This train may be the last seen with a foreign leader. CP 137 is one of the more decent trains that run on CP's Galt Subdivision and today's was pretty good as BNSF 5363 and UP 2735 (F/R) haul dozens of multis back to the Midwestern United States. I photographed this train at the Victoria Road crossing and the birch trees are a nice addition in the photo.
As the year draws to a close, I would have to say that railfanning the various mainlines in 2024 was very decent, especially with the economy being rather soft. In terms of this train, I managed to catch most of them when they had foreign leaders. Hope the trend continues in 2025.

Another shot from my trip down to La Jolla, California. Named it Foreign Land because of all the textured sand stone in the foreground. This is a great place to shoot if you ever get the chance. There are potholes and craters everywhere.

Sangaris : première patrouille pour le GTIA Centurion
Le 13 juin 2015, la compagnie VBCI du GTIA (groupement tactique interarmes) Centurion a effectué ses premières patrouilles dans Bangui. Quelques jours après leur arrivée en Centrafrique, les légionnaires ont remplacé les tirailleurs du GTIA Turco. À bord de leurs VBCI, ils patrouillent plusieurs fois par jour, dans Bangui et ses alentours, afin d’appuyer la MINUSCA dans sa mission de sécurisation de la capitale.
La section VBCI du 2eREI (régiment étranger d’infanterie) a quitté en fin de matinée le camp de M’Poko pour rejoindre l’Est de Bangui. Au cours de leur progression, les légionnaires ont été immédiatement au contact de la population en traversant le marché en pleine effervescence qui borde l’avenue reliant l’aéroport au centre-ville. La section s’est ensuite engagée sur des pistes étroites en latérite bordées par des rizières et des hautes herbes, où le VBCI a une fois de plus démontré sa capacité à évoluer sur des terrains difficiles.
Après une demi-heure de trajet, les légionnaires ont débarqué des VBCI pour poursuivre leur patrouille à pied afin de gagner la maison du chef de quartier. En chemin, des villageois ont abordé la section pour signaler la présence de coupeurs de route à quelques kilomètres de là. Le chef de section a donné l’ordre à la section de réembarquer à bord des véhicules blindés afin de rejoindre rapidement la zone indiquée par la population. Après avoir sécurisé les lieux, les légionnaires ont constaté que les brigands avaient déjà fui, dissimulés par une végétation très dense.
Au cours de leur patrouille, les légionnaires ont croisé à plusieurs reprises des détachements de la MINUSCA qui patrouillaient dans le centre-ville de Bangui. Ils sont en effet plus de 2 300 casques bleus à sécuriser la capitale.
Chaque jour, la force Sangaris conduit des patrouilles dans Bangui et en province, de jour comme de nuit, par tous les temps, afin d’appuyer la MINUSCA dans la sécurisation et le retour de l’autorité de l’État en Centrafrique.
Lancée le 5 décembre 2013 par le Président de la République, l’opération Sangaris vise à rétablir un niveau de sécurité minimale en République centrafricaine et à appuyer la mission de l’ONU, désormais pleinement opérationnelle.

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on one side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an Englishman in New York
See me walking down Fifth Avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run
If, "Manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Just a quick shot for last weeks theme as i am playing catch up again and have to get ready as i have loads to do, only one day off in the last two weeks! I hate rushing my photos as i think this is crap!
Anyhoo i thought this would be appropriate for the theme. I think it doesnt matter how much true blooded you think you might be as if you go back far enough in your history you will find that your family have some direct link to another country or continent that you never thought of. If you think about it, we must have all been related if you go back further than your mind can grasp, shocking thought really! :P Anyway im proud to have all these nationalities in my blood, are you?
Now i'm off to do more work and try and come up with a way to do my Stars theme justice to what i have in my head, heres hoping. Catch you soon guys and gals! :)

When I returned from my month in the UK last year, I had a ten pound note left worth about $16A.
I went to the bank and asked them to change it to Aussie dollars but there was a $10 administration fee for any amount so it would have left me with enough for a coffee, so I kept it, as I might as well burn it.
In 1983, the Aussie dollar was floated allowing its value to fluctuate dependent on supply and demand on international money markets.
The Aussie dollar took a serious nose dive and at its worst was worth about half the USD.
This meant that if we wanted to go to the US, it was a very expensive exercise.
Now the USD is collapsing as the government prints money like there is no tomorrow, and the Australian economy is stong so the Aussie dollar had got as high as $1.10 USD, so all of a sudden it looks attractive to blow the dust off the passport again. There are elements of the Australian tourism industriy crying to the government that it isn't right because the American holiday makers have slowed down. Hello - we have been suffering for nearly 30 years.
Studio drama.
I decided to use some burning paper for effect, so got a metal oven tray to collect the dropping ashes.
Mrs Mail was watching me from the lounge next to the patio where I was doing it.
However, it was a little bit windy and the burning paper flared up quickly and I had to drop it. Of course, the wind didn't allow it to drop on the tray and it drifted off course over the black drop cloth and onto the patio floor.
The paper extinguished quickly but not before the hair on the back of Mrs Mails neck stood up.
I got the dustpan and hand brush, but as fast as I swept it into the pan, the breeze blew it out all over the patio.
So plan B was get the little vacuum cleaner from the garage and collect all the black cinders that were spreading all over the patio. I really should have got the house vacuum cleaner as it has a variable speed motor, which when turned up just might have drowned out the lecture from Mrs Mail.
Such dedication to photography - I really don't know where it comes from.

First roll (a test roll I guess) through the Pony.
We'll maybe wake up
in foreign cities where the sun's a ghost,
a figment of itself and angular
starched consonants braid the tongue at its root
so all sense of who we are is lost to words,
and nothing that we know can be unravelled.

I'm not even sure which version of R2 this is, I don't remember the "sewage treatment" battle-pack but I must have bought it at some point.

Cool driftwood placed perfectly on the shoreline for photographers... in the mist. Conditions don't get much better! Wonder where it came from...Norway maybe?
If you haven't already take a look at a recent article I wrote for inmybag.net on the attitudes of a photographer and how they can affect the way we take images. Find it here: inmybag.net/peter-fenech/
I've got some cool feedback so far so pay it a visit if you fancy it :)
