KCS #4151 passes the classic depot at Mena, AR on a balmy June evening.

Un pit-roig (erithacus rubecula) pels camins dels Aiguamolls de l'Empordà. Estava molt xafarder i quasi ens passa entre les cames, sense cap mena de por.

KCS Oil Load flying through Mena after tackling Rich Mountain.

KCSM 4722 North rolls into Mena, Arkansas at the foot of Rich Mountain with stacks and mixed freight for Kansas City.

 

The Kansas City, Pittsburg, and Gulf laid rail through Polk County in 1896 bypassing the original county seat of Dallas and establishing the town of Mena. The current depot was built by the KCS in 1920 replacing the original 1897 depot built by the KCP&G. Passenger service ended in 1969 with the discontinuation of the Southern Belle.

Having just finished the journey down Rich Mountain the KCS (Now CPKC) business train rolls up to Mena with the mountain looming in the distance.

American Pie Reunion, Harry's Cafe de Wheels Sydney, Woolloomooloo

Photography Eva Rinaldi

 

Earlier this morning in Sin City Sydney - outside the famous Harry's Cafe de Wheels to be precise, the cast of 'American Reunion' (better known as 'American Pie') congregated to help promote the Australian release of the latest instalment of their movie.

Fans and media gathered and most agreed that it was a breath of fresh air to have a movie premiere outside in such nice and hip surroundings, rather than at a cinema, which is the norm.

 

It was a marketing masterstroke to team up the 'American Pie' film franchise with Harry's Cafe de Wheels (which is Australia's most famous and respected meat pie brand... since 1945). Harry's pies are 100% pure beef. Harry's director Michael Hannah was on hand also to inform, educate and entertain the well behaved media pack, and kindly posed for a few photos while we waited for the Hollywood movie stars.

 

Some of the Pie cast has been "down under" before. Pie actress Tara Reid has experienced Australia before and got to know Australian advertising industry legend John Singleton quite well a few years ago thanks to Singo's Magic Millions racing carnival on Australia's Gold Coast, but we didn't see Mr Singleton today so we suspect "Singo" is currently in a relationship.

 

'Pie' stars including Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott and Tara Reid arrived in black limos before checking out Harry's and posing for photographs, with a couple of the lad's even taking in a few bites of pie with compliments like "f*ing beautiful" coming thick and fast.

 

'American Reunion' has been described by a number of media agencies and film critics as the "raunchiest" since the the original 1990s flick.

 

Public thank you to the great folks at Universal Pictures who were so helpful today, as well as to Michael and the team at Harry's who gave us two cool t-shirts.

 

We look forward to our next bite of pie, be it Australian or Americans - whatever comes first.

Después de hacer cumbre en el Castro Grande, nos acercamos al Túnel de La Complacera. Lo atravesamos para disfrutar de las vistas al Valle de Mena, al atardecer.

  

“[...] Excavado artificialmente en la roca viva, bajo el lomo de un portillo natural que cabalga entre los valles de Mena y Losa, en los llamados Montes de la Peña, este túnel comunicador de valles es parte integrante de un viejo camino que fue construido a finales del siglo pasado (XIX) para bajar a la estación de Mercadillo, del ferrocarril de la Robla, el carbón obtenido en los montes de Relloso, especialmente el que provenía del Monte Gurdieta. Sus dimensiones bien aproximadas, 65 metros de largo por 2, 5 de ancho y casi 3 de alto, son suficientes para que en su día permitiera el paso de las carretas que transportaban el carbón. No se ve huella de barreno alguno, lo que hace suponer que fuera hecho con puro esfuerzo humano, y dispone de una especie de acera, hecha con lastras, para independizar el paso de peatones y carretas. [...]"

this is when mena is 16 and gets her powers.....the original mena....was age 12.

Bleak, soulless, and colorless seems apt for this god forsaken town. If you missed why I say this check out the caption with this different frame: flic.kr/p/2mBno3P

 

MSHKC05 hustles through town running 2x1 DPU with a GE/EMD duo on the point and a lone EMD on the hind end. The Shreveport to Kansas City manifest is at about MP 379.8 on the Shreveport Sub passing the gorgeous 1920 built depot designed by company architect, T. C. Horstmann with Mediterranean styling. It saw the last Southern Belle call in November 1969 but somehow has been one of very few KCS depots to survive. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991 it is now owned by the city, and houses a local history museum and the chamber of commerce.
