Job H-37 crosses the 940 ft long St. Paul Union Pacific Vertical-lift Robert Street Bridge with CP SD30C-ECO #5045 leading. I know we've all shot this bridge a lot but it is unique and I've heard rumors it's about to be replaced.
Explore: Apr 4, 2008 #124. Grand Arcade, Cambridge. Immediately after taking this photo I was stopped by security -- "no photos" -- the first time I've ever been stopped in the city centre. The Grand Arcade shopping complex opened on March 27 and many units are still empty (rent is too high). Grand job? Dunno:-)

CN’s R920 job works Keen Transportation on the east side of Decatur, Illinois with a nice looking set of locomotives.
This cairn is one I have regularly rebuilt on each visit......this time, no need as someone has done a great job on it, even providing a seat. August weather....windy, cool, horizontal drizzle....wonderful...not.
Hebden Bridge down in the valley.
My co-workers at Winneshiek County Conservation sponsor a fishing derby on Lake Meyer every winter around Valentine's Day. It's meant to be a fun event for the whole family to get outside and try to catch a few fish. They kindly give me - the old timer - a cushy job of official weigh-in captain, so I get to see every big fish that's caught. Here's a nice northern pike that won 1st place in its class.

Paddington Station
It's out of shot here, but I noticed there was a dead pheasant on the tracks below the open nose of this locomotive. I presume it had become caught in the fairing at some point in the open countryside during the previous journey (when this would have been at the front), but was only dislodged when the fairing was removed here in Paddington.
The water level is high in the marshlands as the Monday morning job out of Utopia rolls east towards Barrie on the tracks of the old Meaford Sub, CN's access to Collingwood.
I did not like this shot immediately after I got it, cursing myself for not shooting the reflection...but looking at it now it's perfect for what I was attempting to illustrate.
Job 2 rolls past Mackamp with four Barns and both AC44s.
This is about a mile off Route 15 down an unpaved "road" that eventually turns into a dirt two-track. It wasn't that much rougher than the paved Route 15, which made me really glad I opted for the truck and not the car this trip.
The KCRR's 101 Job has the Ex-CN GMD-1 tied down at the west of State Line Yard while the crew takes a break after switching out an inbound from the UP last night a working a couple nearby industries.

Some days a little more action-packed than others. 11/19/25.
The Dakota & Iowa's rock job shoves south over the Big Sioux River in Sioux Falls where they will tie the train down on BNSF tracks.
Recent flooding and washout of a bridge in Canton has required them to turn the train over to a BNSF crew for a re-route over the Corson and Marshall subs to take rock from Dell Rapids to Sioux City.

Heavy lift vessel loaded with three cranes almost ready to leave. Just a matter of ooodles of welding to be done.
The Ramsey turn is westbound at Benny in May 1988. CP ran this job out of Cartier to collect logs/pulp as far west as Ramsey at the time. Usually a pair of SD40's were what I'd normally see on it but two big MLW's the 4721 and 4505 smoke it up on this day. Normally this job was out of Cartier in the morning which generally made for backlit shooting but on this day he was set back due to a steel gang working west of Benny. This was the fourth and last westbound I shot in about an hour in this general vicinity as they had backed up waiting for the work block to get over. The first three jobs were hot freights led by big SD's so they saved the best for last and the hogger really has the BIGS screaming as the head west hot on the block of the other westbounds. A rescan.
As one job finishes a cut, another job starts a new cut out. Three unit sets of second generation EMD's are used by CN to power heavy cuts of general merchandise cars to be humped and sorted at the old EJ&E Kirk yard. The sets today include SD40Q rebuilds, SD40-3 rebuilds, GTW 5936, the last SD40-2 in blue paint, and, appropriately, EJ&E SD38-2's.

The high-seniority crew of the Camden Job works Alliance Steel on the Camden Branch. This humble branch once served as the SOO's connection to Union Station, the Milwaukee Road, and other area railroads. When this photo was taken in 2010, the job ran weekdays out of Humbolt, and often ran with SOO power. Nowadays, the branch is switched every third day with rumors circulating about several key customers relocating or closing.
