To answer the question some of you have raised, this is actually the celling of a shopping mall. There might be more installments of the shots I took of that to come by.
We were walking around on the stone riverbed of the Presque Isle River in Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park on Michigan's upper peninsula when I noticed this young lady discovering she was off the grid. I have blurred her face. But more than the girl, I wanted to give scale to the texture in the rocky surface and the log she chose to sit on.
Standing in for the normal Class 60, DCR Grid No.56091 'Driver Wayne Gaskell' is working 6Z16 09:12 Chaddesden Sdgs -Kings Lynn T.C. at Sedgebrook. 19-11-2021.
Taken with the aid of a pole.
I think this is a small vintage cupboard lock. I lucked out a little as I nearly used this object for last weeks theme as lock and key!
With its original no. 1 end leading, 56049 'Robin of Templecombe' passes Red Bank in charge of the 4Z73 12.44 Carlisle Yard - Chaddesden sidings on the 7 April 2023 conveying empty wagons which have been recently used to convey quarried stone along the Cumbrian coastline from the Port of Workington to Drigg LLWR.
My first visit to this location and not a bad way to open my 'Red Bank' account.
56098 & 56081 are seen on Leicester depot which is on Beal Street, Leicester with the block of flats in background. Behind the Grids can be seen 58023 and a Freightliner 66563 15/1/23. (Taken with permission and in a position of safety)
The sun put more power in that cattlegrid road sign than much of the national grid of Wales has seen in the last few days……
The storm came in Friday evening, there were trees down but by 11am Saturday we thought we were through the worst of it and then the power went down. And stayed down. Saturday, Sunday, Monday and then back up late Tuesday night. Just the electric wouldn’t have been too bad but many homes and farms in rural Wales rely on springs and bore holes for their water supply and they require electricity to pump into the house and as we don’t have a generator, no water for 4 days either.
Back to normal now :^)
The new normal, the abnormal.
Something of a stock shot but it was a Colas 'Grid', in this case 56302, seen here coming off the Shrewsbury line at Crewe shortly after it had left Basford Hall yard with the 10.05am to Pinnox Branch sidings (6K38).
On arrival in the station, the loco will uncouple and run-around its train before taking the line towards Stoke to complete what is a relatively short journey. Short but not without its challenges it seems - a class 37 in charge of this working just a few days before had to send for banking assistance up the Harecastle Deviation, and the locomotive sent was none other than 56302.
Little opportunity to avoid the clutter that now resides trackside on the station approach, so I tried embrace it instead. At least there's some more attractive clutter in the background - the old London & North Western Railway carriage shed can just be made out on the left. The track layout here certainly isn't what it used to be but it's still fairly pleasing in its complexity.

On the open prairies where I live, all you can see is flat land for miles and miles. The only things that break up the landscape are power poles and wild Summer storms.
231219 Not an everyday sight and had to be attempted even if the sun was in short supply..... 56049 + RailVac head the 6X56 10:40 Fowey Docks to Bescot over Largin Viaduct
