Another from the archives and the caption I wrote way back then:
An afternoon yard job has MP15 1552 sandwiched between two covered hoppers as it picks its way gingerly up the APU spur to spot two cars at Alaska Mill and Feed. The move is configured this way account the customer has two spurs, one of which is a facing point move for feed cars and one which is a trailing point move for fertilizer cars, and there is no runaround on this lead. This is as close to street running as you can find on the ARR and it is an interesting little operation.

"ORBIS 001" from Dublin Airport is seen here on final approach for runway 22 at London Stansted Airport where the aircraft will stay for the next six days, before continuing onto Qatar and Vietnam. The aircraft is one of a kind, and has only taken over the role of the Flying Eye Hospital from N220AU recently after six years of work to configure the airframe for the role at Victorville, California. Originally delivered in April 1973 to Trans International Airlines as N101TV, making the aircraft 44 years old. Line number 096 was sold to FedEx in April 1984 as N301FE and converted to an MD-10 in 2001. It was donated to Orbis in March 2010.

Peggys Point Lighthouse (also known as Peggy's Cove Lighthouse) is in Peggys Cove and is an iconic Canadian image. It is one of the busiest tourist attractions in Nova Scotia and is a prime attraction on the Lighthouse Trail scenic drive. The lighthouse marks the eastern entrance of St. Margarets Bay and is officially known as the Peggys Point Lighthouse.
Peggys Cove is a classic red-and-white lighthouse still operated by the Canadian Coast Guard. The light station is situated on an extensive granite outcrop at Peggys Point, immediately south of the village and its cove. This lighthouse is one of the most-photographed structures in Atlantic Canada and one of the most recognizable lighthouses in the world.
Visitors may explore the granite outcrop on Peggys Point around the lighthouse; despite numerous signs warning of unpredictable surf (including one on a bronze plaque on the lighthouse itself), several visitors each year are swept off the rocks by waves, sometimes drowning.
Peggys Cove is 43 kilometers (26 miles) southwest of downtown Halifax and comprises one of the numerous small fishing communities located around the perimeter of the Chebucto Peninsula. The community is named after the cove of the same name, a name also shared with Peggy's Point, immediately to the east of the cove. The village marks the eastern point of St. Margaret's Bay.(Wikipedia)

Swissair Flight 111
Swissair Flight 111 (SR111, SWR111) was a Swissair McDonnell Douglas MD-11 on a scheduled airline flight from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, United States to Cointrin International Airport in Geneva, Switzerland. This flight was also a codeshare flight with Delta Air Lines.
On Wednesday, 2 September 1998, the aircraft used for the flight, registered HB-IWF, crashed into the Atlantic Ocean southwest of Halifax International Airport at the entrance to St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia. The crash site was 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from shore, roughly equidistant from the tiny fishing and tourist communities of Peggys Cove and Bayswater. All 229 people on board died—the highest death toll of any aviation accident involving a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 and the second-highest of any air disaster to occur in Canada, after Arrow Air Flight 1285. This is one of only two hull losses of the passenger configured MD-11, along with China Airlines Flight 642.
The initial search and rescue response, crash recovery operation, and resulting investigation by the Government of Canada took over four years and cost CAD 57 million (at that time approximately US$38 million). The Transportation Safety Board of Canada's (TSB) official report of their investigation stated that flammable material used in the aircraft's structure allowed a fire to spread beyond the control of the crew, resulting in a loss of control and the crash of the aircraft.
Swissair Flight 111 was known as the "UN shuttle" due to its popularity with United Nations officials; the flight often carried business executives, scientists, and researchers
Aircraft
The aircraft, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11, serial number 48448 registered HB-IWF, was manufactured in 1991 and Swissair was its only operator. It bore the title of Vaud, in honor of the Swiss canton of the same name. The airframe had a total of 36,041 hours. The three engines were Pratt & Whitney 4462s. The cabin was configured with 241 seats (12 six-abreast first-, 49 seven-abreast business-, and 180 nine-abreast economy-class). First- and business-class seats were equipped with an in seat in-flight entertainment system, installed at some point after initial entry into service. (Wikipedia)

Basically a big rolling battery, Jump Trucks are a common sight at any spaceport, where they can jumpstart spacecraft through their usually time consuming power-up sequences.
Most spaceports are required by law to have Jump Trucks on hand in case of emergency evacuation scenarios, generating expensive storage and maintenance costs. The 'ports offset this by hiring the trucks out to the owners of modern Smart Buildings. When configured correctly, a giving your Smart Building a jump results in an efficient, quasi-legal data purge.

The Ford Escort Mk.I was unveiled ay the 1967 Brussels Motor Show, as a replacement for the Ford Anglia. Escort production commenced at Halewood towards the end of 1967 with left hand drive cars starting in September 1968 at Genk. Initially the continental Escorts differed slightly from the UK built ones under the skin. The front suspension and steering gear were differently configured and the brakes were fitted with dual hydraulic circuits; also the wheels fitted on the Genk-built Escorts had wider rims. At the beginning of 1970, continental European production transferred to a new plant on the edge of Saarlouis, West Germany. The car went on to become Britain's best selling automobile, ousting the BMC 1100-1300 and Fords own Cortina. The Escort had conventional rear-wheel drive and a four-speed manual gearbox, or three-speed automatic transmission. The suspension consisted of MacPherson strut front suspension and a simple live axle mounted on leaf springs. The Escort was the first small Ford to use rack-and-pinion steering. The Mark I featured contemporary styling cues in tune with its time: a subtle Detroit-inspired "Coke bottle" waistline and the "dog bone" shaped front grille Initially, the Escort was sold as a two-door saloon (with circular front headlights and rubber flooring on the "De Luxe" model). The "Super" model featured rectangular headlights, carpets, a cigar lighter and a water temperature gauge. A two-door estate was introduced at the end of March 1968

BNSF's Provo-Denver manifest is typically configured in a 3x2 setup. However, this instance of the train is significantly shorter than most, so BNSF apparently decided to run it with five units all on the point. The train tied down in the siding at Rocky about six hours ago, and it is waiting for a crew to come out of Denver and take it the rest of the way into town.

The Rutan Model 54 Quickie is a lightweight single-seat taildragger aircraft of composite construction, configured with tandem wings.
The Quickie was primarily designed by Burt Rutan as a low-powered, highly efficient kit-plane. Its tandem wing design has one anhedral forward wing and one slightly larger dihedral rear wing. The forward wing has full-span control surfaces and is thus similar to a canard wing, but is considerably larger. The aircraft has unusual landing gear, with the main wheels located at the tips of the forward wing.

What a way to end a train. I can not think of a more interesting and passenger friendly car that graced a train, configured with 3 double bedrooms, 1 stateroom (with a shower), a 24 seat dome allowing 360 degree views, and a lounge observation end. In service on the Rio Grande Zephyr with a daytime only schedule, there was no need for the 1st class sleeping space and the rooms were removed with lounge seats added. Still, the DRGW ex-California Zephyr Silver Sky remained the classiest passenger car to be placed on the tail end of a train.

The Claymore heavy fighter is designed to engage capital ships. It is typically deployed from carriers where it is transported in a folded configuration, stacked in racks of eight.
It is armed with two dual plasma projectile cannons. The cannons can be configured to shoot short salvos where the four cannons fire in succession, or they can fire a single coordinated shot with devastating power.
Because of it's thin profile the Claymore is hard to hit from forward and behind. A capital ship without escort will not last many minutes against a wing of these.

Built for SHIPtember 2021!
Length: 44 studs
Width: 64 studs
Height: 106 studs
With only a few days left before september 1, I decided to build my verison of a concept by Theo Stylianides:
I've wanted to build it for some time but didn't really know if I could pull of the delicate design.
I had to rebuild it many times during the month. Because I wanted it so thin, it was hard to assemble all the parts. At one point the whole ship just broke apart and I had to rebuild everything. The vertical body of the ship is only 1 stud thick, but built with SNOT-bricks so I can attach plates on the sides. The black stripe on the side on the ship plus the engines are what's keeping it together. The upper and lower part are held together with a technic tructure that also contains the mechanism for folding the wings.
There is a small doodle on the original concept art that suggests the "wings" can be folded. I didn't know if I should bother with it, but I thought it would make the ship a bit more interesting if I could manage that feature. So after much experimentation I was able to build a mechanism that folds one wing up and the other one down.
An other thing that gave me problems during the build process was gravity. Again. The design makes it very tail heavy. My original plan was to just make it stand on the cannons, but that would have made the whole ship tip over backwards. The solution was to build a stand for it. It's not really that pretty. I might have to redesign the stand later.
I've spent many late nights on this. Sacrificing sleep. It was fun, but now I'm fed up with it! 😄
Thanks to everyone who helped me and gave me feedback!

Here's a close up detail of the cool decal on the flank of this modern machine here on MofW Monday.
I almost never shoot Maintenance-of-Way equipment but this caught my eye and I figured some of you might find it of interest so I grabbed a couple images. This regulator was built by CSXT at the Bryan Park roadway equipment shop in Richmond, VA in a facility that was once the RF&P railroad's main locomotive shop. This regulator is configured for snow fighting duty with a wedge plow nose, spreader wings, and a snowblower on the rear. It is equipment like this that has led to the mass disappearance of traditional locomotive pushed equipment like Jordan Spreaders, wedge plows, and rotaries except for the biggest jobs and heaviest snow accumulations.
It is seen here beside about MP 148.2 on modern day CSXT's Berkshire Sub mainline, the former Boston and Albany Railroad parked on the lead teack to the old East Yard which has been completely removed except for this one MofW spur.

Sony Ericsson W850i
The Sony Ericsson W850i is the first 3G sliding form factor mobile phone by Sony Ericsson, introduced in Q2 2006. It is a member of their Walkman line. The phone made its first public appearance in the 2006 movie The Da Vinci Code, months before its release. It is similar mechanically to the Sony Ericsson K800i but differs in its form factor, memory card support of the Memory Stick PRO Duo instead of Memory Stick Micro, and the camera (2.0 megapixels instead of 3.2 for the K800i, and with some additional features removed)
The phone is available in Precious Black or Golden White and is configured for operator over the air (OTA) music download services and accepts popular music file formats including e-AAC+, and includes a 1 GB Memory Stick PRO Duo. The Golden White version has a gold Walkman logo on the back which the black version does not include.
The Walkman player contains Gracenote Mobile TrackID, which enables a user to record a few seconds of a song, either via the microphone or the in-built FM radio, and then with one click send that clip to the Gracenote worldwide music database which will identify the track and relay the information back to the phone.
The model shares all the features the W880i has except the form factor and the inclusion of an FM radio and Photolight on this model.[1]
There is a non-3G version of the W850i called W830c.

Swissair Flight 111 (SR111, SWR111) was a Swissair McDonnell Douglas MD-11 on a scheduled airline flight from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, United States to Cointrin International Airport in Geneva, Switzerland. This flight was also a codeshare flight with Delta Air Lines.
On Wednesday, 2 September 1998, the aircraft used for the flight, registered HB-IWF, crashed into the Atlantic Ocean southwest of Halifax International Airport at the entrance to St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia. The crash site was 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from shore, roughly equidistant from the tiny fishing and tourist communities of Peggys Cove and Bayswater. All 229 people on board died—the highest death toll of any aviation accident involving a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 and the second-highest of any air disaster to occur in Canada, after Arrow Air Flight 1285. This is one of only two hull losses of the passenger configured MD-11, along with China Airlines Flight 642.
The initial search and rescue response, crash recovery operation, and resulting investigation by the Government of Canada took over four years and cost CAD 57 million (at that time approximately US$38 million). The Transportation Safety Board of Canada's (TSB) official report of their investigation stated that flammable material used in the aircraft's structure allowed a fire to spread beyond the control of the crew, resulting in a loss of control and the crash of the aircraft.
Swissair Flight 111 was known as the "UN shuttle" due to its popularity with United Nations officials; the flight often carried business executives, scientists, and researchers
Aircraft
The aircraft, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11, serial number 48448 registered HB-IWF, was manufactured in 1991 and Swissair was its only operator. It bore the title of Vaud, in honor of the Swiss canton of the same name. The airframe had a total of 36,041 hours. The three engines were Pratt & Whitney 4462s. The cabin was configured with 241 seats (12 six-abreast first-, 49 seven-abreast business-, and 180 nine-abreast economy-class). First- and business-class seats were equipped with an in seat in-flight entertainment system, installed at some point after initial entry into service. (Wikipedia)

hiking the right of way east of MP178 on the union pacific roseville subdivision over california's sierra nevada mountains can be treacherous business; ballast is rough and loose and space to walk along the tracks is very narrow in places with steep drops to the side.
if one is going to walk along or on the tracks here (which is illegal but i digress) QUALITY hiking boots and a scanner configured to seek for the EOTD transmission from a train especially are a must.
the couple in the right side of this photo had neither but at least they had the good sense enough to move away from the tracks and stay there when we told them a few minutes in advance the MRVNP was coming up behind.
they were walking along the track the train is traveling on.
trains can be pretty difficult to hear from behind in the mountains, especially over donner pass where the noise from nearby interstate 80 can be heard almost everywhere along the route.
the nearest grade crossing i can think of to the west of this location is at blue canyon, some fourteen rail miles away--you will hear no train horns in this area.
In 2005 it was configured as a heli tanker. In 2009 the machine was doing bucketing. 50 years old and still working with Tasman Helicopters
I finally received my custom configured handheld synthesizer.

Future fun is now assured.

Another Royal Air Force A330 Voyager visitor this month, this time the VIP configured and specially painted in the Union Jack Livery version of the aircraft. Painted just last June, and dubbed as Boris Force One it will support the Prime Minister, the Royal Family, and other senior officials on state visits.
With callsign ASCOT2630, 'ZZ336' landed on 25.10.2020 for the very first time at Malta International Airport on another navigational training flight, arriving directly from RAF Brize Norton. It departed a few hours later.
