Snow is just starting to fall on November 26th, 1993 as EMD SD45s of the Chicago & North Western and Wisconsin Central rest side by side at the diesel ramp in the CNW yard at Butler, Wisconsin.

One of the remaining few Butler yard jobs crawls west onto the 124th Street Spur for their only remaining customer there - Wallboard who receives centerbeam loads of drywall in the industrial park area.
It's not only pretty rare to catch this in decent daylight, but they almost always shove a load on the head end and pull an empty out on the reverse move, so usually the shot is completely crap of the power move. In the past handful of times I've seen this job move the past couple years, these are the only salvageable shots.

I had a fat quarter pack of some Amy Butler Charm fabric. My inspiration for this quilt was a combination of looking at Kaffe Fassett's nine patch quilts as well as a vintage quilt I saw on ebay. I tried to group the colors in areas on the quilt and have 3 similar quilt blocks next to each other similar to the vintage quilt I had seen.
It's a rather pleasant afternoon at Chicago and Northwestern's Butler yard, as the 4480 rests and the crew has gone to beans and plans out the rest of the afternoon. Standing atop Hampton Avenue bridge and listening to the C&NW's GP7's switch out drags of freight was almost habit forming, oh the sounds of laboring 567's was priceless.

There are notes on the photo.
“These cliff dwellings were built and occupied by the Anasazi Indians approximately 700 years ago. This ruin reflects the full range of living activities: habitation, ceremonial, farming, hunting, storage, and tool making. It contains four kivas, underground chambers where ceremonial activities took place. Three of the kivas are of the round Mesa Verde type most common in this area. The fourth kiva is a square type more commonly found in ruins to the south in Arizona. This indicates that the Anasazi here at Butler Wash were dominated by the Mesa Verde culture to the east and influenced less by the Kayenta culture to the south. Likewise, the ceramics found during stabilization indicate a pure Mesa Verde occupation during the 1200’s AD.
The kivas at this site are located toward the front of the largest cave, while habitation and storage rooms are visible behind them and in various caves and niches around the canyon.
The people who lived here farmed and hunted. Corn, beans, and squash were grown in the deep alluvial soils of the broad canyon to the south. A cycle of deep arroyo cutting may have made agriculture impossible by lowering the ground water level and making irrigation unfeasible. The current deep wash is a result of an erosion cycle which started in the 1890’s.
Whatever the reason – drought, overuse of natural resources, or waring neighbors – this site was abandoned before 1300 AD.” (US Bureau of Land Management)
Butler Wash Ruins
Comb Ridge

September 2022
Butler Wash Ruin is a cliff dwelling that was built and occupied by the Ancestral Puebloans, sometimes known as Anasazi, in about 1200 AD. Parts of the site has been stabilized and reconstructed, but most of it remains as it was found in the 1800s. There are habitation, storage and ceremonial structures, including four kivas. This ruin is located in a side canyon of Butler Wash, on the east side of Comb Ridge. (BLM)

It's a beautiful spring afternoon at the east end of Chicago and Northwestern's Butler yard, as a Soo Line SD40-2 waits on it's outbound crew to take it south to Proviso yard outside of Chicago.
In the distance, a C&NW GP7 works away the hours at the east end of the lengthy yard.

The trio is seen crossing a river I could never hope to pronounce let alone spell but the IC black looks pretty good with all the green in this wide angle view.
originally this quilt was going to be a "turning twenty" quilt. but it's impossible to pick just 20 amy butler prints, they are all so lovely. plus, i knew i wanted it for my king size bed. (mind you, this is only my second quilt! i must have been insane when i decided to tackle this project!) so i added an extra row or two... and ta da! my quilt is finished & just as beautiful as i imagined. every time i look at it i smile! it's so bright & cheery how could you go wrong?
Heading east on the Norfolk Southern Chicago line, the paint is really starting to peel on the nose. The NYC style signals are a pair of only a handful remaining on the line in Indiana .
Its a warm Summer night as an NYS&W West Shore job has just ran around their train at Butler Yard with an SD33-ECO leader. Upon receiving their Form D, they will run east on the main back towards Little Ferry. A piece of track equipment on one of the yard tracks serves as a reminder that Butler is one of the main MOW bases on the Susquehanna.
Butler County Courthouse in Greenville, Alabama was built in 1904 in the Romaneque Revival style. The building faces west and is a two story red colored brick, stone and concrete structure.

An entry for my own 5Kfigbarf contest? On my own account? Yes. But not to worry, it's my girlfriend Sami's, not mine.
"I'm just the humble butler.
And what exactly is it you do here?
I buttle, sir."
She was interested in making an entry but obviously lacked the resources I have, so we took some time to work on these with my parts. I gave a little advice on what exists and helped her search Bricklink for things and then took the picture, but she came up with the theme and characters and almost all of the parts ideas herself, so this is really her entry. Leave a comment to let her know how she did!

The Union Church, also known as Union Congregational Church, is a historic United Church of Christ church building located at 106 North Butler Avenue in Avon Park, Florida.
Construction began in 1890 and the first services were held in the not-quite-completed structure on September 11, 1892. The church was built on land donated by the founder of Avon Park, Oliver Martin Crosby, and his wife. Later the original crenellated bell tower was replaced with a steeple.
In 1989, the church was listed as in A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture, published by the University of Florida Press."
Union Church is an active congregation. The church property extends through to Jim Rodgers Avenue. Bill Breylinger has been the senior pastor for over 25 years.

Languishing on bricks outside Butlers' other yard at Bentinck on 13th January 2025, I think it's safe to say X695YUG has definitely turned its last wheel for a while...
The Big Boy is taking it easy out of Butler, WI, beginning another leg of its Midwestern Tour.
Rolling through Wauwatosa, I found myself amongst good company documenting the world's largest steam locomotive as it crossed over Underwood Creek and Watertown Plank Rd. in route to Chicagoland and a weekend stay at West Chicago.

Last night Bernard Butler took to the stage at Mackintosh Queen’s Cross and gave a stunning masterclass in how to entertain with just a guitar and a microphone.
