my buddy Maggie just went through a ton of drama with a woman that bought one of her paintings during a show we had at Art Farm. at one point when the drama got super thick.. the woman told Maggie "I don't think I want to support local art anymore".. super passive aggressive, which is really common in Seattle.
I had to borrow the phrase.. I love it!!

This species reliably breed in this part of Saskatchewan ( as do the adjacent posted species , the Upland Sandpiper)

I was out to SASK for a Magee family reunion (followed by a week long visit with Dad)
Here was getting a tour around on a Razor by my cousin John Magee
A former Wisconsin Central GP40 was switching the glass recycling building in Burlington a decade ago. Really. Over ten years ago.
That just isn't right. I miss that railroad.
A lot of rain again lately. I went out with the intention of photographing this little fall and produce a monochrome image, which I did. However I also like the colour version
Following the cut through the sand hills made by the Middle Loup River, westbound empties wait for permission on to Alliance. The train is stopped at Seneca, NE and the Stable Productions Exotic Animal Ranch is in the background. Home to zebras, water buffalo, elk, reindeer and other exotics, the only thing from out-of-town I caught in the frame was a Kansas City Southern SD70ACe.
Pan Am Railways local BO1 is seen switching out Rousselot in this shot looking east on the South Reading Industrial Track at Allens Lane crossing. MEC 505 is an unrebuilt sister to the MBTA unit in the previous post having been built by GMDD in Jul. 1974 as CN 9470.
This customer is the only reason there is still freight service on the Eastern Route main and on this last branchline in the northern suburbs of Boston.
Rousselot is the worldwide leader in gelatin production and has a dozen other plants around the world. This particular facility was owned by Eastman Kodak until 2012, although manufacturing has taken place on this site since 1812 when a glue factory opened here.
Kodak used the plant primarily for making a very pure gelatin used in photographic film, but the market for that has dwindled with the emergence of digital cameras. As recently as 2007, 95 percent of the gelatin it produced went toward film, but by 2011 that had been reduced to a 50-50 split between gelatin for film and for other products. During the last 10 years, the facility's production has also decreased dramatically, going from about 19 million pounds of gel in 1999 to 2.75 million pounds at the time the plant was sold.
However the shift from film pharmaceutical products has led to increased production in recent years and more inbound raw materials (bone chips and acid) arriving by rail.

BNSF's Sealy 191 Job takes a Cut of Boxcars from Cat Spring back to the Yard in Sealy. Pulling the Local today is BNSF 1935, Built in January 1979, and BNSF 1681, built in May 1973.
A short IAIS train heads south from Bureau Junction, IL. The Putnam elevator is visible in the distance.
This yard job ( I72 ) got RIGHT to work in La Crosse. We saw them roll east past the depot as lite power at 9:29, and just 14 minutes later, I photographed them pulling out of the west end of the yard with this local. They'd make their way across the river as soon as another local, powered by the CP 6246 would come in from the Wisconsin side.
Here, they're seen crossing Liberty St. with an apparently-shuttered MTU bus stop on the left. MTU's system map can be seen here ( chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.cityoflacrosse.org/Home/ShowDocument?id=834 ), and Liberty St. is somewhere between the 5 & 6 routes.

I just love a classic Class 1 branchline local and can't get enough of this scene.
CSXT's Framingham based L004 (old B724) has dropped their train on the at MP QBU28.7 on the Fitchburg Branch and are shoving down the weed choked spur leading to Safety Kleen. This location is known as Marlborough Junction for the 2 mile branch off this branch that once led northeast into Marlborough Center. Abandoned by the New Haven in 1966, the approximately 800 ft into Safety Kleen that they are now now traversing is all that remains of the branch.
To learn much more about this classic traditional branch line refer to the earlier posts.

A CP local job with GP38AC 3002 and GP20C-ECO 2267 is cooling its heels at CP's Twin Cities / Shoreham Yard terminal. Minneapolis MN 9/27/2023
Montana Rail Link GP9 No. 113, built Northern Pacific 291 in Feb. 1957, leads MRL train 641, the Livingston - Helena local at Spokane Creek Road in Louisville, Montana the afternoon of October 10, 1993.
Resting for the weekend, the pair of SD40-2's that work BNSF's Sealy Local are tied down in the small yard at Sealy, about 50 miles west of Houston. The Sealy Local is a M-F job that runs from Sealy down to Booth and returns, switching various customers along the way.
BNSF 1914 was built as BN 6333 in February 1972. Despite receiving a BNSF patch in 2000, and a BNSF number about 10 years later, this locomotive's original BN number can still be seen in faded paint on the long hood.
