a fair price

Sometimes I think we should change the name from Santa Barbara to Mustard County......
Not the right thing to be allergic to!
A UP empty coal train drifts down the grade through Utah's beautiful Price Canyon on its way to Helper and points east.
Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first
And the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and smile
I dedicate this image to the men and women who have fought and died for us to enjoy the freedoms that we have today.
“This is the day we pay homage to all those who didn’t come home. This is not Veterans Day, it’s not a celebration, it is a day of solemn contemplation over the cost of freedom.” - Tamra Bolton
A power lash up that includes three EMD F45s and four EMD SD40-2s pull Utah Railway's Martin Turn through Price Canyon on Sept. 6, 1985. The train has 13 loads of ballast on the head end trailed by coal hoppers headed to the mines.
I was thumbing through the William Price "Western Maryland Steam Album" book with the intent of gaining some day dreaming time, instead I found myself pondering what it would be like to stand on Helmstetters curve when a big 4-8-4 Potomac class came up the grade. Most of my journey through railroad history (and my photo descriptions as a result) tend to lean into a yearn to see railroads in their glory years. This photo then popped into my mind. After being in service for 2 years, I just started shooting the 2102 at Reading and Northern that summer and fall. I did 3 outings to see the thing and enjoyed all of them. The 2102 is big enough to produce power, but not powerful enough to have a seamless run with whatever train you throw at it. The T-1s were built in house by the Reading company using some select parts recycled from other engines. Some call them "rebuilds" because of this. The T-1s were some of the biggest and baddest engines on the Reading minus the light mallets the road rostered. At the end of steam, 5 survived into Reading Rambles excursion service (with one being scrapped for parts during this time period before 1964). Since then they lived on in various states at various places. 2102 runs up the former Reading trackage into the anthracite region and over the former CNJ branch from Haucks to Jim Thorpe in the present day. The run has various grades, bridges, tunnels, and obstacles. North of Tamaqua the trackage starts a hefty climb up to Hometown where it crests downhill to Jim Thorpe. At mile marker 99, at the searchlights installed within the past 10 years, the train's dig into the grade has already begun. You can hear the beating on the rails from lightyears away, it becomes oh so closely sounding but continues to trick the mind. The bellless crossing next to the signals activates. Lights stream around the corner. Then the sounds, A long, a long, "OSJT, Clear signal, 99", a short, a long. The engine, shooting smoke at high velocity out the stack, thunders at the trees and removes their leaves. The approach lit SB signal lights up, rails squeel, the bridge takes on the weight of the engine... you can no longer hear anything... A static takes hold as the exhaust has produced enough sound to pierce your ears. Its loud but silent, the camera clicks away without a detectable sound. Decibels rise, you cannot hear yourself think. You take the camera down and get the friendly wave, they have ear plugs! The shrill passes and then slowly fades. The rail squeals as the clickety clacks fade back in like a studio mix on a 60s hippy song. Marker lights on the rear observation car conclude the show. The crossing lights conclude their flashing, the railfans scurry back to their cars and leave in a hurry, the signal goes back to darkness. Peace has returned to the Schuylkill Valley.
A trio of EMD tunnel motors pull Southern Pacific's Kansas City to Oakland Forwarder along the Price River at Kyune, Utah on May 21, 1993. This 71 car KCOAF had a pair of SP B40-8 helpers cut in mid-train.

The entry fee to witnessing sunrise at Takhlakh Lake was being massacred by millions of mosquitoes. It's beautiful but I'll never come back at this time of year.
I feel like there is a lot to say, yet i can't write a word.

The price of gas hasn't changed at this station in a long time. It is frozen at 42.9 cents per gallon. The last time I was in Freedom, Wyoming there were two classic pumps here, but one has disappeared.

Nuff said.
NOTE: I've seen some other pix of prices slightly higher than this from other parts of the country. I have to say I was surprised, but on some of the neighbor islands in Hawaii, gas is well over $3.90/gallon, so we probably still have the highest prices in the nation. Yet another perk of living in "paradise".

A fabulous bird's next in the woods along Paradise Pond. Made with the usual twigs and mud. And, in this case, with plastic shopping bags and "special price" tags. I don't know enough about birds to know which one might have been so artistic. Any help with the ID of whose home this might be would be appreciated! :)
I always enjoyed shooting DRGW action in Price River canyon. The scenery was great and the action was fairly heavy. 3083, 3112 and 3095 are westbound with TOFC on June 8, 1990 near Kyune.

The Scourge are like modern day pirates. They fight amongst themselves, yet they still cooperate at times. They trade amongst themselves for supplies they need, and then use them to try to destroy the others. – Jax Turfis
Super lame backstory, but I can't think of anything else, and I wanted something.
One of my favorite scenes I've ever made. Really disappointed with how the FP truned out, though. For the 2014 BrickBattle Games on Mocpages, and the Inspirational Lego contest. Also, this picture is edited some, because I liked it darker. See detail pictures here.
