Well not quite..........
Exeter Central's Dispatcher has just seen off GWR's Sprinter unit 150265 working the 9.55pm to Exeter St Davids (2E57) station, about a half a mile down the hill. The unit had arrived into platform 3 a few minutes earlier from Barnstaple, at which time it became an empty stock working (5E57) as it transferred from platform 3 to platform 2.
With the 9.,55pm terminating at St David's the temptation is to think it will then head for the stabling point for a night's rest. Apparently not - it then becomes the 10.31pm to Exmouth (2F51), so once again passing through Central station.
There's still a couple of hours of work left for the Dispatcher too - the last scheduled train on this day is the late evening Waterloo - Exeter St David's, due off at 11.58pm. With luck it will be 'locked doors' around midnight!

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.

There is quite a difference in winter versus the warm months in observing the eating habits of pheasants. In the summer time unless you are out very early in the mornings or happen to catch them searching for bits of gravel to serve as grit to help their digestion, pheasants often are more hidden as they seek things to eat. They normally have a menu with more entries on it than they do during the winter.
The phrase “scratching out a living” goes all the way back to the 14th-15th centuries when in the older farming communities the farmers “scratched” the land using more primitive tools.
By the 18th-19th centuries, the use of the phrase gained uses beyond that of farming to include anyone who was barely making ends meet in their day to day struggle.
Jump ahead until today and the phrase applies to a broad spectrum of normally physically hard, low paying jobs or an unstable work life.
I grew up in an era when there were only a few government help agencies and can well remember my folks talking about people around them during the Depression and beyond who spent many years on community “poor farms”.
Poor farms were quite prevalent at one time in the US and folks who were unable to work due to age, disability or other factors were housed and fed in exchange for helping to produce food and maintain a farm. Local governments ran the farms as they were considered a cost-effective way to care for the needy rather than simply doling out monies to individuals.
It carried negative connotations for participants, particularly because they were labeled “inmates.”
Poor farms gradually petered out by the middle of last century with many in Minnesota closing in the 1930s due to government programs starting up such as Social Security in 1935 and the growing prevalence of nursing homes.

#legoDcbrickscontestforthewin
This was built for DCbricks contest. (Got full conned and never got my prize hmmm)
I've wanted to do this build for a while now, and having the chance to possibly win a prize was what motivated me to finally build this. I've tried to be as accurate to the show as possible and I think I have done a pretty good job of doing that. There are only a few things that I'm not too happy with and that is that it feels somewhat bare in the front and the floors not black like it is in the show, which is due to the fact that I just don't have enough black pieces to cover that amount of space.
. I'll release some closeup detail photos tomorrow as Its somewhat hard to appreciate some of the smaller details in this moc.
Edit was done by Dayton, link to his stream- www.flickr.com/photos/113172675@N06/
Sorry for the inactiveness over the past month, I've been busy working on another Moc (Hint, its Apoc) which has occupied most of my time.
Comments are greatly appreciated :)
-Thanks Tristan
After grabbing shots of the Rover on the way to the gravel pit east of Dexter, I heard a remote switch get lined at Earlham. It wasn't until I was shooting it doing it's work that it clicked that there was another train in play... I heard another horn in the distance while I was watching the river do it's thing.
Shortly after that, the motor came into view and would pick up the cars that they took out of the house track. I stuck around long enough to catch the departure to grab it coming by the switch position indicator signal in Earlham before heading to points East.
Highlighted by it's own reflection. For those who live in the Carson/Eagle Valley corridor, Job's Peak is a touchstone sight.

A photo from inside Matthew Edel's Blacksmith Shop in Haverhill, Iowa.
At the top is a homemade "job clock" which was used to track the amount of time the blacksmith spent on different jobs each day. Positioned above his small desk, he could then apply the appropriate billing to his records at the end of the day.
German immigrant Matthew Edel owned this shop from 1883 until his death in 1940. In 1884, Edel was one of 2,100 blacksmiths in Iowa.

I took this shot last fall in the Telluride area. When I was traveling for my job I would drive by this pond and always thought that if things were just right it might make a great image. I wish I would have been here a little earlier, but I was pleased with the brilliant colors and the wonderful reflection.
This is a private lake, but there is a good pull off on the highway easement.
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. The older I get the more I reflect about life in general. September is the month that my family members choose to die, so each September I think about all of my ancestors that have gone before me and especially my daughter that left us too young, I guess if I had to choose I would choose September too.
Thanks for looking and as always I love your comments,
Susan
El Nino has caused a significant amount of rain not usually seen in this area. Because of this, many farmlands were flooded after some recent rains. Job's Peak can be seen in the distance as the tallest peak in the valley.

Chrysler badge and grill, Taniwha Daffodils, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
We were down at Taniwha Daffodils in Central Hawke's Bay last weekend, and the local Vintage Car Club happened to be there as well. So I took the opportunity to get a few shots of the cars, as well as the daffodils.
When I look at some of the design work that went into the classic lines on older cars, I can't help but think that somewhere in a design studio was someone whose job it was to design these things. Seeing them built and driving around must have given a fair bit of job satisfaction!

the Z train just got onto IHB rails, when they took this YPRYC-09 as well. Somehow fitting their plans better, the harbor held the Z train back and put this job for Yard Center around him, passing a tall LED "dwarf" that does nothing more than govern movement off an old industrial spur that was storing a piece of MOW equipment. A much taller signal off to the right governs movement off the BN's connection from their Chicago Subdivision that comes down from nearby Congress Park. LaGrange, IL.

After my experience of the picture"One Day Time lapse", which was composed of 1500 photos, I decided to come back in a "Another Milky Way" composed of 5000 photo taken within 48 hours. I said earlier in an interview with a foreign magazine that I always try to show natural things as abnormal, I mean, not because it is irrational, but to show how great it is.
If you have any question, please write it in a comment, and I will be happy to help you all!

بعد تجربة صورة "فاصل من الزمن" التي كانت تتكون من 1500 صورة، قررت ان اعود بصورة "درب آخر للتبانة" وهي عبارة عن 5000 صورة تم التقاطها خلال 48 ساعة. قلت سابقاً في لقاء مع احدى المجلات الاجنبية بأني احاول دائماً أن اظهر امور طبيعية تبدو بشكل غير طبيعي، اعقب على ذلك، ليست لانها غير منطقية بل لأظهار مدى عظمتها.

There are a lot of photographers don't know what does mean photograph many photos during a certain period of time .. The question is: Are all the 5000 images which taken during the 48 hours contains the same content found in the last picture?... The answer is simply no! .. The sun will shine in a time and sets at a time, and the moon as well and this means that part of the images does not contain the moon or the sun and at the same time when the photographer chooses a particular time for photographing the Milky way certainly in time with no existence of the moon or the sun. Overall, the photographer will receive a certain number of images for several moments (sunrise, sunset, moon, stars, etc.) for a full day or two days of photographing on one point or several connected points to be merged all together at the end. So, 5000 doesnt mean 5000 images overlayerd .. If you just overlayer it you will get NOTHING .. So i pick up the best momments (sunset, moving of the moon in 6 places, and the milky way, ) other pictures i use all of them to get the color of full day .. If someone thing its a big number, fine, but i like to capture big numbers of images, i have fun with it .. Summary of speech: Big nummber of images doesn't mean all the time "TIMELAPSE" and the Stars are lines or some poeple asked me about the disapperd 4994 moons in the picture. There are those who pick up a large number of images for a certain period of time to document the stages of one phase(exp. one day), like me, for example ..

Bob, Chris, Will, and Trainmaster Pam were all on the CP local job this afternoon. On the list was picking up UPY 3005 & UPY Slug 3006, and these DM&E cars. The mother-slug came from Relco off the ANPC transfer track. Moravia, IA 6/19/2015.
Plying the rails of Union Pacific’s former Ord Branch, Nebraska Central’s Ord Job plods east along the bank of the North Loup River near Scotia, NE.
