BNSF dispatched a Snow Dozer from Superior to Kelly Lake using two GP60Ms for power following a decent dump of snow in the area. It made quite the sight coming under the Highway 23 overpass at Wrenshall, MN
Having met a westbound Ohio Central train, Wheeling 768 limestone accelerates from a stop at Bowerston after securing a track warrant from the Ohio Central dispatcher. The old ABS signals are a holdover from when this was an important route for the Norfolk & Western.
This guy acted like he was in charge of taxis and tourists would feel obligated to pay him :) Welcome to New York!

みんな残り福を狙うんだ！！！！
hiko Sorry I'm toooooooo late late :/
After dispatching the assassin squad, Cold Steel returns his blade to its sheath and surveys the scene for innocents who may be in need of assistance.

I'm back on the Moray Firth and a storm is blowing. It's awesome. Nuff said. Cullen Bay in Morayshire, Scotland.
New York, Susquehanna & Western train SU-1 with GP18 #1800 handles a southbound train south of Greene, NY. To this day I look back and I have called this job the BH1, even though this was SU-1. Walter Rich was a big NYO&W fan and used "SU" for the jobs throughout the entire system when first putting the north and south together. NYO&W used "SU" the same way.
1 for Binghamton, 2 for Utica, 3 for 0700 Little Ferry, and 4 for 1900 Little Ferry. A second job for that day would be "A". So, an SU-1A would be a second Binghamton job. It caused quite a bit of confusion with the dispatchers with several "SU's" spread from NJ to NY, so it was soon changed to the letter/number system that is still in use today with letters for the location, BH=Binghamton and a number for the assigned crew.
After watching piss poor CN dispatching at Tara the last hour, the UP Ft. Dodge local is now making a mad dash to Calendar Yard and back to Ft. Dodge before dying. The job has just crossed the CN Waterloo Sub after waiting for a U713 to pull into Valero at Tara. This job works up and down the Ft Dodge and Tara Subs in western Iowa on the UP Iowa branches.
An unlikely mix of GE power in the form of CP 8038, CN 3153 and NS 7634 slowly make their way into Bealville’s east end as the dispatcher packs up the sidings in anticipation of MoW crews reopening the line.
savute plains, a leopard is trying to approach a kudu .
those big cats have a slow approach technique during which a minimal error makes the hunting fail.
a leopard must approach about 10/15 meters from the prey to have a good chance..it then makes a brief and an explosive charge(uo to 60kmh) ,pounching on its prey and dispatching it with bite to the neck.leopards do not have the aptitude to chase their quarry over any kind of distance.many of their preys are faster and can be caught only with an ambush.despite what we think,researchers believe that each individual leopard accounts for 20/40 kills a year.
of course if preys are small or stolen from hyenas and lions they have to hunt much more.
the leopard intraspecific natural enemies are baboons (one of the leopard favorite meal too) ,hyenas and wild dogs can steal them the preys.
but only the male lions can catch and kill easily an adult leopard.
the lion females are used to attack leopards but usually with the purpose to intimidate them.lion females are more tolerant towards other animals not considered as food.
the lion males instead have an instinct that brings them to kill all the possible competitors and they do it.
in savute there are notorius lion prides and leopards must stay always on alert.
anyway the leopard remain maybe the most beautiful african predator ,a deadly form of perfection.

Due to excessive amount of work days this week, it will be "Grab-a-Box" week. This one from May of 2002. First up is a daylight Susquehanna SU-99 accelerating through CP Hall at Campbell Hall, NY after clearing the Hudson Seconday.
An empty cal hopper train takes the siding in Barboursville and will run around its train before heading back north after the dispatcher changed plans for the crew.
The Sloman Dispatcher (built in 2012) heading east after exiting the Iroquois Locks in Iroquois, Ontario, Canada.
This general cargo ship was built in 2012 by Jiangzhou Union Shipbuilding in Rui Chang, China.
Its deadweight is 12,634 tons, with a gross tonnage of 9,611 tons.
Its home port is Saint John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.
It is currently sailing under the flag of Antigua & Barbuda.
As another autumn day turns to night on October 1, 2020, the signals light up at West Tuscor, Montana, in response to a couple mouse clicks from the Montana Rail Link dispatcher in Missoula. Not long after, rumbling locomotives and rolling tonnage can be heard bouncing off the water and walls lining the Clark Fork valley at Trout Creek to the east. As a BNSF train curves into Tuscor, the scene slowly lights up from the approaching train, and a green signal on the main line greets its passage west on MRL’s Fourth Subdivision. With MRL’s commitment to PTC installation, it’s hard to say how long the cantilevers and seachlights will last.
August 21st 2024 has found me in the West Virginia coal country, staring right at CSX AC44CW 529 and 3 other big GE's hammering through the inside of Piney Tunnel No.1 near Beckley, West Virginia.
Piney Tunnel No.1 is a formidable place on the former C&O Piney Creek Sub, hosting the crest of a 1.3% grade within the confines between each portal. It is not much in the way of a long tunnel, measuring in at only 738 feet long, but is no less a mightily impressive piece of engineering to be in awe of. Just to think of the sheer amount of effort it had taken to be able to blast through an entire hillside of solid rock with far more primitive tools and technology is incredible.
As the train pokes out of the tunnel a call to the dispatcher at Jacksonville is made, inquiring on the availability of track space in Quinnimont for their 82 loads of coal from Arch Resource's Beckley-Pocahontas Mine. A reply from the dispatcher tells them, there is no room for it in Quinnimont on these day, and it is up to their discretion on what they would like to do at this point in regards to tying down the train. A quick conversation amongst the head end crew and the pusher crew decides that they will happily take the early quit. The call is made to the dispatcher that they are tying the train down on the main at nearby Raleigh Yard.
Instead of bringing the train back down to the New River Gorge outside of Prince, it will have to wait for another day and another crew to do the work of bringing the coal loads down off of the mountain for yarding. Quinnimont is still 14 miles away and 857 feet lower in elevation, an average drop of 61 feet (1.63% gradient) per mile.
Millie had a 100% success in vole hunting throughout the day that we watched. She devoured no fewer than eight in a six hour period.
I lined this signal a few hundred times during my tenure dispatching the B&P from the Ohio Central office in Coshocton, Ohio. This is on the former Baltimore & Ohio RR between the Buffalo & Pittsburgh Railroad's namesake cities.

This large golden orb-weaver dispatched this large bumble bee and then quickly decapitated it. It seems that these, or this particular individual, orb-weaver favors brains. Could it be a Zombie spider, but don't let that keep you up at night. However remember Halloween is just around the corner.

Breezing by at 55mph, engineer Ellis Lister effortlessly brings an empty West Labadie coal bucket through the sleepy village of Holden. They took little to no time to get back up to speed after coming out of the hole in Centerview; In a last-minute decision, they had to cool their jets due to Amtrak's westbound 319 approaching two of its station stops in Sedalia and Warrensburg. Although I'm sure they could have easily made it to Lee's Summit with Mr. Lister at the throttle, the dispatcher thought otherwise. This caused the train to arrive at this location 15 minutes before sunset.
A westbound BN train is approaching East Dubuque on Main #1. The train is using CCP trackage from Portage to East Dubuque to move across the Aurora Sub. The BN and IC each owned a main line through here, but the IC retained the dispatching and maintenance until 1994, when the CCP leased it to the BN. An agreement that still stands true today.

The SM42 and SU42 locomotives of Chojnice depot are only supposed to be running on the weekends in May, June and September, aswell as full-time in July and August. However the reality is way different and they are also forced to work part-time in other months.
The recent decline in the reliability of railbusses forces the Pomeranian branch of PolRegio (previously Przewozy Regionalne; PR) to use two of their locomotives and one passenger coach each day to replace the broken down railbusses.
In fact, the situation on 21.01.2025 was even harder, because just recently one of the SM42 locomotives had been withdrawn from service, and one of the locomotives had to be dispatched to transport one EN57 and one EN71 unit from Chojnice to Gdynia for overhaul. This required for the retro-painted SM42-523, which was one of the least reliable locomotives in the depot, to be brought back into service after 4-5 months of a standstill.
Luckily the locomotive had no tech problems and could easily handle the ROS 50785 "Szkolniak" service on 21.01, which I photographed as it was starting its journey from Tczew towards Chojnice. Here the double track Ostbahn has to steeply climb up from the eastern part of the station in Tczew, in order to cut the line from Warsaw to Gdańsk.
The perspective makes it look like as if the locomotive was on the Marschbahn, due to the fact, that the lowlands between Tczew and the Baltic sea are almost completely flat, and partially submerged under sea level.

After making a setout at Gilman, the eastbound M train heads east to Hoosier Lift. Unfortunate for the people of town, and Amtrak, the town and diamond were blocked for about half an hour while they worked.
Unfortunately the dispatcher didn’t realize they had about half an hour of work to do. Skill issue.

Its April 1980 train 576 from Madison Wis stops at the signal and makes a call on the phone Box to the dispatcher
An almost three hours late Cardinal negotiates the tight curve that links the Buckingham Branch RR's Orange Sub with the North Mountain Sub. The track in the foreground heads east toward Richmond and is known as the Piedmont Sub. This was once all C&O track and is now all controlled by the BB dispatcher at Staunton.
