60085 heads south along Batty Moss (Ribblehead) Viaduct on the 6J37 loaded timber train from Carlisle yard to Chirk.
Halted on the main whilst away for a loaded Pacific National grain train in front to clear Gap Jct and enter Werris Creek, Sydney Rail Services, 3592 empty log service from Bomen takes in the morning sun with VL352, CF4402 and CF4408 on point.
Thousands of logs litter a stretch of grassland at Petrified Forest National Park in northeastern Arizona. From far away, the logs might look ordinary. But they contain a surprise. The shiny, multicolored insides of the stumps are made of rock, not wood! How did the trees turn to stone? It wasn’t with the help of a magician. Instead the transformation was the result of a natural process that took place over millions of years.
Athabasca Northern SD40 #5232 idles among cuts of log flats in the yard at Lac La Biche Alberta. After the ANY was purchased by CN, the big SD migrated to the Prairie Dog Central in Winnipeg, where it operates moving storage cars to this day.

56113 heads for the main line at Briton Ferry ,having run round on 17/July/2014 with 6M51 Baglan Bay to Chirk Kronospan loaded logs.
After 4 days of continuous rain and cloud and fog it's time for a break... someone, please bring me sunshine... I'll be in the north of Scotland so if you could send it up there it would be great, thank you....
70817 snakes past Turton Tower between Entwistle & Bromley Cross with a diverted Colas log train 6Z38 1210 Carlisle Yard to Chirk on 5th April 2021.
The replacement of a bridge at Warrington Bank Quay resulted in the WCML being shut for four days over the Easter period.
As a result, the pathing of a freight service over the line via Darwen was always going to be of interest seeing as the route seldom gets anything other than Northern units - and the sight of the 1452ft long load with 20 loaded IWA wagons with 1288 tonnes trailing certainly stood out.
The train had run empty northbound over the same line the previous day.
There are very few places along the single line stretches of this route that a reasonable shot can be taken. The impressive 1847 built Turton Tower is one of them as proved by the 10 or so photographers assembled!
Happy Truck Thursday! I caught this log hauler coming to Oregon from Washington across the Astoria-Megler Bridge.The shot was taken from the Bridgewater Bistro parking lot in Astoria, Oregon.
I try not to post multiple images from the same spot - makes a 'stream look naff. Making an exception here because it's a very different photo to the last one - even if it's the same same log :-)
This frame taken much later in the evening and with a completely different camera and lens combination. I think this was when I was trying to decide which system to stick with.
A very noisy base image - was practically in the dark - dark enough to not take notice of the settings... :\

or Come to Papa!
Etta's cleared that log with room to spare; Kahn's doing it the easy way :)

70817 crosses Entwistle viaduct with the diverted 6Z37 Chirk to Carlisle empty logs on April 4 2021. Engineering work on the West Coast Main Line saw the train diverted via Manchester, Bolton and Blackburn.
In these dreary days of winter it's hard not to dream wistfully of fluffy white clouds, colourful meadows, and warm summer evenings out with the camera.
Not exactly arty, this out-take from last year didn't make the cut first time around but with yet more rain imminent, and the need for some proper colour, I thought it might be worth an airing now........
Needless to say it's old friend 6J37 and Colas Tug 60085 heading the 12.02 Carlisle Yard - Chirk logs past Manor Farm at Moore in horsey Cheshire. I'm actually stood by the fence with arm raised waving for a selfie - sadly an errant light cloud running just ahead of the train put a bit of a dampener on it, but at least it didn't spoil the main event.

This building, and its shorter twin (obscured behind) were, apparently, built on a bet many many years ago when one guy said he could build a log skyscraper. It's a bit of a stretch, for sure, but both buildings have stood for decades since, and have become a bit of a local sightseeing attraction. The fact that they are actually appartments which are regularly and continuously occupied by tennants is a fact perhaps not so generally known or appreciated.
Photo taken with the Canon EOS R and RF 24-105mm f/4.0 L mounted to a sturdy tripod. The final image was processed from raw in Adobe Lightroom Classic 11, and in DxO PhotoLab 5.1.2. I did manipulate the image a little to eliminate perspective distortion, and then to add a hint of toy blur effect. It just felt right for this stucture.
This particular log in the Alviso Marina County park gets shot so much that it is probably the famous log in the South Bay, California :-) This shot is from a day back in March this year where I witnessed some of the most gorgeous sunset colors. Here's the other shot from the same day
