Keolis Extra 2025 is seen passing the former B&M Lancaster Freight House in Lancaster, MA as they qualify crews on the Pan Am Worcester Main to account for track work scheduled on the Grand Junction in the coming weeks.
Certainly not the best photo, but there's a bit of a story behind this one.
In summer 2012 we attended the air show at Avord, but this event was below par, partly because that year, the higher powers decided that only French aircraft would be present.
I don't think we bothered with a flying programme but had to leave just before 5pm in order to get back to Paris at a reasonable hour. But we had only been back on the open road for a few minutes when this formation came into view - two Mirage 2000s in formation with a KC-135 tanker.
The KC-135 is one of three additional aircraft acquired from the US in 1994, these receiving extensive updates before arriving in France. The one in my photo is 525, derived from its US serial of 62-3525.

I was watching the sun go down when this little Egret decided to join me. I think it adds a little something extra to the photograph.
When more lines are needed just put an extra spar on the pole! I guess one day the power company will run out of room!
Happy Telegraph Tuesday!!
Temporarily out of real stuff, so relegated to digital diddling.

The Downeaster's Saturday evening Portland Extra was "cancelled" due to a lack of equipment (in particular, Amfleets) needed to build a consist capable of traveling at track speed on the Main. The assigned crew instead attached their engine (P42 no. 93) to the back of Train 698 and piggybacked their way to North Station. They then embarked on a crosstown move, picked up a new Amfleet coach from South Station, and zipped their way back to Portland.
In perfect light, we see 698 barreling towards Winnocks Neck Road on the Scarborough Marsh. Phase VI P42 no. 108 can be seen nose to nose with the 93 at the back of the consist.
Man I love the mountains. No location on this picture either because we drove around a bunch and I have no clue where it was.
Edit (6.9.2020) - Found it in my phone
Location: Nilgiri Mountains
A very rare westbound manifest passes through Nephi, UT. The train was running under the symbol of MSCWCX-22
This is an extra table scrap from November. I wasn't happy with it so I pivoted to a different model.
Extra-Parliamentarianism is a form of political expression that seeks to bring about social or political change by influencing knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours of the public or the policies of an organization or institution. Extra-Parliamentarianism has been associated with popular movements excluded from the formal political process.
Extra-Parliamentarianism is the rejection of the parliamentary process and older attitudes of formal representation. It has flourished throughout the development of capitalism , particularly during times of political, social and economic crisis. stewartmarsden.co.uk/galleries/extraparliamentarianism/
Running as W70, this extra 370, makes its way northbound though Lindale, Georgia as the clouds began to clear and the sun finally made its appearance. The trio of western GEs was a nice treat for a manifest.

I'm sure that certain people will recognise this rather distinctive of boxes, and hence be able to surmise with accuracy it's contents. (though only guess at the colour there-of)
However for those who don't find the box familiar, and for those who have a need to know, the identity of it's contents is revealed further along in my photo-stream.

There is just something about a unit with flared radiators running long hood forward. This particular NJ Transit MMC Extra consists of two GP40PH-2s bringing a PL42AC back to the MMC from Raritan.

De laatste dag vóór de ingebruikname van de Noord-Zuidlijn Metro betekende ook de laatste dag voor de lijnen 9, 10 en 16 van het Amsterdamse tramnet. Dat ging niet onopgemerkt voorbij: diverse museumtrams reden op deze dag in de "normale" dienst op deze lijnen. Hier steekt Stoeltjeswagen 307, met aan de haak bijwagen 792 de Dam over op weg naar het VUmc. De ritten trokken veel bekijks ( ook voorbijgangers lieten de trams niet onopgemerkt passeren) en natuurlijk ook talloze al dan niet van film-of fotoapparatuur voorziene liefhebbers...
Nog veel meer vintage/museumtrams zijn HIER te vinden:

En een fotografische reis langs de hele route van de voormalige lijn 16 is HIER te vinden:
US WW2 medium tank, powered by twin General Motors 6-71 diesel engines, use by General Montgomery during the battle of El Alamein. The 37mm gun was replaced by a wooden dummy gun barrel to create more room in the turret for extra radio equipment.
This Tank was used by General (later Field Marshal) Sir Bernard Law Montgomery in the Desert Campaign in 1942 - 1943, including the Battle of El Alamein in October 1942 in which the 8th Army defeated Rommel. It continued to be used by Monty during the invasion of Sicily in July 1943, and for the remainder of that year as the 8th Army advanced into Italy. It was attached
