With most of the track covered by snow, North Shore Track Services GP9 115 looks like it just parked in line with the other heavy equipment at Laurentian Aggregate in Largo, Minnesota laid up for the winter. This GP9 is used to switch out stone cars here at the quarry for interchange to CN. In the background, a pair of CN GEVO's can be seen loading a raw ore shuttle train at the Thunderbird Mine.

Heavy equipment driving over this trestle during the rebuilding of the trail has collapsed some of the decking. The plywood in the center, which is there to protect the decking from the tracks of snowmobiles, provides a safe path across this trestle.

I got another shot at this location in 2010 but never considered publishing this one. So...here it is.
After a bit of a wait for traffic ahead - and for the dispatcher to finally answer the radio so they could get a new warrant - the CP 6241 and CP 6306 are finally moving down the mainline near the north end of the siding at Harpers Ferry, Iowa. The BAL-05 with it's two sets of GREX belt cars are loaded with rock from the Waterloo, Wisconsin pit on the WSOR. The north end of Harper's Ferry is adjacent to a sand pit currently owned by northeast Iowa contractor Skyline Materials/Bruening Rock Products. The Mississippi River Valley in this part of the world has quite a few quarries and sand pits, thanks to the sandy deposits at the bottom of the bluffs and the limestone and other harder rocks that make up the bluffs and make for good building materials.
The train is passing the head end of a 377 hopper train that has been stuck in the siding for a bit while waiting for three trains to pass - and there were two more trains down at Marquette meeting as well headed for the Mason City sub. It's been busy times on the modern CPKC lines along the west edge of the Mississippi River Valley, and this ballast is being moved to support more of the expansion and upgrade efforts.
As a kid I played in the dirt with toy trucks so how could I pass this going on? Man, they moved a lotta dirt!

Toiling away deep in the Cliffs mill at Burns Harbor is this former GTW SW9. Equipped with remote control, the operator waits for the operator of the Manitowoc Vicon 4100w crane on the left to complete a lift of the dock ladder that was just removed from the Purvis Marine hopper barge in lower left. Once the ladder clears, the switcher will quickly disappear back into the mill, well out of view. Coordination is key in this industry and in only 45 minutes eight slabs were loaded in that barge.

The Heavy Hauler Four Track Delivery Vehicle was initially designed for hauling bulk goods long distances using simple, easy to replace 3D printed components. Developed to be entirely domestically produced on Hibernia, it marks Jiangmen Heavy's first foray into Licensed On-Planet Production.
The vehicle has found a niche in the Hibernian economy for hauling standardized containers. Seizing on the adoption of the HPLS, or Hibernian Palletized Load System, operators of the HH4TDV have retrofitted the cargo decks to readily accept the standard containers, while retaining their nonstandardized load capabilities. As it is currently one of the highest capacity vessels on-planet, it has earned the nickname "Hibermax".
Hibernia is a collaborative worldbuilding exercise between Taysuune, Mechanekton, Dryvvall, Shannon and myself
Towel is to protect me from the dust and the circular saw was used to cut the tiles on right size for these who wonder.
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.
Some of the heavy equipment that use to be used with the ferries is just rotting - would think it could at least be sold for scrap.
We were lucky we could count on the horses to carry our heavy equipment through our trip in the WebValley, highlands of Ethiopia. This afternoon, the light was so subtle, I had to take this shot...

The trees that are being loaded onto this tractor trailer were likely levelled during the derecho that swept through the Ottawa area last May. I spoke with the truck operator who told me that these logs were destined to be processed at a saw mill some 5.5 hours away, in the Beauce region of Québec.

I think one piece frames the other nicely. I tried to show the abstract confusion of industrialization
Sony A7II - Fotodiox pro EF/NEX Adapter - NEX extension tubes for macro shots. Using of a focussing helicoid or mounting a teleconverter ... both are also possible. It's a heavy equipment so it's good to have this mounting option at the bottom of the Fotodiox Adapter for tripod shots. Due to this the lens/camera is well balanced. When shooting handheld, inbody image stabilization (OSS) works great with this lens.
If you are interested in an image with this camera/lens combination ... here it is --> Golden Cutter HMM Star.
The image of this lens/camera combination was taken with the Fujifilm Finepix F11. Tripod shot. 1/5s. ISO 100. 8mm. f/8.0.

WNYP 426 is obviously the biggest piece of heavy equipment in view as it pauses at the gate to go down the spur to Diamond Packaging in Henrietta, NY on October 24, 2024.

Reaching back into my photo archives, I found this 1/48th scale diecast Autocar with lowboy and dozer. Years ago I collected die cast trucks and heavy equipment models. This is one of those models.
