What drifts in across the fields

is not evening, no, nor mist

or smoke, though in its translucency

it seems a scrim as if some drama

has, without our knowing, begun

and as it falls over farms and trees

and then the river that demarcates

the city and at last the homes

where we live, we feel its weight,

a preternatural darkness – a shroud

that wraps the towers, spires, steeples,

obscures the skyline we are often

comforted by, a silence, too, come

down over empty streets, no one

about, and still, a stillness far

into the distance unbroken

by any dog or siren or penitential

cry for mercy: we know something

comes, invisible, with a hunger

we might stop, but maybe not

for months or years or maybe

not at all.

Not many folks were out on this day. Just me and my step-father, and this northbound Central Vermont train near south of Willimantic, CT, shaking the ice off the trees after an overnight freezing rain storm.

Southbound Central Vermont #444 with no less than six units, typical for this era, makes a pick up at Windsor, VT.

This Renault 4 CV from 1953 belongs to a friend. What is not visible from the outside is that it has been tuned with a Dauphine Gordini engine, which has considerably more power than the original. Otherwise, however, it is largely in its original condition.

Chateau Village is a closed community sim with theme set on a fictional Island nearby India. It is fully inspired by a blend of antic temples ruins and the colonial homes of the British residents. Island carries a history in itself, painted through the ruins of water gardens that stood there for centuries before the residents, populated by the numerous birds and various flowers. Ones that stand our are surely the everyone's favorite Peacocks and the always stunning Lotus flower.

except the Water gardens, villagers have their luxury lives settled in the calm of the island, away from the busy continent yet close enough to have everything on their doorstep, through the busy market and its Aviary. Every Sunday the boats arrive with the market vendors, offering foods, spices, crafts and numerous arts for the residents to enjoy while never leaving the heated calm of their home island.

If one listens well, you can hear the busy market vendors talking, you can hear the winds breaking against the cliffs and the little birds singing to the morning sun.

It is best advised that people wondering about turn on their ambient sounds and sounds because there is a lot of ambient music playing in the background for the full immersion into the sim and its story.

 

Enjoy your stay in our Island

A first generation GP9 leading 4 Alcos of similar vintage southbound on the CV near Duxbury, Vt on Sept 24, 1983. You could say wrong leader or crummy mixed lashup, and I had those thoughts at the time but you take what you get on a 3 day weekend and the scenery is just classic Vermont to me.
