Just a simple portrait of a three unit helper set composed of a pair of SD70ACEs bracketing an SD40-2 at about MP 117.7 on Montana Rail Link's 2nd Sub mainline on the west outskirts of the town of Livingston. The three units boosted a westbound manifest to the top of 5702 ft Bozeman Pass and cut off the rear end at Muir ten rail miles west of here. They turned right back light engine east downhill where a loaded coal train is awaiting their assistance for another run up the grades of the old Main Street of the Northwest.

a frayed rope, a buoy with sticky tape? Oops.
I have often wondered, these buoys are heavy, what happens when you are in the water, drowning, and they throw one of these at you and you get it on the head?
HEEEELP!
Another photogenic set.
Take care, be safe!
THANK you, M, (*_*)

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Colour re-edit of a shot from July 2017.
The slogan on the bag reads "Every Little Helps" but a well placed crease is hiding the 'E' for a slogan that best matches the position I am in right now.
I'm struggling. Having to pack and downsize means losing things that are precious but not essential. It hurts. I know that I hold on to the memories but the objects related to those memories have been such an important part of my life. Having to do this on an ever decreasing time scale while getting breathless just walking up a flight of stairs still and suffering fatigue from lack of sleep. It's all a bit too much and there is not a lot that helps.
I just needed to share. It helps just a little to let it out. My head is spinning with so much to do.
I wish you all a very wonderful weekend of photography my dear Flickr friends.
Take care and take photos.
Fall? Travillion? Northbound? Yep! Even though it was just the pusher, I got my shot I set out to get.
CSX Six-Seven makes the short trip up from Morley to Travillion to help C941.
Dear little Primrose was helping me pick up the last of the windfalls yesterday.
It has been such a bumper harvest year for the apple tree that I am delighted to get all the help I can!
Rio Grande SD40T-2s No. 5349, 5345, 5401, 5342, 5410, and 5406 are coupled into a Savage coal train in Helper, Utah the afternoon of Sept. 2, 2000. The unit train will soon depart for the confines and steep grades of Price Canyon to Soldier Summit.
The helpers from East Bernstadt roll north to meet S539 at Perth, where they will hook onto the rear of the train to shove over Crooked Hill.
In 1999 I made a trip from my house in Colorado Springs to Helper, UT one of many trips I made, since the UP merger,
to the last bastion of Rio Grande power. Seen here is the Helper diesel facility filled with Rio Grande tunnel motors. Rio Grande 5405 leads a six-unit set headed to help a coal train to Soldier Summit.
I could hear the crackle of fire around the hedgerow. I could smell the smoke, I didn't like it. I coughed. My first day out of trainin was off to a bad start. We passed the hedgerow and I saw the tank. It was an American tank, looked like a medium. I don't know though, I'm not familiar with their tanks. We walked from one side to the back, inspecting the damage. The engine exploded. Then I heard a cough and a groan from the other side. I was caught off guard, I jumped a little. I gripped my rifle and peeked around the tank. It was an American tanker, probably 18, on the ground propped against the tank. He didn't look so good, his arm was covered in blood. Then he turned and looked at me and my comrad. He had a big gash on his forehead, brain exposed. I could tell that he was in pain, the look of despair in his eyes - it just got to me. I almost cried. He moved his other arm slowely. He made a motion as he wanted me to go over to him. I slowely walked to him, he whispered, "Come closer." I put my head next to his, he raises his arm, turns my head so my ear was next to his mouth. I felt the blood hit my face when he whispered. His breathing was very heavy. He said, in a faint whimper, "We may be enemies, but please, help me out."
I shook my head, "What do you need?", in my best English. He calmly said, "Kill me."
Racing up to Scotland with another supply train for Tesco Supermarkets is the 06.16 Daventry - Mossend Euroterminal (4S43), in the hands of DRS Sheds, 66431 and 66429. The train is making good headway as it passes Rugeley Trent Valley running some 20 minutes early.
A Rugeley early-morning classic I've been after for a while so I decided to set the alarm and chance the sun. Helpfully it played ball for one of the more photogenic freight trains of the day, even if it is Shed hauled.
The coal-fired Rugeley Power Station, even in its dormant state, still dominates the scene.

A trio of CN helpers navigate back to Pokegama passing over the Oliver Bridge between Duluth and Superior. The bridge also carries Minnesota Highway 39/Wisconsin Highway 105. This view is courtesy of the Bardon Peak Overlook along Skyline Parkway.
Experimental ! never used the video on my D7000, don't know much about it either, worth a try ;-)). Great old track from the Beatles

Sorry I haven't uploaded in a long time.
This took SO long to edit. I've had this idea for a long time and I am glad I had time todo it. I really wanted to edit a cleaner image than I have in the past.
