Named after its first postmaster, John S. Cochran, the small mining camp also served as a stop on the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix Railway. The post office was established on January 3, 1905, and was discontinued on January 15, 1915. At its peak, the town was home to approximately one hundred residents, and housed a general store and a boardinghouse, among other establishments.[1]
Apart from a few building foundations in the town center, and the train tracks that still run by the edge of the now-abandoned town site, Cochran's last and most notable remains are a set of five largely intact beehive coke ovens across the Gila River at Butte, Arizona.
The ovens were used in the early 1900s to make coke, a clean-burning fuel used in blast furnaces to produce iron ore. Coke was made by baking a mixture of different kinds of coal at high temperature without contact with air.
A year and six trips finally made it and it was well worth it! Very scenic 4 whlr trip and very ruff to :) I used my trusty Canon 7d on this trip. There was too much dust, too many rocks and just didn't want to take a chance on ruining my 1D on this trip so the pictures aren't quite as good as they might have been.
Made on my phone with Painnt and MirrorLab apps.
Remember that old ad jingle: "Coke adds life to everything you eat"? Anyway this is a shot of the steet-facing wall of an old building in the town near us, with the nifty Coke ad painted on.

Springtime is breaking out ludicrously early here. 83F degrees today...
A pair of freshly-painted B&P SD50s split the de-activated Baltimore & Ohio CPL signals between Custer City and Lewis Run, Pennsylvania with an empty coke train from Buffalo, New York. The burnt oranges and yellows of late Fall match nicely with the power on this surprisingly sunny day. By the time they reach Johnsonburg, the weather will have taken a turn for the worse.

A westbound Southern Pacific loaded coke train (NSGVC) descends the steep west slope of Tennessee Pass at Pando, Colorado, on August 1, 1996. This is most certainly the highest elevation these two Norfolk Southern locomotives have ever experienced!

Wheeling 618 stretches over the trestle at an area known as “Twilight” as they head east with Monessen coke empties and Connellsvilles.
This would mark my first train using my new D750.
The Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex (German Zeche Zollverein) is a large former industrial site in the city of Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
The first coal mine on the premises was founded in 1847, and mining activities took place from 1851 until December 23, 1986. For decades, starting in the late 1950s, the two parts of the site, Zollverein Coal Mine and Zollverein Coking Plant (erected 1957–1961, closed on June 30, 1993), ranked among the largest of their kinds in Europe. Shaft 12, built in the New Objectivity style, was opened in 1932 and is considered an architectural and technical masterpiece, earning it a reputation as the "most beautiful coal mine in the world".
Because of its architecture and testimony to the development of heavy industry in Europe, the industrial complex was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List on December 14, 2001, and is one of the anchor points of the European Route of Industrial Heritage.

The building of the East Coker Almshouses was started by Archdeacon Helyar in 1640 but because of the Rebellion, (1649 -1660) and the Plague in 1645 they weren't finished till 1660, the same year as the King's Restoration, and a great Festival was held in celebration.
They were founded for eleven women and one man.
The buildings remain Almshouses, and Trustees are appointed who live in the parish. The Charity Commissioners advise and assist when necessary.
We crossed the border into Somerset for this trip to East Coker, a very pretty village and the burial place of T. S. Eliot.
