The Hillsboro Roustabout heads west out of its namesake, bound for the big Stimson Lumber sawmill at Seghers. Once upon a timetable, this trackage was part of the Westside Line that went all the way to Eugene via McMinnville and Corvallis. For a time, the line was electrified as far as Corvallis for SP's "Red Electric" interurban service.
By 1991, this track was part of a lonely dead-end branch that went to Seghers via Forest Grove. Portland & Western took over in 1995, and still operates this trackage today.

On the morning of October 6th, 2017 the inbound BNSF “Kelly Lake Local” is rolling through Boylston, Wisconsin on the Lakes sub just a few miles away from arriving back at its starting point of Superior.
The track in the foreground is that of the BNSFs Hinkley sub which branches off here and runs south to the Twin Cities. ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
Location : Gubug Makan Mang Engking, Prigen
Mang Engking hut is a restaurant, design architecture shown dominated material from bamboos, thatched roofs and natural stone. design that emphasizes local wisdom and a more environmentally friendly and specials all floating huts, standing on the pond.
With contoured land, natural scenery around (paddy fields) green which makes it a comfortable place to visit, and its atmosphere is so soothing.
It was a bit of an overview of the existing eco green architecture.

EMDX 798 and BNSF 2927 have come out of Rice's Point yard bound for the elevators and customers in the Port of Duluth.
I strangely have very little coverage along the 15 mile stretch of CSXT's ex Boston and Albany main between Palmer and Springfield, so finally decided to try out a few new (for me) spots on this gray Friday.
CSXT West Springfield based local L038 is a Mon-Fri local on duty at 1030 that handles work on the mainline as well as the Athol Industrial Track and other chores in the Springfield area. I'd never made the effort to photograph it before despite spending time hunting down nearly every other local freight job CSXT operates in New England. After running east with a healthy train, they dropped their cars on Main 1 and then made a 'big runaround' west via Main 2 between CP 92 and CP96 on the Berkshire Sub. Having pulled and spotted the Sulco Warehouse to the east they have now moved west on Main 1 and dropped their train and cut away to head into the other Sulco Warehouse just east of the Roosevelt Ave. overpass at about MP 95.1 from where this was captured.
The pair of 6200 series GP40-2s of Chessie System heritage are the standard power on all New England locals these days, but in my youth these jobs that prowled industries, yards, and branchlines were exclusively the domain of Conrail blue B23-7s.

Former Bus Éireann AM5 (Alexander Dennis E200) is seen on the Eirebus operated Local Link Service from Knocksedan to Swords Village
Have been looking at some of this years files,and found some sky moods that have not been worked.This was already mostly B&W so I have worked on it as a B&W.
CSXT's D795-11 is westbound on the Hanover Subdivision about to cross Cold Springs Rd in Fairfield PA on January 11, 2022. Lead locomotive 8400 was built for the Western Maryland Railway in 1969 and was originally classed as an SD40. Sometime in the late 1980s-early 90s, it was rebuilt by VMV to SD40-2 specs.

Here's a better view of the amazing paintings down on a local shop by My Dog Sighs.

A local headed down the Mon Sub to a transloading facility in Monessen, PA is seen crossing over the Youghiogheny River in McKeesport, PA.
Union Pacific LDG51B, also known as the Potash Local, climbs the sandstone shelf above the Colorado River near Bootlegger Canyon. The local runs once a week out of Grand Junction.
A lot of pointwork visible in this view. JS 6469 was on local shunting duties when I visited the loco depot at Huang Guo Tung on the outskirts of Shenyang. This seems to have supplied motive power for freight services originating in the area. When I passed by train in 2008 there was no evidence that the depot had ever existed.
Norfolk Southern local H66 is on their way back south to Allentown after making a turn up to Hazleton with their pair of homely SD60Es as they cross the Lehigh River at Glen Onoko, MP 125 on Norfolk Southern's Lehigh Line maine. They are on what was once Main 2 of the former Lehigh Valley Railroad mainline while Main 1 at right is now the property of the Reading and Northern. When Conrail sold the upper Lehigh Line from Lehighton to Mehoopany to the RBMN in 1996 they retained one track as far as Penn Haven and the junction with their Ashmore Secondary in order to continue to serve the Hazleton market which successor NS continues to do to this day.
The LV passed to Conrail in 1976 which continued to use this as a thru route until 1993 and then three years later sold the middle of their Lehigh Line from Penn Haven to Mehoopany (and one of the two mains from Penn Haven to Lehighton as described above) to the expanding RBMN system. Even after that date, however, thru freights operated by the Delaware and Hudson and successor CP continued to travel this way on a route via trackage rights ultimately to Philadelphia and Washington which they were awarded upon the creation of Conrail. Interestingly, after the Norfolk Southern purchased half of Conrail they brought through freights back to this route, and as late as 2015 one pair of NS and one pair of CP trains could be seen here. Alas when CP sold half of the D&H to NS their trains disappeared forever, and then in 2019 NS rerouted their last thru train when the Allentown hump yard was shuttered during the draconian cuts of the PSR era.
For the last five years the upper Lehigh Line has seen nothing but local freights, and north of Lehighton those have operated almost exclusively at night. However a recent schedule change has seen NS running local H66 in daylight on Sundays making a late morning turn north from Allentown to Hazleton and back which was the other major goal of this weekend trip other than 2102 of course!

Montana Rail Link SD70ACe No. 4308 and SD45 No. 382 near Perma returning from Thompson Falls to Missoula. 27 August 2009.
This is a Sagebrush Sparrow, mostly found east of California, but it does look very much like a Bell's Sparrow. Another birder found it in advance of the annual Carrizo Plain Christmas bird count, and it stuck around for count day, for which I'm grateful
BNSF's Cody Local (R-PWR8162-24) with a pair of former Burlington Northern SD70MACs, three loads from CertainTeed Gypsum & Ceiling in Cody, a former Santa Fe Ortner hopper, and a caboose (shoving platform), roll underneath Highway 14 in Garland, Wyoming. The local runs a round trip between Cody, Wyoming, and Frannie (the connection to BNSF's Casper Subdivision).
A pair of Iowa Interstate GEVOs lead a train of loaded grain hoppers east through the small town of Brooklyn, IA along the railroad's Newton Sub. The two units departed as lite power from the yard at South Amana and went to an elevator in Malcom to pick up these loads and bring them back to the yard. IAIS 519, the leader, has the name 'Paul H. Banner' written on the side, a tribute to the railroad's first chairman, who passed away in June, 2024, at the age of 102.
