To continue the theme of photographic experimentation; this is a portrait of Margaret who runs our local corner shop, and has done for her whole working life. It's a bit of a landmark pic for me as it's the first time I've actually managed to ask a stranger if I can take their picture. I'm really pleased with the result and hope to maybe do a series on local people and services and the degree to which they are being squeezed out by mass-market capitalism.

Many thanks for taking the time to look :)

Some of the typical for the time Burlington Northern local power sits out the weekend at Rochelle in 1995.

 

Within a year, the merger with Santa Fe would transform the motive power, and not for the better. Still, it was nice while it lasted.

Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park. The colors in Yellowstone's hot springs vary with the temperature of the water and the colonies of microorganisms (algae, bacteria) that thrive at that temperature.

The Valpo local leaves Chicago in June of 76.

Today on my lunch break I nipped down to the Water Gardens, in search for the local celebrity Kingfisher. After a little patience the little fella made a brief appearance. I got very lucky with the place he chose to perch.

 

I might have to go down town again tomorrow to see if I can improve on this and perhaps (if I'm lucky) get a shot with a fish in his mouth :-)

I was surprised by the sun reflecting in the pond because the sun was behind me. It was reflecting off of the windows of a house with many windows overlooking the pond. so, it's a double reflection.

The day before I caught this pair in better weather on G010, they were working local Y106. Seen here with 10 cars in tow, the two ex Conrail units make easy work of the short train working through the dip at CH 147.

I guess anything is local power to CN as a GEVO is the lone engine bringing L533, a six car local, north through New Haven, MI. That depot was built in 1859 by the Chicago, Detroit, and Canada Grand Trunk Junction Railroad on their path to link Detroit with Port Huron. The Grand Trunk Western ended passenger service here in July 1954. By 1990, GTW was looking to tear the depot down, but a community group known as "Save Our Depot" managed to raise money and save the depot, converting it into the New Haven/Lenox Twp. Historical Society.

Montana Rail Link's Helena Local with a matching pair of SD40-2XR's threads its way eastbound along the Missouri River and through Lombard Canyon on a gorgeous summer afternoon. The local would normally traverse the canyon in the morning, but work windows had the local departing Helena in the afternoon. There are few places I would rather spend an afternoon than at this spot on a beautiful Spring, Summer, or Fall afternoon.

CSXT Middleboro based local B727 (now officially known as L007) led by GP40-2 6237 (blt. Feb. 1979 as BO 4335 in Chessie System paint) and two sisters are switching on the Myles Standish Industrial Lead. They will spot one reefer at Americold and pull one from Reinhart Foodservice at the end of track before coming back here to work the busy New England Waste Disposal transfer station whose lead track is in the foreground. This branch is accessed from Attleboro Junction at MP 8.6 on the Middleboro Secondary a bit over a half mile behind me here.

 

The Middleboro Sub is strange in that it is owned by MassDOT and dispatched and maintained by Mass Coastal, but CSX still operates it and serves the customers as the direct corporate successor of CR, PC, NH, and all the way back to the Old Colony Railroad. In fact this particular segment of line here on the Myles Stabdish was opened in 1836 by OCRR predecessor Taunton Branch Railroad making it one of the oldest rail routes in New England. Becoming a mainline for the Old Colony it survived as a secondary through route under New Haven aegis seeing its last passenger train pass shortly before the connection with the shoreline was severed at Mansfield in 1955 to make way for a highway grade separation project.. The tracks into Mansfield center lasted until about 1966 for freight service served from this end, but then were abandoned leaving only the present 1.5 mile stub still in use today up to the large industrial park.

Sometimes the nicest little things are right under our noses.

Have a good weekend everyone! :)

Another shot at Franklin St similar to the one I took from the same perspective a few weeks ago. I was able to get the driver in better focus this time.

The scene at dog patch in Avila Beach, a paddle-out for a local surfer.

 

This is a Hawaiian funeral tradition that has been adopted by mainland surfers to honor and say their goodbyes to our local surfers.

 

Overhead view of a paddle-out :

When I paddled-out for my colleague and surfer friend, it started like this one, with a semi-circle of surfers standing in front of our long boards. Photos were taken, then we broke apart and paddled out past the swell where we formed a circle on our boards and joined hands.

 

There we said our last goodbyes to Richard, I released his ashes into the ocean. Then we spread out 100 orchids over the area.

 

A simple paddle or surf back to shore and the ceremony was concluded.
