Once on the principal passenger route between Manchester and Sheffield as well as a major freight artery, Dinting is now, sadly, a railway backwater. Here, 323237 turns off towards Glossop with 2G51 11:14 Hadfield to Manchester Piccadilly. The date is 5th June 2023.
Amtraks eastbound "Empire Builder" is seen at Portage, Wisconsin on July 16th, 1992 with Soo 4603-Amt 367 and 12 cars. Having the Soo engine up front made it worth chasing....I would think that this wasn't too normal of a practice over the Soo Line at this time, so I'm guessing the train probably needed an engine enroute.
Soo GP40 #4603 was built by EMD as Soo #735 in March of 1967.
AMTK F40PHR 3367 was built by EMD in May of 1981.
This is a set of pictures I was thinking of making since several months ago. I wanted to create a line-up of my sister's and my own dolls, but something different from your usual comparison pictures.
Basic Unit of Measurement: Pukipuki/Obitsu 11cm.
(There is someone missing here, but she's all in pieces waiting for me to body blush her).
Resplendent in it's BR blue livery, with small yellow warning panel, is preserved class 205 diesel 1118 which dates back to 1957. The unit is now formed of two coaches instead of the original three.
The unit is based on The Lavender Line in East Sussex, which is based at the beautifully restored Isfield station.
The railway this weekend is commemorating the 50th anniversary of the closure of the line from Uckfield to Lewes.
I went into NYC this weekend for the giant Flickr meet at the High Line. It was a gorgeous, sunny day which, as photographers know, means difficult light in the middle of the day, so I didn't take a whole lot of photos. I had a great time anyway. I met some longtime photography friends, some of them for the first time, and I made some new friends.
I moved out of the city ten years ago, and the High Line was built since then. Since I don't get into the city often enough, this was my first time visiting the High Line, and I was seriously impressed.
I will have a few more photos to share from the day, but since we went to the in-laws' in NJ right after the flickr meet for the rest of the weekend, I haven't had much of a chance to sort through them. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone else's photos from the meet too.
To my regular contacts: so sorry I've been such a rotten contact recently. I'll be able to visit soon!
Cheese, cheese, cheese is everywhere. Who wouldn't like a tasty piece of cheese on a bread wrapped with love and some herbs? Food surrounds us everyday, but not everyday we can try something different.
As I call it, most, but not all, of the buses coming from North Hills High School, and most, if not all, of them in this line get conveniently stopped at the stop light making for a mighty huge line
'the serpentine line, by its waving and winding at the same time different ways, leads the eye in a pleasing manner along with the continuity of its variety'

Northbound Soo Line train #201 crawls through Kentland, Indiana on July 2nd, 1987 at 10:30 am with Soo 788-787-743, 113 cars and Soo caboose #52. Train had mixed freight on the head end, a block of loaded ATSF hoppers (which was odd) and trailers & autoracks on the rear.
In this photo, the train is knocking the northbound home signal down and will be crossing the TP&W and US 24/52.
Soo SD40-2 #788 was built by EMD in October of 1975.
Soo SD40-2 #787 was built by EMD in October of 1975.
Soo SD40 #743 was built by EMD in May of 1969.
I may not have seen the NYC's Egyptian train, but I got 5 solid years of Milw/Soo trains instead....
PW B23-7 #2216 sits tied up on Shore Line Track 1, along with NR-2's outbound train with empties bound for Plainfield. The 2216 is on its way to Worcester for an overdue 92 day inspection. Big surprise. In the good news department, a string of brand spankin’ new stone cars for Tilcon sit on Shore 5 waiting to head north to Wallingford.
Tracks 1, 3, 5 and 7 are all that remains of the Shore Line Departure Tracks, in the former New Haven Railroad's Cedar Hill Yard. The once sprawling entitie that was Cedar Hill has been trimmed down to a shadow of its former self, with portions being used by Amtrak, CSX and P&W. Copywrite Thomas Schubert 2018.
Notice the change between concrete ties and wooden ties... The RTA seems to be slowly replacing certain sections of ties with the more modern concrete ones.
The Waterfront RTA line opened on July, 10, 1996. Interestingly, this line passes under and has a station underneath the Detroit-Superior Bridge (where the abandoned since 1954 streetcar / subway route is). This is the newest RTA line and is a light rail route, not a grade separated / heavy rail metro route like the red line.

I believe this coach was used to transport fans to concerts booked through "Way ahead records", another brilliant record store no longer around
Parked at the entrance to Northfleet depot was London Country LRC4 (A104 FPL) an ECW bodied Leyland Olympian Green Line coach
For a few miles Union Pacific's mainline between North Platte and Cheyenne ducks down into Colorado before bouncing back north. Here at The state line between Nebraska and Colorado we see a westbound grain train about to enter Colordao with a UP-SP-UP-SP-UP lash up. UP 844 was sitting behind me waiting to head east.
Kids at the finish line at a countryside Naadam celebration.
Take a look at their feet - notice anything?
Naadam is the big festival in the Mongolian summer, where men display their strengths and their buttocks in the three manly events: wrestling, horseracing, and archery.
The events are certainly manly, but the jockeys in the horse races are kids, and women are allowed to participate in two of the events : archery and horse racing.
The legend has it that a woman once won a series of wrestling competitions, and ever since, the costumes that wrestlers wear are open in the front to prevent such a scandal from reoccurring.

This is the Clothes Line sculpture by Brian Callinan which aligns with the clear, distant horizon. It’s reminiscent of a clothesline: a transient place to hang temporary (sometimes dirty) washing and refers to Brexit, together with the positive and negatives of migration. Brian says the piece features “Distress, longing, belonging and remorse and asks questions like: What are we doing? And why are we doing it? “ ///rise.headings.limits #what3words #portland
