Six cows following each other through the morning fog to the other end of their meadow (were they get fed), as the sun rises above their heads.
This shot needs no explanation. I saw this family at the North Cave Wetlands in East Yorkshire
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE A COMMENT IT’S MUCH APPRECIATED AND SO MUCH MORE INTRESTING THAN JUST GIVING A FAVE
CFE 3316 preparing to stop and flag a crossing west of Convoy. This portion of the main to Fort Wayne is under 10 restriction for deactivated crossings. In between trains tie gangs do their yearly project, hence the deactivated crossings.

I've not able to see my lovely swans for a while because I have been too busy moving and the weather has been awful, so here is a swan shot from my archive.

Best viewed large.
Running almost 3 hours early here, 40013, with 57004, 37604, 37609, & 37603 in tow run slowly past Bailrigg (south of Lancaster) preparing for a stop in Oubeck loops with 0Z45, the 15.15 Longtown - Crewe on Thurs 21st April 2022.
With some gloomy skies in the background, we have a Colas convoy with 66850 at the head of the train, with DIT 70817 70805 70802 70810 and 70816 all working on 0O70 13:05 Westbury to Eastleigh Yard via Chandlers Ford, seen here approaching Eastleigh.
The ships supplied Murmansk in Russia (I hope the Russians remember that, but I doubt it)....a journey which was described as "The worst journey in the world"....

Als die Bedrohung für den Handel durch Piraten auf der Elbe zunahm, zögerte der Senat zunächst zu reagieren. Daraufhin nahm die Commerz-Deputation die Sache selbst in die Hand. Sie lässt 1665 „Convoygeld“ von jedem Schiff erheben, dass den Hamburger Hafen anlief und baute davon „Konvoischiffe„. Diese Begleitschiffe eskortierten in Folge alle Handelsschiffe auf der Elbe, die zum sicheren Hamburger Hafen fuhren wollten. Die Commerz_deputation wurde 1867 in "Handelskammer Hamburg" umbenannt.
In the 17th century, piracy became a serious threat to the trade conducted by the Hanseatic City of Hamburg. In 1665, the merchants of Hamburg took matters into their own hands. They gave an undertaking that every arriving and departing ship would pay a"convoy duty". It was used to build "convoy ships". These escort ships then escorted all merchant ships on the Elbe that wanted to sail to the safe port of Hamburg. The Commerz-deputation was renamed "Hamburg Chamber of Commerce" in 1867.
After getting soaked on New Years Day we ventured out on the Bank Holiday Monday too, blue skies and sunshine all day long.
Feels good to be back home again. There’s an hour back up on the interstate so here is a picture of trucks.

Wind turbine blades stop for a break at the Ranch Hand, our local truckstop. Transporting these huge blades is a big job on our two-lane roads.

A very grimy DRS 68033 drags 37038,37401 and GA 90011 Through Ipswich working OZ11 Norwich Crown point to Crewe.Thanks to John Day for the heads up. I just popped in to reserve a seat!
At the end of the day, the buses participating at Imberbus convoyed their way out of the Salisbury Plains, seen here from the top of Sack Hill.
Leading the convoy is RTW467 & at the rear, is EP1.
D213 'Andania' heads south at Balshaw Lane Jn with the early running 0Z45 Longtown to Crewe on April 21 2022. The convoy was made up of 57004, 37604, 37609 & 37603, the loco's having being sold by Direct Rail Services.
The 57 is for LSL whilst the 'Growlers' are for HNRC. Although running 100 minutes early here, north of Lancaster the convoy was running much ealier that I thought I didn't have time to get anywhere else. As a result of being held several times between Lancaster and Preston, it arrived just as the sun was getting too low for this location.
Always good to see a convoy on the main line these days!
