Comment:
In a "before and after" product shot, the crew of grain train 390 on the left has their train back together and air tested, and is waiting for the Tec train and both Amtraks to pass before they head to Bensenville. Ethanol train 632 on the right has just got a re-crew and will leave in a couple of hours. Both trains were parked here yesterday.
Bins near the Domain, where live performances have been taking place. To be honest, given the volume of people, I'm surprised there isn't a lot more mess.

Living Lands and Waters (LLW), an Illinois-based non-profit dedicated to cleaning up America’s rivers, spent nearly two weeks hosting volunteer clean-up days on the Delaware River. Held Aug. 20 through Sept. 2, the clean-up effort was sponsored in part by Philadelphia Water and resulted in the removal over 35,000 pounds of trash. Here, volunteers from Philadelphia Water and the Delaware River Basin Commission join the LLW crew for a Sept. 1 clean-up just north of the Betsy Ross Bridge that netted 26 large bags of recyclable bottles and 17 30-gallon bags of non-recyclable trash.

Please mark your calendars for our cleanup of Lynch Cover Run Stream cleanup on June 27, 2015 from 9 a - 2 pm in conjunction with the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay's Annual Project Clean Stream! We will be cleaning up Lynch Cover Run which runs next to the North Point Government Center before flowing into Bear Creek. Volunteers of all ages and abilities are needed! Help us remove the trash before it flows into Bear Creek, the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean! Every piece of trash removed is a small victory to be celebrated!
Registration will open at 7 am and run until 9 am at the Boulevard Diner across the street (1660 Merritt Boulevard, Dundalk) where breakfast will generously be provide for volunteers by the Boulevard Diner! Late registrants can sign up at the tent onsite next to the stream.
We run our cleanups as a family event with plenty of ways for volunteers to participate. We welcome every type of person of every ability level to contribute and assist with the cleanup. Though it is true we will need people to dig out shopping carts and haul trash to the dumpsters, we need people to run water, food, tools, and trash bags (both empty and full) to individuals in the creek. People to sort recyclables from the debris removed. People will be needed to help at registration, setup food and snacks as well as many other less strenuous activities. We are also authorized to sign-off on Community Service and Service Learning Hours for students. The more people we have, the easier the work will be for everyone. We will provide lunch and snacks as well as gloves. A limited number of tools are available for sign-out, but suggest bringing your own if you have them.
Community Service and Service Learning Hours are available as well!
We are also looking for photographer/videographer volunteers to help us document our cleanup as well

Some folks from my missional community and I went out to Bastrop to help a family with the cleanup of the location where their house once stood.
It is a heart-wrenchingly beautiful thing to see a family home resurrected from the remains, and we are looking forward to assisting them with this more.
This will be an ongoing project, more from this soon.
