Royal International Air Tattoo - 2019.
I believe they are now officially part of the Royal Jordanian Air Force but cannot verify this or the con numbers. I notice some reference to con numbers such as LC069 which should belong to an Extra EA 300LC and use of serials such as JY-RNA which the previous Extra 300's used but I am not sure if these are correct.
I also did Ant-Man in his even more iconic Red and Blue Jumpsuit.
Tell me which one would work better for a set? Red and Blue? or Black and Red?
Picked this EXTRA girl up on Amazon for $11. Couldn't resist at that price. Haven't decide if she will stay, or just donate her outfit and leave the island.

Finished this yesterday. This pieces is huge compared to the sizes I usually work on. The image is tiled and stiched together. I'll probably do some more larger piece in the future.
BNSF 4708 hosted a BBQ somewhere, seen here trailing on a grain train delivered to CSX by BNSF at 71st St. in Chicago, on CSX's Blue Island Sub.
Back on March 8th NHN GP18 handled an extra to Tri-City after the Sunday extra D8 was cancelled. It was a good save since so many came north to give chase, they surely didn't go home empty handed. They would turn back north light for Ossipee, another opportunity to get Calvin in the cab with his Uncle Cory, memories he will surely not soon forget. The location is at the Wakefield Transfer Station, I was able to sneak in about 10 minutes before they closed for the day.
here is the EXTRA doll from the vanity playset, on a tan curvy body.
very happy to report that the hair is super nice. idk what fiber, but not that troublesome kind that they often use for the strong fantasy colors.
she’s wearing MC2 boots and a galaxy print dress that i’m not sure of the origin... i've had it about as long as there have been curvy barbies 😆
still keeping busy during the monday morning editorial meetings...doodling keeps me from eating my own fist out of boredom.
Weirdly warm here in N. California. Plants seem confused. Here's one of our plum trees - blooming extremely early
These other two teaser photos are just extra bonuses for you guys today. I had initially planned for this series to span Weeks 1 and 2 of 2018, but on Fridays and Saturdays only, with the final 20 photos split over Weeks 4 and 6. I’d already picked out these two teasers to go with those two additional sets by the time I changed my mind to consolidate all the photos into Weeks 1 and 2 by uploading on Thursdays as well. So here you go.
This one is yet another shot from our table at the back of the restaurant, looking over to the right-side wall. There’s a slight emphasis on the giant, old painting on the wall on the extreme left of the pic. That was completely removed by the time the auction folks got here to do their thing (at least based on the pictures taken and posted to the auction webpage), so hopefully whoever took it will give it a good home and keep it preserved!

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
Hard to imagine now with cold grey skies over England, but back in August , temperatures were exceeding 40degrees in parts of Europe. This is the interior of a restaurant in Budapest where the shade was very welcome.
Extra SCT service, 3MA1 climbs upgrade at Yantaringa hauled by CM3306, CSR009 and CSR001 on 8th April 2020.
Flats loaded with pipe roll west down the CSX Lurgan Subdivision through the farm fields outside Pinola, PA. The pipe, along with some storage cars and covered hoppers are on their way to the Pennsylvania and Southern Railway thanks to this Saturday extra. The pipe has been showing up in quantity at the P&S and at Yorkrail; reportedly being staged for Sunoco's Mariner East pipeline projects. There are two projects involved: one is refitting an existing east/west pipeline and the other is laying a new, parallel pipeline.

Complete your assigned tasks ahead of schedule and your reward is often another switch list, a classic railroaders lament... On this particular August afternoon in 2018 we had brought a Q train down from Steven’s Point to Shops in well under the advertised, to no ones surprise the crew room printer fired up and began spitting out lists almost immediately upon our arrival. Great... Double up a couple tracks to build M336 and shove it up the outside lead, simple enough. Hmmm, what’s this? Head pin shows car DL 7222, that’s odd. DL would be Delaware Lackawanna, the Alco road out east, don’t think I’ve ever seen any of their cars around. Four digit number, not unheard of but strange. Wait a minute! Sure enough my suspicions bore fruit as the mundane numbers on the “extra credit” switch list came to life pulling up along side the motley assortment of locomotives cobbled together to power the daily “everything but the bathroom sink” manifest from Fond du Lac to Kirk Yard. This train has a notoriously miserable consist of mismarshalled way freight garbage assembled from across the upper Midwest, “bring me your tired third-hand papermill boxes, your worn out busted ass cushioning unit coil gons and your dog vomit miscellaneous crap freight”. I swear if modern day Shops Yard had a Statue of Liberty this would be her motto. This flagship of doom train often rated a losers lunch of power, if it had reasonably round wheels and could produce power enough to make it chicago (ie so long as it could make it out of the yard) it qualified for the head end of the lashup, a funeral of dead and dying patients often followed. Today’s power consists of two DC GE’s, on being a much detested barn, an sd70m-2 that has thrown a power assembly through the carbody with lube oil still seeping out along the carbody, another ill fated M-2 that had some manner of road failure and the ex Erie Mining C420 7222. The forlorn Alco had spent a number of years in seclusion on the Mineral Range, sadly never seeing service. She had been sold to the Delaware Lackawanna for parts, many of which had been stuffed in her carbody and nose, unlikely to ever see revenue operation again. I have an odd relationship with the Erie Mining, a poorly informed, poorly planned and heavily THC influenced laden solo trip to the northland yielded several now lost rolls of film documenting multiple failed attempts to capture the Erie operations. Don’t do drugs and railfan kids, bad things happen... Anyways, coming across this exceedingly rare remnant of those crazy lost days was one of those moments when the circle comes together. I’m eternally saddened to have botched my one opportunity to witness the Erie in action but at the time figured I’d return armed with more intel and experience. Instead, girls, school and work intervened (among other things). I went off to Arizona for school and by the time I returned to the Midwest the Erie Mining was all but dead. I look back on these days with nostalgia and regret, glad to have at least had a taste of what once was while burdened by the knowledge I had nothing tangible to show for it. Nowadays I make my living doing the thing I once chased as a childhood dream, not so ironically I do so only a few dozen miles from where I blundered my one chance to witness what would remain among my favored roads. Today I drive my young girls up the shore past the overgrown remains of Taconite Harbor on the way to family adventures, every single time a youthful part of me awakens and shakes his sardonic 90’s punk rocker head at me cursing our failures yet applauding our present dat successes. It’s an odd journey we’re on my friends.... an odd journey indeed.
