Some people just have that touch to make beauty out of anything. This was taken in Lisbon. A very nice use of recycling. HSoS!

On September 23, 1969, N&W 1940-1908 and 1936 (U30B-U28B-U30B) curve through tiny Camden, Missouri, on Santa Fe's Marceline Subdivision en route to Kansas City with autos and autoparts. The N&W and Santa Fe had a paired-track arrangement through here. I don't know what the fellows are doing down by the crossing, but it certainly isn't safe. Photo by Joe McMillan.
A Santa Fe train departs Kansas City with a large block of auto parts on the head end, probably for the Oklahoma City Assembly Plant where SUV's were built at the time. The plant was closed in 2006.

Soo Line northbound freight leaves "dump track" off of C&NW trackage rights to former Milwaukee Road at 1513 behind two SD40-2 (MILW155-MILW196.) Tower A20 used to stand beyond those flowers on the left.
A trio of brand-new Soo Line EMD SD60 locomotives quickly roll west with train 203 at Lewiston, between Portage and Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, on the afternoon of September 27, 1987.
Soo Line train 203, an auto parts train to the Twin Cities also referred to as the Ford Fast, is westbound at Duplainville, Wisconsin, led by Milwaukee Road EMD SD40-2 No. 174, on April 12, 1987.
Union Pacific’s LANPV emerges from a deep cut in the Stockton sand bar in Utah’s Tooele Valley the morning of Oct. 23, 1994. In the background are the rolling hills of South Mountain of the Stansbury Range.
A frosty former BN EMD SD60M locomotive pulls westbound NS 181, a dedicated autoparts train, through the Rock Creek sag during a cold December 6, 2015 morning.
Throwing it back to February 2012, a pair of NS SD60s interrupt a quiet Sunday morning in the village of Continental as they blast west with 145 and its consist of hot autoparts, racks and some general freight thrown in.
An eastbound auto parts train zips past the "witches hat" turret at the Sturtevant, Wis. depot on May 26, 1979. While giving every indication of being a prosperous railroad with a long train, freshly painted power, and good track, looks can be deceiving. Like a Halloween ghost, half the bankrupt Milwaukee Road system will vanish the following year.
Revisited this scene from a capture in early spring. Different season, composition, and aspect ratio. Meanderings in a wrecking yard.
Throwback Thursday....
A matched set of Conrail SD40-2's lead an eastbound autoparts train under the RT 615 bridge at Mentor.
A pair of ex-Conrail units lead an autoparts train straight north (west) through Bellevue on the snowy morning of Dec. 23, 2017.

Radical reworking of mass marked cars for racing purposes began in the 1930¨s.The Pierson Brothers modified 1934 Ford is thequintessential early "hot rod".The low,re-shaped and aggresive turret was revolutionary at the time,as was the red,white and blue "candy"paint job,created by experimenting with translucent pain over a base color,When it was first raced in 1949 it set a class record of 153 mph.Construction was sponsered by autoparts maker Edelbrock and in April 1950 this automobile graced the cover of the then-new magazine HotRod-
A cover photograph looking for a railroad radio communication story. Norfolk Southern train #255 parts the ground fog near Clymers, IN on its westward journey to KC to deliver vehicle parts to Ford Motor in Kansas City at down 10/13/21. Line is NS Illinois Division's Lafayette District.
A local consisting of all Autoparts flatcars is seen in Louisville, KY. I saw this flying over the diamond by Oak St and beat them here.
A rare visitor to the Niagara region , BNSF 6727 leads the way for an all autoparts 523. This was a rarity in many ways, as this was the first BNSF leader on the Grimsby since 2014, the first foreign leader since 2018, and the first 523 since 2020. To add to that, we haven't seen a all autoparts train since 2006, NS 327/8, which had BNSF leaders from time to time. It's really amazing how history repeats sometimes.
The Chevrolet Camaro is a "pony car" made in North America by the Chevrolet Motor Division of General Motors. It was introduced on 26 September 1966 as a 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The car shared the platform and major components with the Pontiac Firebird, also introduced in 1967. Four distinct generations of the car were produced before production ended in 2002. A new Camaro is expected to roll off assembly lines in January 2009.[1]

MTB inner tube or bicycle tube valve inner cores. Normally not seen, because it’s hidden within the valves outer enclosure. For size reference, one valve core has a total length of approx. 19 mm. At a repair shop, the take them out with a special tool, to flatten the bicycle tires fast, and then screw them in again.
The valve cores were arranged on metallized bubble foil envelopes, normally used for transport and storage of ESD sensitive parts or PCB’s.
Taken at approx 22:00 local time on Monday, so still enougt time before the dead line.
Feel free to leave comments and constructive feedback. No P1/C1 or seen in group and similar.
Taken while hanging around at an AutoZone store, waiting for my truck to cool down enough to start. Turns out that a $60 sensor was the culprit for my problem, but I have to wait a week for it to ship.
Nothing worse than having your engine just stop running while you are driving down country roads that have no shoulder to pull off on. I made it home (10 miles away), only to have it die just as I turned into the driveway! Oh, lawdy!!!
btw...Kudos to AutoZone for their free diagnostic service. They plug their device into your vehicle computer to find out exactly what's wrong with your vehicle. Invaluable to a non-mechanic, like myself!!
