Pancake tortoises are native to the area of Tanzania and Kenya. The species is thought to be the fastest tortoise in the world. They can quickly evade predators by scampering under rocks, and even climbing nearly vertical services. Unlike many other tortoises, if they find themselves on their backs, they can flip upright quickly.

Reading and Northern's North Reading Fast Freight, or NRFF, is coming through the companies headquarters in Port Clinton, Pennsylvania. Two SD50s sandwiching a SD40-2 power the train of 30 or so cars.

Fast

Spatule catches all kinds of animals that found in silt shallow water. She moves her peak rapidly from side to side. When traps a small animal , throws it into the air and swallowed as you can see in the photograph. In this case she has caught a shrimp. The peak size is impressive, and to move it so long and so fast its profile is very thin, so that the resistance in the water is small.

 

La espátula se alimenta de todo tipo de animalillos que encuentra entre el limo de aguas poco profundas. Mueve el pico de un lado a otro con gran rapidez. Cuando atrapa un animalillo lo lanza al aire y lo traga tal y como se puede ver en la fotografía. En este caso ha atrapado una quisquilla. El tamaño de su pico es impresionante, y para poder moverlo tanto tiempo y tan rápido su perfil es muy delgado, por lo que la resistencia dentro del agua es pequeña.

Day 134. Furious, perhaps, but certainly not very fast. Not today at least!

Union Pacific ‘high speed’ SD40-2s No. 8073, 8063, 8041, and 8070 find themselves pulling a low priority, slow moving train through Grant Tower in Salt Lake City, Utah on Jan. 28, 1978. 100 UP SD40-2 units were geared to operate at 80 mph speeds on priority intermodal trains. They were typically sandwiched between two DDA40X units, also geared for 80 mph operation.

Big rookie mistake - not checking ISO settings until too late at which time the waves were getting bigger and more dangerous so I had to leave the spot. I managed to get 6 seconds with a 15 stop ND filter and I did like the shot so I put it up anyway, noise and all.

The flags at Burger King were pretty and the people who worked there probably thought I was crazy, but people probably think that a lot ( I have to lay on the ground to get a lot of my shots, nothing makes you look crazier than laying in the middle of the sidewalk).

This car is so over the top and cartoonish.

Situated in the Palouse region, surrounded by wheat fields...a refreshing change from the fast paced hustle and bustle of the modern world.

181 with its long 86 footers sweeps through the curve just west of CA Junction. These boxcars are full of auto parts for the Ford plant in Claycomo, MO. This is pretty much a modern day "Fast Ford" train.

A fast moving cloud passes the summit of North Peak on a summer afternoon in Mono County, California.

A westbound tank train on the Harbor Belt was quickly rolling through Calumet Park on bland day around Chicagoland. A quirky NRE 3GS21C was in charge and was moving at an unusually quick pace.
