Stephenson's Rocket is an early steam locomotive of 0-2-2 wheel arrangement. It was built for and won the Rainhill Trials of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, in October 1829 .................
Found this little bug on my last Biking Tour - the perspective almost looked to me like he is on his way on an rocket ramp to get ready for a lift off :)

I grew up with cats. Even when I was a baby they were always around and I observed early on how different their personalities were. And that is why, when I found out that much of the food I was eating was animals, I realized I had to stop that. Going vegetarian at 13 always made sense to me, though I am not sure why I didn't start even sooner. Why would I eat a cow, a chicken, or a pig if I wouldn't eat a cat or a dog?
Rocket is very different from his brother, Ollie (who I posted a photo of last week) even though they share both nature/ genetics (they are brothers from the same litter) and nurture (adopted as kittens by my neighbors). Rocket is one of those cats that is an observer and needs additional time to warm up to you. Once he decides you are safe, he is loyal and affectionate but he lets Ollie be the charming life of the party right away.
Basically, Ollie is the cat who is instantly intoxicated and dancing on top of the countertops with a shrimp cocktail in his hand/paw while Janelle Monae blasts out of the speakers while Rocket prefers to listen to Tom Waits and think about life and his place in existence. You're going to dance with Ollie first and let him take you up to the rooftop to dip you below the moon but you're going to talk to Rocket at 3am about why is it we are all still here after Ollie has collapsed into an exhausted heap to dream about swimming with fishes and flying with seagulls (I think that's what cats dream about).

The early May air is comfortably warm in downtown Baraboo, as the Reedsburg bound freight (L463), rolls by the former Chicago and Northwestern depot with a pair of good looking WSOR SD's.

The Gallatin Rocket rips through a river curve with a neat set of clouds high above. Leading this train is the rarely shot MRL 250, THE MRL locomotive. On October 31st, 1987, on the eve of MRL ownership, "vandals" set a 3 unit consist up Bozeman Pass at full throttle, of which the BN #6377 was part. After reaching over 80 mph. the train finally buried itself into the earth at West End. Not originally part of the sale, the BN then sold the #6377 to the MRL where it was rebuilt as the #250. It would become, and remain, the only SD40-2 the MRL would own. 34 years later, still earning its keep.
