ECML services were diverted via Beattock and Hexham on 24 September 2016, due to scheduled weekend engineering work. In addition to the local services and diverted ECML passenger trains, some engineering trains were also routed via the Tyne Valley heading for the worksite. Here 6T53, the 0841 Carlisle Yard – Chathill, rattles over Wylam level crossing behind 66147.

Horizontal comp of an earlier shot.. This was the start of a spectacular display of colors in the sky. I think i prefer the vertical comp a bit over this but I really liked the sky in this shot

With all the hoopla about the Keokuk Junction's F-units being stored, I thought I'd revisit one of the many times I headed downstate after those covered wagons.
On a dreary Santa Claus Special day, I took a pic of the F's with everyone's favorite photographer as he was looking forward.
I miss that guy.

This vibrantly coloured image was taken last year, on 23 May 2015. See what happens to you if you eat too many oranges, lol? The main focus of the trip we went on was someone's property SW of Calgary, a place that we always call in at when we take part in the May Species Count. The Count wasn't till the following weekend, so this visit was an extra one - and extra long, too, which was pure delight! I think we spent something like two hours, watching especially Barb's feeder area for some of the birds that had been showing up. We are always thrilled to bits to see the Evening Grosbeaks and the Baltimore Orioles - the first male Oriole to arrive at Barb's was on 15 May, and this male showed up during our visit. The orange was on top of a fence rail, so this is not a feeder shot : )

Though I'm not keen on feeder photos, I still take them, as well as when the birds are in the nearby trees. The Evening Grosbeaks came often to the feeders, giving us the chance to at least get closer shots. All the bird species were very fast-moving, so gave us a challenge for two hours. The Goldfinch and the Pine Siskins also were quick, but not totally impossible to photograph.
After our time at Barb's, we went to Brown-Lowery Provincial Park, mainly to look for Calypso Orchids, which we did find. Some people continued walking the trails, others returned home. I did part of the walk, but then went back to where the cars were parked and wandered through the forest around the parking lot. Tennessee Warblers sang continuously but were almost impossible to see. I was happy to find one single Coltsfoot plant - love the tight cluster of white flowers at the top of a tall stem.
From Brown-Lowery, we started our journey home, stopping at a couple of wetlands on the way.
I will add the list compiled by Andrew Hart, who kindly drove three of us around for the morning and early afternoon and then sent us his list that he submitted to ebird. Many thanks for both the ride and the final list, Andrew!

Golden Gate
The side of the Golden Gate Bridge from the San Francisco side. I would have loved to have taken a "matching" photo from the other (left) side too, but only bikes are allowed on the path on that side, and I didn't have a bike :( ... I considered mugging a bike rider, but thought better of it LOL!
