Was really hoping to see the 6002/9146 operate, but alas they sit quietly in the pre-dawn hours illuminated by a street light and the camera's compensation for low light on the siding in Chester. 6002 is an SD40T-2 and 9146 is a C40-8s slug. Maybe on my trip in June....
45596 passes Kibworth with 1Z80 returning 'Yorkshireman' shut off, blowing off with the rear 47 giving it full beans pushing, along with the sun dipping behind a small cloud for the first time in over an hour (only to reappear as the train passed)
Gli amici sono quelli che ti aiutano a rialzarti, quando le altre persone neanche sapevano che eri caduto.

Awesome place to go take photos. I was a little focused on having fun and didn't take as many pictures as I should have, especially with the great landscapes. Maybe soon I'll go back and dedicate it just for photography.
When we reached the favorite swimming hole, we found it was almost dry.
We haven't had any substantial rainfall in the past two months.
after waiting 2 hours at mold jctn and following the progress----or lack of it--- of the north wales coast express on rtt this is what finally appeared--the scot having been taken off at chester---should have realised that something like this was bound to happen
Near the town of Ilwaco, WA. It was named by British fur trader John Meares, who turned his ship around just north of here and missed discovering the Columbia River in 1788, hence the name. This area experiences fog about 1/3 of every year. About 2,000 vessels have sunk here since 1792.
Looking back over photos from my first visit to Grand Falls (known as Chocolate Falls), I recall being disappointed with the low water flow. This time I concentrated on the bright colors captured under that overcast sky and, in particular, the lovely green from the algae that is never seen during the "chocolate" flow. I'm still learning to "take" what Nature gives me.
I discovered this little gem on the coast of Southern Washington. This spot is the first place where Lewis and Clark came when they first arrived at the Pacific. Clark said in his journal "men appear much satisfied with their trip beholding with astonishment the high waves dashing against the rock and this emence ocean."
... experimenting with minimalism and conceptualism.... even had to create my own group so I'd have somewhere to post it !
Bessemer Misc job featuring a lonesome LHF BLE 862 heads south at Oneida with a singular boxcar for Calvin Yard, and we see 862 preparing to work Calvin Yard
I can’t help feeling this little lad was told “We’re going to Disney today,” only to find out it was the concert hall in Downtown LA rather than the Theme Park. The concert hall is a really striking and rather lovely piece of architecture, though I’m not sure he’d have seen it like that.
There was an eclipse of the moon last night but sadly throughout the time it was occurring there was thick cloud and I didn't see the moon at all.
Later in the evening the clouds dissipated but by the there was no eclipse so I never got to see the red colouring that I had hoped to see.
An unidentified Class 47 storms across Ais Gill viaduct with a "Cumbrian Mountain Express" c.1981. I think I may have been expecting steam here! In those days access was straight up from the road below and under the viaduct, it's much more difficult today.
A scan of an Agfa CT21 transparency on 35mm, hence the grain.

Hello (: It's been a while since I update my Flickr. I have 2 more days to study for my exam and bammmmm I will be done with it forever.
What else to add? Hmm..

Heading Southbound, BLE 905 blasts through the golden hour light. The fog lifted for some sun. Light power unfortunately as seems to be my luck these days
The old Cape Disappointment lighthouse on what was once part of Fort Canby, and is now the Cape Disappointment State Park in Washington.
Me and my wife went to Shibuya Sky in Japan. It was only drizzling when we were at the base but when we got to the Observation, it rained hard that you can barely see outside, all you see is white clouds like the glass is frosted. I patiently waited until I got this image, not the best but I think it's not the worst either. What do you think? I think, I would rather have an image than no image at all.
Thanks for viewing, Aloha!
In the later 1990s I made a regular practice of tracing C&NW locomotives with an eye towards catching them on the Adams line. As this didn't indicate the position in the consist it usually lead to disappointment with the green and yellow trailing.
Thankfully that reaction has faded over the years and I've never been one to pass on a photograph regardless of power. Case in point we have this SSPR rounding the curve at Black River Falls. This ex-C&NW SD60 has already received a coat of armour yellow but makes a fine leader. In years to come this EMD would leave the roster and have its number recycled onto what else? a widecab GE. This unit would live on in the HLCX lease fleet, then joining the ranks on NS. Now 5948 has been recabbed as an SD60E.
