In 1894 it was decided to build a railway between Christiania(now Oslo) and Bergen strait crossing the mountains. It was to become the most challenging railroad project in Europe at that time. Before the work on the railroad itself could begin, a road to bring in materials had to be build. The transports started from Voss, Flåm and Geilo and during the summer season hundreds of horses with goods traveled daily into the mountains. Approximately 2400 men were busy building the railroad. Most of the workers were foreigner and were called Rallar. The word has swedish origin and means wheelbarrow, but in Norway it was used as a common name on freelance construction workers. The railroad (Bergensbanen) was officially opened by King Haakon on 27th of november 1909. 493 km long, with 73 km of tunnels divided on 182 tunnels. Today the construction road bear the name Rallarvegen as in "The construction workers road" and is a very popular bicycle og hiking road.
From this view you can see part of this road and with a couple of cyclists on it. We are now about 10km into the mountains with only 72km left. And the rain was on it's way.

This is a domestic cat that probably belongs to someone in my neighborhood, but it spends most of its time freelancing. It has decided it owns my house, and it makes itself comfortable in my backyard.

My apologies to many of my flickr friends for my extended absence, I am a freelance producer for a commercial photographer and for the last several months our calendars (thankfully) have been full.
I will make an effort to re-connect with your photo streams in the coming week. I am sure I have missed out on some great work.
Unless you have been living under a rock in the Disney community you have no doubt heard of the World of Color which made it's appearance to the public in early June. I have been fortunate to have visited Disney World at least 2 dozen times in my life, but had never been to Disneyland.
Well on Thursday, July 1st, I had a down day while I was in California, so I decided to go for it, and visit the park where it all began. I left my hotel in Santa Barbara at 5:30 in the morning and made the 2 hour drive to Anaheim through LA traffic.
I got to the park at opening and stayed well after close, I think I got about 2 hours of sleep before my 8am call time the next day, but it was well worth it.
World of Color was a wonderful show (however, I was a little disappointed given all the hype surrounding it, and my favorite show remains illuminations), being a water show, I really didn't want to shoot right at the edge without a water housing for the camera, and even from my vantage of the upper tier, my rig got soaked, and it wasn't even windy that night. At the end of the show I walked down to the edge of the pier to grab a few shots, only to see the people making their way out, soaked to the skin like they had just gotten off Kali Rapids at Animal Kingdom.
This was one of my best frames, I think next time I would like to shoot it from a balcony at the Grand Californian, or from the edge of the pier, in full rain gear. Cheers, and I can't wait to see what everyone has been up to lately.

Cabin Creek & Hellam Combine No.7
The Cabin Creek & Hellam Railroad ( CC&H RR ) is a freelanced (fictional) railroad set in 1912.
Chartered in 1850, with construction finished in 1854, the Cabin Creek & Hellam’s route begins by following the Cabin Creek as it meanders its way up from its mouth at the Susquehanna river at Long Level in the eastern part York County, Pennsylvania. The route brings the railroad to the small town of East Prospect, one of three station stops along the line. From there it continues to follow the creek valley until reaching the Margaretta Mill (which it services), and former site of the Margaretta Iron Furnace. The iron furnace was the primary reason for the railroad being built, allowing the railroad to bring in raw materials, and then ship out finished iron products. Once leaving the Margaretta Mill and the banks of the Cabin Creek, the railroad turns toward the town of Yorkana where it makes another station stop. Finally, the route continues on to the railroad’s namesake town of Hellam, Pennsylvania where the railroad terminates as it interchanges with the York-Wrightsville branch of the Northern Central Railroad.
Combine no.7 had an interesting history on the railroad. Originally a much longer car built by the Billmeyer & Small of York, Pa, combine 7 suffered heavy damage from a derailment on the line in 1905. The car was rebuilt by the railroad by removing the damaged end of the car, salvaging parts, and shortening it to its current length. The idea for the shortened car came from the railroad’s chief mechanical officer who a few years earlier had seen a similar short combine car while traveling out west on the Gorre & Depheted Railroad. The CC&H still had need for the combine, but not the capacity of the full car. Shortening the wrecked car was deemed an economical way of repairing the car and getting it back into service quickly.
Combine no. 7 was almost always seen accompanying the market and milk cars on the early morning market train. The car doubled as caboose for these runs while also carrying merchants accompanying their produce to market. Combine no. 7 also found use on the weekend trains when extra capacity was needed during the summer. These trains ferried people to and from Valley Veiw Park, and swimmers down to the Susquehanna river.
This model was originally a design by my friend Glenn Holland. He sent out the instruction for this car as a Christmas gift in 2020 to his close friends from the LEGO train community. Glenn’s inspiration for this car came from the late John Allen, who is remembered for revolutionizing the art and hobby of model railroading, introducing countless new techniques to the scene, and creating what is regarded as one of the greatest model railroads of all time. This “shorty” combine (combination coach baggage car) was a model built by John Allen for his model railroad, the Gorre & Dapheted. In addition to being a great modeler, Mr. Allen had a wonderful sense of humor and a gift for whimsy. The shorty combine certainly shows that.
Glenn’s recreation of this car in LEGO captures both the attention to detail, and humor of John Allen’s model perfectly. It was an honor to have received the instructions for his model as a gift.
While I could have built this car in its Gorre & Dapheted dark red paint scheme as modeled by Glenn, I decided to take a different route. I had the idea for a freelanced railroad, set in the area of York, Pa where I grew up, brewing for some time. After some thought I came to the conclusion that the combine would be a great first model for my little fictional railroad. I have been dying to use bright yellow in a model for ages, and so that is what I started with. Adding dark green trim, and a reddish brown roof completed the paint scheme. The CC&H logo for the decals was designed by me and printed by OKBrickworks. I am very happy with how this car turned out and it will be treasured part of my model collection.

Thanks for the feedback guys on my previous photo regarding watermarking photos. I understand some feel watermarks do cause a distraction or redirect attention to that photo whether it is big or small. I think I'll be continue with my faded/ transparent ones. I do want the viewer to see my work clearly rather than my name shouting at them. Aside from freelance work and event projects, I do not sell images or own a photography business. I am sure for anyone discovering some of thr work used on people's blogs, youtube, and even facebook pages with no credit to you feels utterly upsetting. Watermarking itself cannot stop image thiefs however, it only makes it more difficult to edit out captions. Since meta data with your copyright information and EXIF is embedded in the image, it cannot be copied when screen captured and "right-click saved." So that's encouraging to know.
Ok back to the photo haha. A not too old archived image. I rarely have human elements with ym street and cityscape photography but felt this was interesting to capture this misalignment of the person, the beam and the background pattern.
Cheers

Los sentimientos y las vivencias se hacen muy dificiles de explicar en lugares como este en el cual se entraba en tren y se salia por la chimenea, este día estuve raro muy raro posiblemente más de lo que en mi es normal y solo puedo decir que la energía que despide este lugar es inimaginable, solo se puede sopesar cuando uno esta metido en BIRKENAU.
Auschwitz II (Birkenau) es el campo que la mayor parte de la gente conoce como Auschwitz. Allí se encerró a cientos de miles de judíos y allí también se ejecutó a más de un millón de deportados y decenas de miles de gitanos.
El campo está ubicado en Birkenau, a unos 3 km de Auschwitz I. La construcción se inició en 1941 como parte de la Endlösung (solución final). El campo tenía una extensión de 2,5 km por 2 km y estaba dividido en varias secciones, cada una de ellas separada en campos. Los campos, al igual que el complejo entero, estaban cercados y rodeados de alambre de púas y cercas electrificadas (algunos prisioneros utilizaron las cercas electrificadas para suicidarse). El campo albergó hasta 100.000 prisioneros en un momento dado.
El objetivo principal del campo no era el mantener prisioneros como fuerza laboral (como era el caso de Auschwitz I y III), sino más bien el exterminio. Para cumplir con este objetivo, se equipó el campo con 4 crematorios con cámaras de gas. Cada cámara de gas podía recibir hasta 2.500 prisioneros por turno. El exterminio a gran escala comenzó en la primavera de 1942 como resultado de la aceleración de la Solución Final tratada en la Conferencia de Wannsee.

La mayoría de los prisioneros llegaba al campo en tren, con frecuencia después de un terrible viaje en vagones de carga que duraba varios días, durante el que no se les facilitaba comida ni agua. A partir de 1944 se extendió la vía del tren para que entrara directamente al campo. Algunas veces, al llegar el tren, los prisioneros eran pasados directamente a las cámaras de gas. En otras ocasiones, los nazis seleccionaban prisioneros, frecuentemente bajo la supervisión del SS Hauptsturmführer Dr. Josef Mengele, para ser enviados a campos de trabajo o para realizar experimentos. En general los niños, los ancianos y los enfermos eran enviados directamente a las cámaras de gas, las cuales eran coordinadas por el SS Hauptscharführer Otto Moll.
Cuando un prisionero superaba la selección inicial, era enviado a pasar un período de cuarentena y luego se le asignaba una tarea o era enviado a alguno de los campos de trabajo anexos.
Aquellos que resultaban seleccionados para el exterminio eran trasladados a uno de los grandes complejos de cámaras de gas/crematorio hacia los extremos del campo. Dos de los crematorios (Krema II y Krema III) tenían instalaciones subterráneas, una sala para desvestirse y una cámara de gas con capacidad para miles de personas. Para evitar el pánico, se les informaba a las víctimas que recibirían allí una ducha y un tratamiento desinfectante. La cámara de gas incluso tenía tuberías para duchas, si bien nunca fueron conectadas al servicio de agua. Se les ordenaba a las víctimas que se desnudaran y dejaran sus pertenencias en el vestidor, donde supuestamente las podrían recuperar al final del tratamiento, de manera que debían recordar el número de la ubicación de sus pertenencias. Una vez sellada la entrada, se descargaba el agente tóxico Zyklon B por las aperturas en el techo. Las cámaras de gas en los crematorios IV y V tenían instalaciones en la superficie y el Zyklon B se introducía por ventanas especiales en las paredes. Una vez arrojado el Zyklon B se esperaba unos 25 minutos y se observaba en una mirilla la ausencia de actividad, se procedía a evacuar y ventilar el recinto y se retiraban los cuerpos a un sector para una revisión final. En esta revisión se les extraían los dientes postizos de oro, anillos, pendientes u otros objetos y se revisaban los orificios corporales en busca de joyas. Una vez revisados, los cuerpos eran llevados a una sala de hornos o crematorios anexa por prisioneros seleccionados, llamados Sonderkommandos, donde eran quemados. Una chimenea alta expulsaba los gases hacia la atmósfera.
Los alemanes ocuparon Hungría en marzo de 1944; entre mayo y julio de 1944, cerca de 438.000 judíos de Hungría fueron deportados hacia Auschwitz-Birkenau y la mayoría fueron ejecutados allí. Había días en que los hornos no daban abasto y se tenía que quemar los cuerpos en hogueras al aire libre.
Familias enteras de gitanos fueron encerradas en una sección especial del campo. Pasaron por las cámaras de gas en julio de 1944, y el 10 de octubre de ese año se procedió a la exterminación de los niños gitanos restantes en Birkenau.
El 7 de octubre de 1944, los Sonderkommandos judíos (los prisioneros mantenidos separados del resto y que trabajaban en las cámaras de gas y hornos crematorios) organizaron un levantamiento. Las prisioneras habían logrado extraer explosivos de una fábrica de armas y los utilizaron para destruir parcialmente el crematorio IV y tratar de escapar en la confusión. Los 250 prisioneros fueron capturados e inmediatamente ejecutados. Por otra parte, todos los miembros de los Sonderkommandos eran ejecutados periódicamente y sustituidos por otros nuevos.
Las cámaras de gas de Birkenau fueron destruidas por las SS el 24 de noviembre de 1944 en un intento por esconder las actividades del campo a las tropas soviéticas.

Feelings and experiences are very difficult to explain in places like this in which the train entered and exited through the fire, this day I rarely rarely possibly more than my normal and I can only say that this place gives off energy that is unimaginable, you can only weigh when you're stuck in Birkenau.
Auschwitz II (Birkenau) is the field that most people know as Auschwitz. There he penned hundreds of thousands of Jews and there are also executed more than a million deported tens of thousands of Gypsies.
The field is located at Birkenau, about 3 km from Auschwitz I. Construction began in 1941 as part of the Endlösung (final solution). The field had a length of 2.5 km 2 km and was divided into several sections, each separated into fields. Fields, like the entire complex, were surrounded by fences and barbed wire and electric fences (some electric fences used prisoners to commit suicide). The camp held up to 100,000 prisoners at one time.
The main objective of the field was not to keep prisoners as labor force (as was the case of Auschwitz I and III), but rather the extermination. To meet this objective, the field was equipped with 4 crematoria with gas chambers. Each gas chamber could receive up to 2,500 prisoners per shift. The large-scale extermination started in Spring 1942 as a result of acceleration of the Final Solution treated at the Wannsee Conference.

Most of the prisoners came to the camp by train, often after a terrible journey in freight cars that lasted several days, during which they were not provided food or water. From 1944 he extended the railroad to enter directly into the field. Sometimes when you reach the train, the prisoners were passed directly to the gas chambers. At other times, the Nazis selected prisoners, often under the supervision of Dr. Josef Mengele Hauptsturmführer SS, to be sent to labor camps or to conduct experiments. In general, children, the elderly and the sick were sent directly to the gas chambers, which were coordinated by the SS Hauptscharführer Otto Moll.
When a prisoner exceeded the initial screening, was sent to spend a period of quarantine and then assigned a task or being sent to any field of work attachments.
Those who were selected for extermination were transferred to one of the great complex of gas chambers / crematoria toward the ends of the field. Two of the crematoria (Krema Krema II and III) have underground facilities, a room for undressing and a gas chamber with a capacity of thousands of people. To avoid panic, the victims were informed they would receive there is a shower and disinfection treatment. The gas pipes even had showers, but never were connected to water. They ordered the victims to undress and leave their belongings in the locker room, which supposedly could be recovered at end of treatment, so they should remember the number of the location of their belongings. Once sealed the entrance, unloaded the toxic agent Zyklon B through the openings in the ceiling. The gas chambers in crematoria IV and V had facilities in the area and the Zyklon B was introduced by special windows on the walls. Once cast the Zyklon B was expected 25 minutes and there was a peephole in the absence of activity, they proceeded to evacuate and ventilate the room and the bodies were removed to an area for a final review. In this review were extracted gold false teeth, rings, earrings and other objects and body orifices were reviewed in search of jewels. Once reviewed, the bodies were taken to a crematorium furnace or room attached to selected prisoners, called Sonderkommando, which burned. A tall chimney gases expelled into the atmosphere.
The Germans occupied Hungary in March 1944 between May and July 1944, about 438,000 Hungarian Jews were deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau and the majority were executed there. There were days when ovens were overwhelmed and had to burn the bodies in fires outdoors.
Entire families of Gypsies were confined in a special section of the field. They passed through the gas chambers in July 1944 and October 10 of that year, proceeded to the extermination of Roma children remaining in Birkenau.
On October 7, 1944, the Jewish Sonderkommando (prisoners kept separate from the rest and working in the gas chambers and crematoria) staged an uprising. The prisoners had managed to extract explosives from a weapons factory and used it to partially destroy the crematoria IV and try to escape in the confusion. The 250 prisoners were captured and immediately executed. Moreover, all members of the Sonderkommando were executed periodically and replaced with new ones.
The gas chambers at Birkenau were destroyed by the SS on November 24, 1944 in an attempt to hide activities under the Soviet troops.
