"Stick" Shilman and Brandon Terrell arrive at "103" in the 900 with an equipment transport for Mill 5/dry sort from town. The 988 log loader could be easily moved by flat car between the Mill Three and Five sites as needed.

At a tiny speck on the map known as Brimson, a loaded train from Arcelor Mittal's Minorca Mine creeps towards the siding where it will meet an empty train heading for US Steel's Minntac Mine. Leading the way is the Illinois Central SD40-2 6251, the last black unit on the CN roster still sporting a white frame stripe.

The Port of Geelong is Victoria's second busiest, and grain transport (mostly wheat) is a major factor. Here a ship registered in Monrovia (the capital of African country Liberia) is loading. Ships like this are often referred to as having flags of convenience. Shipping companies often save millions of dollars registering ships in countries that offer little more than a paper registration. I do like the creative name though with a touch of the classical, "Minoan Courage".

37222 and one of its pals (thought to be 37375) descend from Chalmerston with blending coal for Killoch, near Laight's Farm crossing. Early 1990s.

Hi everybody! Well I still don't have my new camera. The story of my life, right?! Anyways, I miss you all and being on Flickr so I'm posting something from the archives in the meantime. I'll try to be more active on here. And since I start school in 3 weeks, I'll be on my computer daily.

Thanks so much for stopping by my Flickr friends!

;)

Took loads of these, decided on a high key in the end even though I mainly shot against black.

Been waiting for an opportunity to shoot these, had them as a Birthday present last month, seemed like the perfect theme!

HMM! Theme Begins with the letter C

There are already some awesome Power Loaders out there like those from Larry Lars and ninbendo.

I wanted to have a go and try to get a small scale loader close to the one used by Ripley. The leg mod allows for a small amount of articulation.

VWD78 is seen at The Ward en route to Ratoath County Meath with a full load against a threatening sky.

The Great Republic eases towards the Duluth pier on a cold but clear day. The Great Lakes Fleet ship was headed to the CN ore dock for one last load of taconite before the season ends.

The Scorpion Mech-Loader is a competitor to the H-9, equally hard-wearing and heavily built. Unlike the H9's electromagnet, the mech is built with a manipulator arm to grab cargo and it's this arm which gives the vehicle it's name.

UP 7889 crosses Bell Creek leading a CWETS coal load along the North Fork Branch of the former Rio Grande.

Coal loads roll south at Rushville, MO behind a relatively rare H2 GEVO. September 2008.

It loads cargo.

Having dropped off its load after arriving with 6G94 from Bescot, 68023 Achilles heads back through Bescot Stadium with 0D95 to Toton North Yard.

In perfectly still conditions during the afternoon of 16 January 2016, the driver has full control of his locomotive, JS 8167, and its thirteen wagon trailing load as it makes a text book departure, the locomotive climbing positively away from the Sandaoling opencast mine loading point. There is alleged to be four more years worth of coal in the deep pit beyond the loaders, but how long the steam traction can continue without heavy maintenance equipment in the workshops remains to be seen.

I was at the far end of the island taking pictures of an Adelie penguin rookery when I spotted this fantastic backdrop of glaciers and mountains beyond the rocky point where the Zodiac boats landed. We were visiting the Yalour Islands which are in the south part of the Wilhelm Archipelago on the Antarctic Peninsula.

This was one of the trickier landings, as we had to step off the zodiac onto large slippery boulders and navigate up the hill on an icy path. I managed to stay upright though !

The pink and green tones are not penguin poop; they're snow algae.
