GLC's high bay where their drop table and crane are located is much different than it was when I was a kid. Recently GLC spray foamed the entire high bay to help insulate and keep the building warm. Until they did this the entire section of the shop was large windows that were cold drafty and not very efficient, also with the upgrade to make up for the lack of sun light they installed LED lighting. Here is what it used to look like. flic.kr/p/s7ACNQ

Rework of an image taken 10 years ago.

 

Back in the early period after retirement, I found myself spending a lot of time in the Derbyshire High Peak trying to make up for the complete absence of any visits there snapping the rail scene during the 1970s.

 

This shot, taken from the top of the short Great Rocks Tunnel, captures a large part of the Tunstead Quarry complex. It's testament to the scale of the operation however that a significant part of the processing plant is out of sight on the right and behind me, and a sizeable part of the quarrying area is out of sight in front of me. The last I heard was that the complex had enough material to support a further 100 years or so of quarrying operations, give or take.

 

Dwarfed by the landscape around it, DB Cargo 'Shed' 66093 is seen here passing the Tunstead complex with the 12.55pm Dowlow - Ashburys (6H52) loaded limestone train. The material being carried would have been quarried just here and then sent to Dowlow for crushing into smaller pieces before despatch to the local distribution centre in the Manchester area.

 

This image has been processed again from the original RAW file using contemporary software to give a more realistic tonal range and better clarity. I've also removed some distracting grain noise. Best viewed full-screen, the original has been deleted.

Former SOU High Hood GP38-2 #5194 hauls a massive cut of cars at the Lafayette East yard with two other NS EMDs right behind it (5/8/23).

Last night I sat at the window for a long time, saw the thunderstorm approaching and felt the tension rising with each fibre.

At the very end of the High Street in Lincoln, just before Steep Hill starts.

The Lancaster and Chester Railway moves the first cut of an ADM grain train east near Lancaster, SC. Leading the train is one of 3 remaining blue engines on the roster, high-hood GP38AC #2866. With the G&O's acquisition of the L&C slowly but surely G&O black engines have started to show up, and more recently new repaints have been getting a fresh coat of black as opposed to the classic baby blue. A sad sight for sure, but the good news is the L&C is growing like crazy and seems poised to only get busier...

A piece of art I created using the Kelpies in Falkirk as my inspiration.

lightning strikes out of a developing super cell thunderstorm in north eastern Colorado.

It's winter on the high plains, and although it hasn't snowed for several days, the evidence of it can be seen in the roadside gutters.

We're looking down over Kingman Canyon as Z WSPSBD8 13L rolls west toward Needles. Despite being a hot Z train, their layover in Needles allowed us to get ahead of them later in the day around Pisgah.

The immediate thought is .. where's it gone?

Here's how it came to be .. with a rather nice picture too!

Dunlin and Curlew Sandpiper.

Where in this wide world can man find

nobility without pride,

Friendship without envy,

Or beauty without vanity?

Here, where grace is served with muscle

And strength by gentleness confined

He serves without servility;

he has fought without enmity

. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent.

There is nothing so quick, nothing more patient.

~Ronald Duncan, "The Horse," 1954

Taken while out tramping in the Kennebec Highlands, Maine. Not sure which town I was in. I plan to spend more time exploring the Highlands, and I'll bring a GPS next time. The old logging roads, hiking trails, and snowmobile trails are numerous, winding, and in many cases, unsigned.
