(W. L. Hammond photo, dated August 7, 1976. Scan of a slide from my collection.)
The Bay Area Rapid Transit District's Power & Way Department operated this hi-rail-equipped 1974 GMC/Howe 300-GPM pumper for emergencies on its electrified rail lines in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am unsure of its status, although it has presumably been retired by now.
Zondag 14 februari was huisvriend Bart Chabot om 13:00 uur te gast bij Paagman. Naar aanleiding van zijn laatste dichtbundel Bananenrepubliek, maar ook in het kader van de reizende theatervoorstelling Chez Brood waarvan hij het script geschreven heeft, gaf hij een lezing.

After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring.
He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.
~Will Rogers 1879-1935

Fierce'r Larger On Black ~ if you dare !
thanks everyone for your nice comments and invites, Bart is getting a little more relaxed when Kachina is nearby.
....I think Bart scared the Magic Donkey - he was in and out of Explore!
please do check out Trish's painting (foto below) - what a great job she did capturing his impression of a fierce panther!
UPDATE - we found a very nice home for Bart, YAY!!!
Quand Jean Bart se fait un lifting....
Une bien belle réussite que la restauration de notre Corsaire Dunkerquois, bravo aux artistes qui ont su redonné de l'éclat à notre valeureux marin.Il est sur que sa cantate reprise en choeur par les milliers de carnavaleux résonnera encore plus fort dans sa cité...

I have been having a photographic love affair with the BART stations, but mostly images shot with my iPhone and posted on Instagram. Are you using Instagram? If you are, find me there: pketron
This is Bart, the hopefully-soon-to-be-ours cat! He is just 9 weeks old so we will have to wait a few weeks before he can move in with us. He was born with a small defect on the thorax which makes him a bit slower and a not so good jumper. But we wanted to have an indoor cat so this makes him perfect for us.
Oh, and by the way, we will rename him when he moves here. I like The Simpsons, but we have all agreed that Bart is not a very good name for a cat :) We are not sure what to name him though, so if you got any good suggestion please let me know! :)
(The foot is there for scale purposes only! ^^)
UPDATE: We named him Moltas :)
this particular bit of graffiti appeared this past week in the tunnel entrance, as you head east towards the underground Oakland stations. there's a similar one that i'm pretty sure was done by the same artist at the other end of the tunnel, showing a corporate blob with a big bag of money. i've tried several times to capture that one, but it's in a shady spot. this one however, is in full afternoon sun! i really love them both -- does anyone know anything more about these?
Bart Starr, one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of football. Led the Green Bay Packers to 5 NFL titles.
The new cars, now coming on line, include a Hearing Loop among their features! This allows those with telecoils in their hearing aids to access improved hearing options on the noisy cars. I tried one the other evening. I think they still have wrinkles to work out. I didn't notice a big difference. The track noise is pretty brutal for many portions of the map. I hope I get another chance to try it soon.
If you wear hearing aids, be SURE to ask your provider/audiologist to ACTIVATE YOUR TELECOIL, so that when you encounter an opportunity like this--many public spaces--you can take advantage of greatly improved hearing.
