Ute Generating Station was located outside of Craig on the Ute Spur which itself branched off from the Axial Spur. As it required a long back up move they kept a caboose long after the removal of cabooses on the rest of the UP system. Seen here shoving back on the Ute Spur with loads from Axial. June 1999
Der Fluss hat seinen Ursprung im Chorus Lake und mündet in den Oberen See nahe der Gemeinde Terrace Bay. Der Aguasabon River ist 70 km lang. Er überwindet die 30 m hohen Aquasabon Falls. Der Fluss folgt Bruchstellen im 2,6 Mrd. alten Grundgestein. Es gibt Aufschlüsse im Gestein aus Granodiorit.
The river has its source in Chorus Lake and empties into Lake Superior near the community of Terrace Bay. The Aguasabon River is 70 km long. It overcomes the 30 m high Aquasabon Falls. The river follows fractures in the 2.6 billion old bedrock. There are outcrops in the rock of granodiorite.
Eddystone Generating Station is an operating power station of at least 782-megawatts (MW) in Eddystone, Pennsylvania, with multiple units, some of which are not currently operating.
On December 2, 2009, Exelon announced that it would retire its two coal units at Eddystone Generating Station in 2011 and 2012. Eddystone will continue to operate 820 MW of natural gas- and oil-fired generation.

This image was taken while ascending from Philadelphia International Airport bound for Buffalo, New York. The town of Eddystone is a suburb of Philadelphia.
The coal units were apparently retired, as Google Maps depicts a mountain of coal in the tan colored lot, lower left. This image shows oil tank cars ringing the facility, where as in the Google image it was all coal hopper cars.
I happened to notice this station through the fence on the Queensboro Bridge, and was attracted to the glow of light emanating from it against the darker surroundings. My 50mm lens happens to have a small enough diameter that I could get a few shots through the chain link.
Chicago District Electric Generating Corp. SW1 #3 is switching a cut of hoppers in South Chicago at State Line Generating plant on a gray winter day. The plant has since closed and has been torn down and the fate of this switcher was probably scrap.
Here is something you won’t see from me again.
I generated this image using one of the free AI generating programs online. It was not a test, as I have no intentions of using AI technology to create images. I simply wanted to create it to illustrate a point that is clearly conveyed with the banned symbol I have plastered over this AI generated image. The fact is that elements of this image have been stolen from legitimate photographs available online. The whole process by which AI was trained to create these images was legalised theft! It’s in the fine print of most photo platforms. They have the right to use our images to train AI to undercut the very basis of photography itself. Virtual Photography, Flickr calls it. They should be ashamed of themselves. There is NOTHING photographic about these images at all. And nothing humanly creative.
But just when we think it can’t get worse for real photographers*** along comes the first AI Camera that links to your smartphone. It’s quite amazing to watch these three recently published “reviews” on YouTube, but when you read some of the comments from actual photographers there is a growing sense of horror at what is unfolding, and the meek resistance to it.
It looks like this will also be the first camera that comes with a monthly subscription. This is typical of most new technology these days (remember when Adobe went full subscription model? Now almost everyone does it.). Owning things outright will soon become a thing of the past. Soon all EVs will come with an annual subscription. Remember that saying from Dr Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum, “You will own nothing, but you will be happy.” This is not communism, this is corporate theft – a way to fleece people of all their income. No thank you. I resist! Call me what you will. I don't care.
So here are the reviews of this diabolical "camera".
This AI Camera Beat Canon, Nikon & Sony: Caira Review

By the way Tony & Chelsea Northrup used to be a serious photography channel. Now Tony is just a paid shill for the next tech thing.
Some notable comments:
“Great I can have photos of moments that didn't happen. Cool. “ @JimmySaul888
“Help destroy photography as a legitimate art! Buy this camera!” @odinata
“Tony... ‘pull up’. What happened to you man. The instant process you mention being old and slow is exactly how we learned the ‘ART’ of photography. Connecting to AI is not the core of photography. Do you really hear yourself? The experience of getting to the location, planning the shots on site and making good imagery is a skill and art. I don't really know how people learn the art by asking AI to do it.”
@curtismattingly7505
“In what way does this camera beat Canon, Nikon, or Sony?” @capnjrock2952
To which I added the comment:
“Nothing beats my Rolleiflex. Nothing!”
The AI camera of your dreams. And nightmares.

“I saw a post from Mastodon today of an art teacher describing something happening in their classroom: they can't show middle schoolers any art that they will believe a human made. They, by default, suspect it is all AI. Of course, that also means that none of them imagine that they could create something wonderful. I thought of this throughout your video—not only is it not your memory ... but is it also just teaching people that their own life isn't beautiful and that they can't create anything beautiful? Horrifying thought.”

“This is no future I want any part of. Now I understand why I’ve been shooting so much Polaroid photography lately. Simpler and so much more rewarding when you get it right.” @WhoIsSerafin
*** The effects of AI on photographers are small scale compared to the jobs apocalypse it will generate. Some AI experts (including the founder of AI technology, Geoffrey Hinton) have suggested that by 2030 up to 50% of all jobs will be lost to the machines. God knows how ordinary people will live as the billionaires turn into trillionaires. Perhaps a global revolution? In this social context rewatch the sci-fi movie “Logan’s Run” (1976).

Coincidentally this article was published by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation today:
