Took this shot in Longview, WA last year. I was actually back here today, dropping off an empty trailer at Keystone Paper. We haul large rolls of paper to companies that use it to make corrugated cardboard boxes. (8 rolls weight over 40,000 LBS, which is enough to fill our 53' trailers.) When trees are logged, places like this is where they start the process of becoming all the many things we use wood for.

Built sometime around 1900 this log barn was used to shelter the horses that pull the stagecoach from Penticton to Princeton, British Columbia. This was the first stop after the stagecoach left Penticton and the passengers would stay in the hotel across the road. It took four days to travel the 120 km (75 miles) to Princeton. Today, the trip takes about an 1 hour 15 minutes.

Sometimes, they just appear☺

The next picture and this picture are eleven years apart. In this version the doors are still in place but were stolen sometime after 2011.

Another upload of the first log trial run from Aberystwyth earlier this year and following on from the approach shot previously uploaded.
97304 "John Tiley" and 97303 "Dave Berry" are on the sharp end with 6C55, the 19:56 Aberystwyth Run Round Loop to Chirk Kronospan, skirting the River Dovey and nearing Dovey Junction in low light, Friday 29/4/22.
There was a trial running logs from Aberystwyth back in 2005, but strangely, it was top and tailed by MPV's, lets hope this latest trial develops into a regular working, at least the traction is better this time around!

Students have all logged out of this schoolhouse.
It was extremely cold yesterday morning when I took this, so I also quickly logged out in favour of the warmth of home.

The morning of April 15 was a chaotic one for Amtrak's Carolinian and Piedmont trains. The first westbound of the day, Amtrak 73, hit a downed tree on the single track west of Cary, disabling the lead locomotive and forcing them to annul the train. The delays caused by inspection and limping back at restricted speed meant they were stranded for nearly four hours, long enough for the second Piedmont train (75) to get to Cary. Before they could service the platform, 73 had to limp back east to offload their passengers, who would then re-board 75 at Cary. While waiting for the offload to take place, 75 creeps west toward a stop signal at Fetner Junction. One of NCDOT's F59PHs is on the east end of the train.
This is another one that I check periodically when in the area for other reasons. The right side has collapsed considerably since the last visit and the top of the chimney has fallen off.
