I figured I'd share these unfinished projects that have been sitting around for 7 or 8 years. I figure, if I haven't finished them yet, I never will.
With this one, I was planning on doing some sails using the Jaba's Sail Barge sails.
I was basing the design off of this concept art piece.

One of the few remaining T605s from Kenworth’s aborted wide cab engineering evaluation program from the early 2000s.
Another Colas Class 60, 60095, arrives at Drem. Coded 1Z99, 60095 will run into Drem Station before reversing onto the failed Oxwellmains - Aberdeen Cement train sitting in the Down Loop.

CEFX GP20D 2005 was tied down in Michigan City after delivering a South Shore coal load to the power plant.
The Michigan City Generating Station is a coal and natural gas-fired power plant located on the shore of Lake Michigan in Michigan City, Indiana. It is operated by Northern Indiana Public Service Company and plans to retire its electricity generating plant in Michigan City between 2026 and 2028.
NIPSCO will turn to solar, energy storage, and upgrades at its Sugar Creek Generating Station near Terre Haute to replace the generating capacity.
South Shore did not acquire the CEFX rebuilds and continues to rely on good old EMD products.
66567 Apparently "failed on a ballast working which again didn't get dropped over night, there was another ballast behind this but we couldn't get the shed on it 25/02/2018
In case this picture is misleading anyone, I’ll clarify that the idea with a side loader is to empty the bin into the hopper, not all over the arm itself. I’ve failed this concept a few times in the past and not because I’m a complete retard, rather due to distraction and/or a lack of observation. In view directly beneath the hopper access ladder is a white plastic bag..... this caused the catastrophe. As the previous bin lowered towards the ground, this bag flew out, floated in the air and caught my attention just as I grabbed the next bin. As per usual I hooked the joystick in the back right corner to simultaneously retract the slide and raise the arm, but instead of watching the arm movement in the mirror, my attention was diverted to this flying bag. To my dismay I witnessed the bag come to rest on top of the slide beam and cover up one of the sensors, which resulted in signal blockage and stoppage of the slide retracting.
As soon as I saw where the bag landed, I flicked my gaze around to the side mirror, seeing the slide stationary in the shown position and the arm continuing to raise the bin towards the hopper. After getting a visual of the unfolding circumstances in the mirror, I literally shouted out “NOOOOOOO!!!” in terror, then next thing the bin was inverted with the contents pouring all over the arm and onto the road. Fail. Of course the bin didn’t hold a single bag or two, it was fully loaded with sloppy and badly contained garbage, plus it was raining and a few members of the public witnessed the unsuccessful lift. My mind registered the likely outcome once I saw the bag cover the sensor, but everything happened so quick I didn’t even get the chance to consider releasing the joystick! After a few swear words and brief dissatisfaction over the event, I quickly got some humour out of the disaster and knew this was something worth sharing =]
Whyyyyyyy did I use indelible ink? Why did I put the paper on my dresser to draw the stick man! Whyyyy!!! LOL
Finally got it off with "Fantastik" and elbow grease.
After running from Kalgoorlie towards Parkeston to assist a failed 5MP9, Q4005 had made it only a couple of hundred metres before itself failed with Q4005,SCT015,SCT007 once again a failure and waiting for another assistance loco on 13-7-13
Wait, what? How's this a fail? Well, you see, I'm not here for these units; I'm here for GEs. Old ones. Not Dash 9s. And RailAmerica parked them right before I could get out there.
After over 20 years aging in the slide binders, I guess this has aged OK. An ex-SP SD39 and 20-cylinder tunnel motor aren't so bad.
The westbound train has arrived in Limon, CO and is spotting their UP interchange.

Terribly underexposed (had to really pull up the exposure on the RAW file), out of focus, noise. Ah, isn't "art" fabulous? :-)
My work is too "tidy". I need to mess it up a bit more.
entry for "worst of 2020"
young eagle roosted at least an hour, i'm freezing my butt off waiting for a clear shot through the twigs. finally just at sunset, she decides to leave... and i blow the flight shot.
perfect ending for a year to forget.
On the back of 5M59 Wolverton Centre Sidings to Leicester L.I.P. 20314 and 20311 trundle away from Whitacre Loop. The 20's had failed the previous day and the 37 had been drafted in from Ilford.
31233 which failed at Shrewsbury was on rear of 3z01 Shrewsbury - Derby RTC,97302 was the leading locomotive.passing Cosford station on 11/01/2015
Whilst waiting on a late running diverted Freight, not only did I get a Grand Central Power Car running north, but I also got a 67 hauling a failed 225 set.
67024 is seen hauling the failed set through Prestonpans. The set consisted of an unidentified DVT and 91102. This was running as 5G22, Edinburgh Waverley to Bounds Green

8F, 48431 had been dumped in the yard at Oakworth on the 9th December 1995, having failed on a Santa Special. It made quite a nice glint shot. I wonder whether we'll ever see it in traffic again.
