April 20, 1997 finds UP 2747 has replaced the normal CNW Geeps that tossed cars around the yard. While the power has been swapped, the yard office is still standing and signal tower still spans the tracks in this southward view from the old non-fenced Hampton Ave bridge.
Some may have real butlers, however some just take pictures of butler statues. Oh well, the camera is mine.

Famous rice Plantation of the 19th century, owned by Pierce Butler of Philadelphia. A system of dikes and canals for the cultivation of rice, inspired by the canals in Holland and installed by enslaved laborers, is still in evidence in the old fields, and has been used as a pattern for similar operations in recent years. During a visit here with her husband in 1838-39, Pierce Butler`s wife, the brilliant English actress, Fanny Kemble, wrote her “Journal of a Residence On A Georgia Plantation,” which is said to have influenced England against the Confederacy.

A Timeline Events Night shoot at Barrow Hill Roundhouse near Chesterfield using the D49, Morayshire. It was on its way back to Scotland after visiting the Nene Valley Railway and the North Norfolk Railway. As with a lot of Timeline Events charters, Central Scenes brought the scenes to life with their re-enactments. As Central Scenes are largely based at the Great Central at Loughborough, it would have been a shame not to pose them on Butler Henderson, a Great Central locomotive which has spent some time at Loughborough prior to its boiler certificate expiring.

The plantation was abandoned when the Civil War began. In 1866, Butler's daughter Frances returned with her father to attempt to restore the plantation to its former glory. Unlike her younger sister Sarah who was aligned with her mother, Frances had adopted her father's pro-slavery views and kept a diary like her mother. She published it in 1883, titled Ten Years on a Georgia Plantation (ISBN 1-498-15893-5).[9] It is considered the best account of what it was like for whites who were former plantation owners in Georgia during Reconstruction. In Frances' view, blacks fared better under slavery than freedom. Due to the lack of slave labor, and the postwar depression in the South, plantations were doomed to fail, and the fifth generation of Butlers sold the remains of their lands in 1923.[10]
A description of the plantation from November 1873:
I am monarch of all I survey, which is an island of about 1,600 acres, surrounded by a muddy-looking river, called the romantic-sounding Indian name of the Altamaha. ... Our castle is a neat but not gaudy little frame house, with a piazza in front of it, from which you descend by six steps to a garden, or rather a small grove of orange trees, palmettoes, oleanders, and roses. The first-named are laden with golden fruit, of a quality unsurpassed anywhere in the world, I am bold to say, for size and sweetness. We are hard at work now packing them up for market, and shall have over 100 barrels for sale. The interior of the mansion is in accordance with its modest exterior; a small dining-room, a small drawing-room, a very small office or study, a small hall, a pantry, and two comfortable bedrooms on the ground-floor, and two more comfortable bedrooms over the dining and drawing-rooms. At the rear of the house about twelve yards, is what is called the colony, where are situated the kitchen, servants' sitting-room and bedrooms, the laundry and dairy, and in a corner of the yard is a turkey-house, full of prime Christmas fowl.
Behind the colony is Settlement No. 1, where the coloured people (I believe this is the correct term) reside. It consists of an avenue of orange trees, on each side of which are rows of wooden houses, and at the end of which, facing the avenue, is what was the old hospital, but which is now half of it the church. ... Immediately in front of our garden is the Altamaha river, with the landing-place for the boats, and from which all the water-supply is drawn. On the left of us is the overseer's house, a larger and more imposing edifice, although not so comfortable as ours. On the right are the barns and the threshing mill and engine, which are very nearly finished, and present a magnificent appearance from the river. The old mill, with all the valuable machinery, was burnt down a year ago. The rest of the island consists of rice-fields, of which about 1,000 acres are under cultivation or cultivable, some marsh land covered with thick bamboo and reeds, in which the wild duck do congregate, and some scrubby brushwood; also Settlements Nos. 2 and 3, an old rickety, but very large barn, a ruined mill, a ruined sugar-house.[11]
Current terminus of Perth's Northern Suburbs railway line which was first built in the Mitchell Freeway to Joondalup in 1992. The line was later extended one stop to Currambine in 1993, Clarkson in 2004 and Butler in 2014.
The last stage of the line operates more as a traditional suburban railway with the station in a town centre rather than a high speed commuter rail in the freeway median with the stations distant from activity centres. The WA McGown Government's 'Metronet' will see the line extended another 13.8km to Yanchep with stations at Alkimos and Eglinton with construction starting in 2019

On our last trip to Utah (Sept. 2007) we stopped by Butler Wash and took a few pictures. The light was really not ideal so I haven't posted much of it, this is the first. Compare to my earlier scan of ancient print film (from 1991ish I think). With this photo everything was in shade so it's possible to see further into the cave.
