Just a simple candid street style Snapograph captured at London UK of a guy going about his important business of helping to keep our streets clean.
"THANK YOU KINDLY" to anyone who finds this shot good enough to put amongst their "FAVES".
"THANK YOU KINDLY" to anyone who finds this shot good enough to leave a "Comment", I'll do my very best to reply to you individually.
The paint peeling from the walls and the high level of decay makes me so happy.... Is it strange to love this kind of stuff ? hehe...
My first ride in the cab of a steam locomotive. The engineer was kinda young. Niles Canyon Railway near Sunol, California.

With Mr. Harrop at the throttle of a B39-8E locomotive, SP 8038 departs the Ogden, Utah area at West Weber on another journey through the Great Basin to the crew change in Carlin, Nevada.
After not sleeping all night waiting on P001, my dumbass decided to go after A711 with a YN2 GP40-2 & GP39-2 for power. To the absolute amazement of myself, Travis & Larry, the conductor for today's edition was slower than a snail frozen in a block of ice 200ft below the surface of Antarctica. It no joke took him over 3 hours to build a 11 car train when all of the cars were located in a siding & just needed to be arranged in the right order. You could tell both the engineer & the dispatcher were getting rather crossed at him as he was holding up the subdivision the whole morning with several road trains waiting in Chattanooga for them to clear up. How someone was able to work so slow still baffles me.
Anyways, here we see them finally moving south going in the hole at Tilton to let one of those trains in Chattanooga get around them. Why did I stay up for this is beyond me since I was now going close to 27 hours without sleep by this point? Oh yeah, I'm a dumbass. 1-24-22
Adding a splash of color to a scene doused in white, the 470 Club's B&M F7A #4266 stands out like a sore thumb amidst the fresh snow and North Moat Mountain backdrop.
"R. R. Hood" is stenciled under the cab window, in honor of Raymond "Rudy" Hood who passed away in January 2022 at the age of 91. Rudy, as most of us knew him by, was an engineer for the Conway Scenic Railroad for 33 years.

Rio Grande SD40T-2 No. 5411 leads an 84-car Salt Lake City to Helper coal train through Utah's Spanish Fork Canyon approaching Narrows on Oct. 8, 1994. The engineer is holding a system timetable, which he tossed out the window for me to enjoy as a gift. In my humble opinion, Rio Grande guys were and continue to be the BEST.

Brittle stars, an alternate common name is the 'serpent stars', are a species-rich class of echinoderms with outstanding regenerative abilities. Living under rocks or in crevices with only the tips of the arms exposed, they are known to be seafloor ecosystem engineers. They reshape the seafloor sediment surface and influence the distribution of other seafloor species. They also provide nutrition to fish, sea stars and crab predators.
Their presence in a sediment sample is one indicator of a healthy benthic community. They embody nature's fragility and resilience.

The title refers to the only engineer's name that I automatically recall from a classic Dr Who episode. Unfortunately Engineer Eckersley was a bad 'un, in league other bad 'uns to steal the valuable mining deposits.

The Claymills Victorian pumping station is keen to encourage the next generation of engineers. This young man took us down to the the space above the boilers and explained the restoration project he was working on with his team .
This is an old one from the vault. He was a regular personality who rode his tricycle fitted with a mock-up steam engine around the ByWard Market. Haven't seen him around for over 5yrs.
Note: Rocky Mountain is at the old location of ByWard Market.

Utah Railway engineer Stu Turner commands the controls of the RUT311 local as it rumbles into North Salt Lake, Utah, on May 15, 2012. Stu was one of the kindest railroaders I've ever met, offering a friendly wave or a trackside chat. He was tragically taken from us in July 2020 due to brain cancer.
I went for a bike ride this morning and passed the site of the old Totley Tunnel Box around the same time as an engineers train having run from the Huddersfield area. First time I've seen the new livery in action.

Posing in front of the Polar Bear Express is engineer Rob Selman, on ONT 1808 which is painted in the Every Child Matters paint, painted in honour of the Indigenous Children and Indigenous People.

the universe is built from simple things.
a single thread, drawn from nothing.
a patient waiting. a precise geometry.
from this, a world is spun.
a map of forces, a trap for the unwary,
a fragile, shimmering home.
it is the work of a silent engineer,
drawing a new reality
out of the darkness.
From Engineer Pass (el. 12,800 ft) on the Alpine Loop in the San Juan Mountains, the view to the north east is dominated by (from left to right) Wetterhorn Peak (14, 021 ft), Matterhorn (13,590 ft) Peak and Uncompahgre Peak (14,321 ft).
Engineer Gary has his quintet of EMD geeps well in hand as they pull a 30+ car loaded grain train north leveling out after climbing a stiff grade from Ebenezer. Georgia Northeastern GP10 #7562 is in the lead position this afternoon followed by GP9 #6576, GP18 #8705, GP38 #9708 & GP20 #4125.
On August 31st, 2023, well known railroader Mike Del Vecchio passed away after a battle with cancer. Although I didn't know Mike too well personally, I never heard a bad word spoken about him. Seen here is him posing as the engineer on #4109 during the United Railroad Historical Society's photo shoot in Boonton.

Winter presents all kinds of interesting challenges as a photographer. The cold, snow, and ice all provide risks and rewards. I decided to brave those elements recently and hiked through a foot of powder to the top of a ridge near Durango, Colorado. My reward was quite special. The last light of the day kissed the top of 12,968 ft. Engineer Mountain while the soft pink light at the end of the day illuminated the snow below in Animas Valley.

Engineer Nevets is into his dynamics as he descends the hill at Comstock Park with 4 EMDs and about 80 cars. A classic Pere Marquette concrete whistle post still protects the next crossing north.
