This one was a surprise, with an immaculate 60002 working 0E23 08:40 Toton TMD to Doncaster Belmont Down Yard, presumably having undergone maintenance.
Another frame from my first visit to this well known spot.
Finger Lakes Railway road train GS2 is departing Solvay on their way back nearly 50 miles to their headquarters in Geneva where they began their day. Having dropped their train and switched for a bit they have gathered up their traffic that arrived off the CSXT or NYSW interchange here on the outskirts of Syracuse. Leading the train are consecutively numbered GP38-2s 2002 (blt. May 1966 as a GP40 CN 4005) and 2003 (blt. Jan. 1967 as a GP40 MILW 154).
Both units are dressed in a sharp 'lighting stripe' scheme that pays homage to the New York Central heritage of this route known as the 'Auburn Road' a secondary line that dates from 1838. Becoming part of the New York Central System in 1853 it was actually one of three parallel lines the NYC came to own between Syracuse and Rochester. It somehow survived to be passed to successors Penn Central and Conrail before finally being spun off to the newly created Finger Lakes in 1995. Today 76 miles of the Auburn Road from Solvay (just outside Syracuse) to Canandaigua survives under FGLK auspices and here on the east end of that route is where we find the train passing the old NYC non automatic block semaphore signal forever displaying and approach indication here at about MP 4.1. Helping to round out the scene is the distinct NYC style cast concrete whistle post.

Der Jaguar E-Type (in den USA: Jaguar XK-E) war ein Sportwagen-Modell des englischen Autoherstellers Jaguar. Er wurde am 15. März 1961 auf dem Genfer Auto-Salon als Abkömmling des erfolgreichen Rennwagens Jaguar D-Type vorgestellt. Er war als zwei- und 2+2-sitziges Coupé (Fixed-Head Coupé) und als zweisitziger Roadster (OTS oder Open Two Seater) erhältlich.
Der Sechszylinder-Reihenmotor mit 3781 cm³ und 265 bhp/269 PS (197,6 kW) entspricht dem des XK 150 S 3,8 Liter. Er treibt über ein Viergangschaltgetriebe die Hinterräder an. Der E-Type erreicht eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von knapp 240 km/h. Außer seiner hohen Leistung galt insbesondere das von Malcolm Sayer entwickelte Design als aufregend. Vor allem in den USA wurde der E-Type mit großem Erfolg verkauft.
The Jaguar E-Type (in the USA: Jaguar XK-E) was a sports car model from the English car manufacturer Jaguar. It was presented on March 15, 1961 at the Geneva Motor Show as a descendant of the successful Jaguar D-Type racing car. It was available as a two- and 2+2-seat coupé (Fixed-Head Coupé) and as a two-seat roadster (OTS or Open Two Seater).
The six-cylinder in-line engine with 3781 cm³ and 265 bhp/269 hp (197.6 kW) corresponds to that of the XK 150 S 3.8 liters. It drives the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. The E-Type reaches a top speed of almost 240 km/h. In addition to its high performance, the design developed by Malcolm Sayer was particularly exciting. The E-Type was sold with great success, especially in the USA.
Just table scrapping ideas based on the 1x4 hinge plate and thought I would share. Probably not a new idea, but just something I have never tried. It could possibly be expanded upon by adding more hinges, therefore theoretically creating more shapes.
The imbroglio of this particular edifice is one that has played itself out in almost every American city at least once. It's a story of powerful, elected officials using taxpayer money to pay far above market rate for a derelict (albeit beautiful) building. The recipient of the largess (seller of the property) was most recently caught red-handed and charged with bribery. Sadly, the citizen is stuck with a crumbling, historic monument and over $5 million in debt.
I intend to chronicle the whole story on Bearings at some point in the near future.
