A nice set of color position light signals – including one "fully loaded" signal – guards the interlocking at Carroll in Baltimore, Maryland.
The color position light signal was first devised and prototyped near here in 1921, the first installation being between Camden Station and Mount Royal.
As CSX continues to replace the venerable B&O classics over time, it's likely the color position lights in Baltimore will be among the last survivors of this type of signal on the system – perhaps this is fitting.

Newspaper report (2 May 1981) Blue Jays sign Aitcheson TORONTO (AP) Kevin Aitcheson, considered by many baseball scouts to be the best non-pitching prospect in Canada, has signed with the Toronto Blue Jays, the American League club said yesterday. Aitcheson, a 20-year-old outfielder from Stratford, Ontario, is to report to the Blue Jays' Pioneer League rookie affiliate at Medicine Hat, Alberta, in June.
The Phillies made him a contract offer, but being a proud Canadian, Aitcheson had dreams of playing for the Toronto Blue Jays and contacted the club to see if they would match Philadelphia's offer. They did, but a part of Aitcheson wishes they didn't. Looking back, he says if he could change one thing in his sports career it would be to sign with Philly, who weren't nearly as deep at the outfield position, rather than with T.O. "In hindsight, with the Jays having (Lloyd) Moseby, (Jesse) Barfield and (George) Bell, who were all my age, already in the outfield, it was an awful bad decision," said Aitcheson with a laugh. "The Phillies were struggling...so if I had one thing I could do over again I would have been very satisfied to sign with Philadelphia."
Aitcheson is unsure whether or not he could have eventually made it onto the Phillies roster, but he would have loved a chance. "I just wish I would have had an opportunity to hit at the triple-A level," said Aitcheson, who recently had his jersey added to Stratford's baseball Wall of Fame. "
Despite never getting a crack at triple-A or the big leagues, Aitcheson had a successful four-year minor career.
After signing with Toronto, Aitcheson was sent to the Jays' affiliate in Medicine Hat, Alta. where he set the league record for games played and batted .301.
The following year, while with single-A Carolina, he was selected to play in the All Star game.
But Aitcheson says some of his most profound memories in baseball came from his two years of double-A ball in Knoxville, playing alongside future major leaguers such as Cecil Fielder, Fred McGriff, David Wells, John Cerutti, Jimmy Key and Mike Sharperson.
Returning to Stratford after failing to make the Jays' triple-AAA affiliate, Aitcheson finished out his career playing with the Stratford Hillers from 1985-91.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~ The Smooth-coated Otter (Lutrogale perspicillata) is a species of otter, the only extant representative of the genus Lutrogale. The species is found from India east to Southeast Asia, and there is a disjunct population in Iraq. As its name indicates, the fur of this species is smoother and shorter than that of other otters.
Distribution and Habitat ~ Smooth-coated otters occur throughout much of southern Asia, in the Indomalaya ecozone, from India eastward. There is also an isolated population of the species found in the marshes of Iraq. Smooth-coated otters are found in areas where water is plentiful- peat swamp forests, freshwater wetlands, large forested rivers, lakes, and rice paddies. Smooth-coated otters have adapted to life in an aqueous biome, but are nonetheless comfortable on land, and may travel long distances overland in search of suitable habitat. Their holts are within shallow burrows, rock heaps or driftwood piles. Some may construct permanent holts near water, in a layout similar to the of a beaver dam, with an underwater entrance and a tunnel that leads to a nest above the water.
Conservation Status ~ The Smooth-coated Otter is listed as a vulnerable species. The range and population of smooth-coated otters is shrinking due to loss of wetland habitat, poaching, and contamination of waterways by pesticides. Smooth-coated otters are protected in India under the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, and are listed as endangered.
Description ~ Smooth-coated otters are the largest otters in southeast Asia, from 7-11 kg in weight and up to 1.3 m in length as adults. Smooth-coated otters may be distinguished from other species of otter by a more rounded head and a hairless nose in the shape of a distorted diamond. The tail is flattened, in contrast to the more rounded tails of other species, and may be up to 60 percent of the total body length. Like other otters, smooth-coated otters have webbed toes and strong paws with sharp claws.
The coat of smooth-coated otters is shorter and smoother than that of other otters species. The fur is light to dark brown along the back, while the underside is light brown to almost gray in color.
Behavior ~ Smooth-coated otters, like many carnivorous mammals, use scent to communicate both within the otter species, and with other animals. Each otter possesses a pair of scent glands at the base of the tail which are uses to mark land or objects, such as rocks or vegetation, near feeding areas in a behavior called sprainting.
Diet ~ Smooth-coated otters eat insects, earthworms, crustaceans, frogs, water rats, turtles, birds, and fish. Fish comprise between 75 to 100% of the otter's diet.[citation needed] Smooth-coated otters frequently hunt in groups, herding schools of fish together for easier feeding.[citation needed] A group of otters can have a feeding range of 7 to 12 square kilometers. A single adult consumes about 1 kg of food per day in captivity.
Reproduction ~ Smooth-coated otters form strong monogamous pairs. The specific mating times of the smooth-coated otter are unknown, but when otters are dependent on monsoons for precipitation, breeding occurs between August and December. Once mating has occurred, the gestation period is 61-65 days. Smooth-coated otters give birth to and raise their young in a burrow near water, which they may construct themselves or may assume an abandoned one. Two to five cubs are produced per litter. At birth, the cubs are blind and helpless, but after thirty days their eyes open, and after sixty days, the cubs can swim. They are weaned at about 130 days, and leave their parents at about 1 year of age. Sexual maturity is reached at two years of age.

A Centaur upper stage has been lowered into position atop the United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket first stage booster at Space Launch Complex 41 on Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The rocket will boost NASA’s Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security-Regolith Explorer, or OSIRIS-REx spacecraft.
Targeted for liftoff Sept. 8, 2016, OSIRIS-Rex will be the first U.S. mission to sample an asteroid, retrieve at least two ounces of surface material and return it to Earth for study. The asteroid, Bennu, may hold clues to the origin of the solar system and the source of water and organic molecules found on Earth.

As seen at New Freedom, PA. While the trackage is used by the NCRR. The signal has long been abandoned. It was made by the Union Switch and Signal Co. US&S was founded in 1881 by George Westinghouse and operated independently until 1917, then becoming a part of Westinghouse Brake Co.
Update: Turns out that it is actually a Safetran signal. The position lights were replaced by Conrail. This specific signal was later refurbished by an amtrak employee for use with the North Central Dinner Train. It was battery powered at that time. It apparently sits unused, currently.
Fireworks at the Rockingham Foreshore as viewed from the Point Peron end of the beach. Many boats had picked choice positions to view the spectacular show from a water vantage point and the 10 min show didn't disappoint. In some ways the colors from the ocean are just as spectacular as the fireworks directly.
This was taken on my 4h trip onboard the Finnish icebreaker SAMPO this march. Very impressive trip and the crew was very nice. On the right you can see a lot of snowmobiles. It is possible to book a combination-trip where you ride on snowmobiles from Kemi over the frozen sea and then meet SAMPO. Great stuff!

Richmond Castle in Richmond, North Yorkshire, England, stands in a commanding position above the River Swale, close to the centre of the town of Richmond. It was originally called Riche Mount, 'the strong hill'. The castle was constructed from 1071 onwards following the Norman Conquest of England, and the Domesday Book of 1086 refers to 'a castlery' at Richmond.
In 1069 William the Conqueror had put down a rebellion at York which was followed by his "harrying of the North" – an act of ethnic cleansing which depopulated large areas for a generation or more. As a further punishment, he divided up the lands of north Yorkshire among his most loyal followers. Alan Rufus, of Brittany, received the borough of Richmond and began constructing the castle to defend against further rebellions and to establish a personal power base. His holdings, called the Honour of Richmond, covered parts of eight counties and amounted to one of the most extensive Norman estates in England. The Dukes of Brittany became the owners of the castle as Earls of Richmond though it was often confiscated for various periods by English Kings.
A 100-foot (30 m)-high keep of honey-coloured sandstone was constructed at the end of the 12th century by Duke Conan IV of Brittany. The Earldom of Richmond was seized in 1158 by Henry II of England. It was King Henry II who probably completed the keep which had 11-foot (3.4 m)-thick walls. Modern visitors can climb to the top of the keep for magnificent views of the town of Richmond. At the same time that the keep was probably completed, Henry II considerably strengthened the castle by adding towers and a barbican. Henry III and King Edward I spent more money on the site including Edward's improvements to the keep interior.
In addition to the main circuit of the wall, there was the barbican in front of the main gate which functioned as a sealed entry space, allowing visitors and wagons to be checked before they gained entry to the castle itself. On the other side of the castle, overlooking the river, was another enclosure or bailey called the Cockpit, which may have functioned as a garden and was overlooked by a balcony. A drawing of 1674 suggests there was another longer balcony overlooking the river side of Scolland's Hall, the Great Hall.
Richmond Castle had fallen out of use as a fortress by the end of the 14th century and it did not receive major improvements after that date. A survey of 1538 shows it was partly in ruins, but paintings by Turner and others, together with the rise of tourism and an interest in antiquities, led to repairs to the keep in the early 19th century.
In 1855 the castle became the headquarters of the North Yorkshire Militia, and a military barracks block was constructed in the great courtyard. For two years, from 1908 to 1910, the castle was the home of Robert Baden-Powell, later founder of the Boy Scouts, while he commanded the Northern Territorial Army but the barracks building was demolished in 1931.
The castle was used during the First World War as the base of the Non-Combatant Corps made up of conscientious objectors – conscripts who refused to fight. It was also used to imprison some conscientious objectors who refused to accept army discipline and participate in the war in any way. These included the "Richmond Sixteen" who were taken to France from the castle, charged under Field Regulations, and then sentenced to death, but their death sentences were commuted to ten years' hard labour.
As presented today Richmond Castle has one of the finest examples of Norman buildings in Britain including Scollands Hall, the Great Hall of the castle. The keep has a restored roof and floors but is shown with the original 11th-century main gate arch unblocked. This arch is now in the basement of the later 12th century keep which was built in front of it, the main gate then being moved to its present position which was dominated by the adjacent keep while the original arch we see today was filled-in to secure the keep.
The castle is a Scheduled Monument, a "nationally important" historic building and archaeological site which has been given protection against unauthorised change. It is also a Grade I listed building and therefore recognised as an internationally important structure. Today the castle is in the care of English Heritage which publishes a guidebook written by John Goodall PhD FSA. English Heritage provides a visitor centre for the castle with an informative exhibition containing artefacts form the castles history, they also hold regular events there throughout the year.
According to legend, King Arthur and his knights are sleeping in a cave underneath the castle. It is said that they were once discovered by a potter named Thompson, who ran away when they began to awake. Another legend tells that a drummer boy was lost while investigating an underground tunnel, and that his ghostly drumming is sometimes heard around the castle.
Richmond Castle consists of four main parts: a triangular main enclosure, an outer enclosure to the east, a keep at the northern corner of the main enclosure, and a small enclosure around the keep.
