlocks 30 more horsepower for a total of 1016 hp and adds a feature Ferrari calls Extra Boost, which temporarily increases power output to help regain speed when exiting a corner. Power is sent to all four wheels, making this the first mid-engine Ferrari with all-wheel drive. An eight-speed automatic transmission oversees the proceedings. Different driving modes allow you to tailor the car's handling to suit your preferences. Use the mode selector to dial up EV Only, Hybrid, Performance, or, last but not least, Qualify—a setting that allows you to fully exploit the car's performance capabilities.
Car and Driver
C-GAGE, a Cessna 441 Conquest II, screaming down runway 33 at Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport in Markham, Ontario. It was returning to its home base at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.
This 40-year-old beauty is operated by Lake Central Airways.
Kicking up clouds of dust, CECX (Cummins Inc.) Tier-4 "Clean Diesel" Demonstrator #1919 accelerates quickly out of Jasonville, Indiana with an INRD train for interchange with CSX at Terre Haute. Yes, it sounds a little like a bus, albeit a bigger, more powerful one. The locomotive runs with the QSK-95, Cummins' 16-cylinder 4400-hp prime mover.
Accelerate! Exhilarate! Demonstrate!
Spent an hour or two Sunday trying to capture a few images of the Terns diving & feeding; the more I watched I started noticing some unexpected acrobatic behavior

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.
After waiting behind a 65T (Empty Limestone from Belmont) 721 accelerates through the CPL's at Hurt, with new replacements waiting on the ground.
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.
Bank Station always struck me as ideal for the concept of a blurred train on the underground: aside from its clean, metallic finish, it’s one of only a few stations in London with curved platforms, which I felt made it perfect for emphasising a sense of perspective as a train came along the tunnel.
The postprocessing workflow for this image was split into two stages: I captured five bracketed exposures early in the morning while the station was empty, and used luminosity masks to achieve a balanced finish for the bright lights and the gritty texture along the platform. I then used separate four-second exposures for the first westbound Central Line train of the morning -- one as it pulled into the platform, and another as it departed -- and blended these together to produce the final image.

Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?
Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?

I've got to follow another direction.
(R.E.M., Accelerate)
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.
"In physics, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. In one dimension, acceleration is the rate at which something speeds up or slows down"
Subway station in Essen, Germany. A little photoshopping to get a nice effect.
Five Geeps - B&M 355-339-324-359 with D&H 7324 in the middle - accelerate past the site of the razed New Milford station on the Lackawanna mainline to Scranton with a southbound Guilford train on 28 November 1986.
One from the collection - PCC car 3223 along with a mate accelerate away from North Station on the Lechmere Line in August of 1962.
Photographer unknown. Digital restoration by yours truly.
With the sun low in the western sky and five BNSF unit throwing up some exhaust as this eastbound Provo-Denver accelerates out of Yarmony, it was time for a nice black and white reflection shot!

CN 2028 north accelerates hard after slowing to a crawl across the level crossing at South Fairbanks, MN. CN 2010 with southbound train U791 has been holding the main line for about thirty minutes in anticipation of the meet. This was the second northbound that U791 had met on its trip to two harbors, with both opposing trains also being powered by a trio of Dash 8's.
Unbeknownst to me, that very morning a set of recently 'straight air' modified AC44C6M units powered the first loaded taconite train into Two Harbors for that locomotive type. This is the series of power that has now replaced the Dash 8's for ore and taconite hauling on the Iron Range, and will eventually replace all of the older road power working in the region. Within three weeks of my visit, the last trio of Dash 8's in ore service were off of the job, and on to an uncertain future.
Despite my previously disclosed preference for EMD's 645 powered locomotives, it was quite a show to hear both of the hoggers on the trains above swipe their throttles, and hear their FDL power bark accordingly.
On its second day of passenger service, MNCW SC-42DM 301 (quietly) accelerates out of Cold Spring station on a northbound run to Poughkeepsie.
26032 accelerates with containers for Coatbridge away from Mossend. I assume during an isolation of the OHL.
Undated, PR Collection.
Another location lost due to accelerated tree growth. In less than a decade the trees on the left have grown from nothing to obscure the arches of the viaduct spanning the River Trent at Drakelow, on the outskirts of Burton upon Trent. Fortunately the arches which traverse the flood plain remain reasonably clear, but by the look of it not for long. On 7th August 2021 DRS Class 37 Nos. 37069 & 37716 approach heading Pathfinder Tours 'Blue Boys Merrymixer' charter, 1Z39 Bescot Up & Down Goods Loop - Crewe.
