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.

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.

Butler Wash Ruins
Comb Ridge
Utah
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)

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)
A little bit of EMD love at Butler Yard tonight as the "OR" train (ORPIK) sits on main 2 waiting for a recrew and MWNBU has just finished yarding their train before working back 7 track to the ramp.

Our nephew was married this past weekend on a unique venue called Butler Farm in rural Tennessee. Here is one of several photos I took of the venue.
Happy truck Thursday!
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.

Ulysses, Butler County Nebraska, population 196. The bank opened in 1885 and this building was built in 1901.
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.

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!
