The night after being painted, VTR GP38-2 no. 209 sits on the turntable outside the North Walpole roundhouse before going back in the following day for finishing touches. This was the first of eight units to be painted for VRS by Southern Pride Painting. Lighting by Shaun McGinnis

Flowers in a fresh spring light. It never gets old! I know, it's almost the end of the summer, but I wanted to break it with something little different.

I love this time of year where leaves such as these are all shiny and new, so beautiful and fresh. A joy to behold.

The oak woodlands of SOCAL are getting ready for fall.

After spending more than 20 years of isolation, in 2020 46 013 of BDZ Cargo has been sent to RELOC S.A. Craiova (Romania) for a major overhaul. In the beginning of April 2021 the locomotive has been sent back to Bulgaria. Now it is serving freight trains mostly on the Sub-Balkan railway line, between Pirdop and Burgas. On the photo 46 013 is leading a big train with sulfuric acid from Pirdop copper mining plant towards the port of Burgas. Photo has been taken between Klisura and Rozino on 23 May 2021.

A trainspotting video from the Sub-Balkan railway line, including this train, is available here:

After a couple fresh inches of snow the night, the lack of wind allowed it to stick to the trees and made quite the wintry scene as L549 heads back south to Gladstone after picking up cars from Euclid Yard in Ishpeming.

This boar was enjoying the heck out of this salmon. I've posted a couple other photos previously of this same boar while eating this same salmon.

The climate here in Greece coupled with the fertile nature of the soil means an abundance of high quality cheap fruit and vegetables, eg, a kilo of oranges or lemons or grapefruit (around two pounds in weight) costs around one Euro!
