A BNSF freight crosses the Clark Fork at Paradise, Montana, on September 17, 2006. Leading the eastbound manifest on Montana Rail Link’s Fourth Subdivision is former Santa Fe GE B40-8 No. 8610 in good-looking Heritage I paint.
The CHURCHGATE RAILWAY STATION is one of the busiest stations in the city. Train run every minute with clockwork precision. Millions of city dwellers residing in the suburbs alight at this station to get to their offices in the business districts of south Mumbai. An average of 7.5 millions passengers travel per day in the city .. Churchgate is the 5th busiest station in Mumbai.
Here we have 3 trains:
- An S-Bahn just leaving the station Hirschgarten.
- A regional express approaching München Hauptbahnhof.
- And another regional express is just visible mirrored in the glass facade of the Bahnbetriebswerk München Hbf, also known as ICE-Betriebswerk München, which is a maintenance facility for complete ICE high speed trains.

This image is a bit more cluttered with people and objects than I would have liked but then again its a busy railway station . The train station in Toledo in Spain did I feel warrant a photograph it looks l more like a Moorish palace than somewhere to board a train.
The Toledo railway station was designed by architect Narciso Clavería y de Palacios in the Neo-Mudéjar style The station was opened in 1919 . It was designed to echo the historic architecture of the city. The central section is flanked by two side naves, one of which is adjacent to the clock tower, which imitates the style of Toledo church towers.
The station has been declared a Property of Cultural Interest and classified as a monument.

Known locally as "Whalley Arches", Whalley Viaduct is a 48 span railway bridge crossing the River Calder and a listed structure.
It was built between 1846 and 1850 under the engineering supervision of Terrence Wolfe Flanagan and formed part of the Bolton, Blackburn, Clitheroe and West Yorkshire Railway. It is a red brick arch structure and the longest and largest railway viaduct in Lancashire.[4] It carries the railway, now known as the Ribble Valley Line, 21.3m over the river for 620m.

Over 7 million bricks and 12,338 cubic metres of stone were used in construction. 3,000m of timber were used for the arch centring, temporary platforms and the permanent foundation piles. During construction on 6 October 1849, two of the 41 arches then completed collapsed, with the loss of three lives.
The east side of the bridge, nearest the remains of the Abbey, has the only decorative treatment
Alishan Forest Railway is an 86 km network of 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge railways running up to and throughout the popular mountain resort of Alishan in Chiayi County, Taiwan. The railway, originally constructed for logging, has become a tourist attraction with its unique Z-shaped switchbacks, and over 50 tunnels and 77 wooden bridges. Taiwan's Ministry of Culture has listed the forest railway as a potential World Heritage Site.
The Ffestiniog Railway is a 1 ft 11 1⁄2 in (597 mm) narrow-gauge heritage railway, located in Gwynedd, Wales. It is a major tourist attraction located mainly within the Snowdonia National Park.
The railway is roughly 13 1⁄2 miles (21.7 km) long and runs from the harbour at Porthmadog to the slate mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, travelling through forested and mountainous scenery. The line is single track throughout with four intermediate passing places.
The Festiniog Railway Company which owns the railway is the oldest surviving railway company in the world. It also owns the Welsh Highland Railway which was re-opened fully in 2011. The two railways share the same track gauge and meet at Porthmadog station, with some trains working the entire 40 mile route from Blaenau Ffestiniog to Caernarfon.

The Meridian Southern Railway’s road train slowly rolls through the countryside just south of Quitman, MS, as they make the trek south to Waynesboro, MS. The train is powered by a matching pair of former Santa Fe GE B23-7s, with nine grain hoppers and six empty center beams in tow. MDS 4228 was built for Santa Fe Railway in 1979 as ATSF 6371, and MDS 4270 in 1985 as ATSF 6413. Both units would be renumbered by BNSF to their current numbers after the merger. The pair found themselves in shortline service around 2007ish, first on the Nashville & Eastern, then the Meridian Southern since around 2015ish to present. There are very few places left where one can find such relics still in operation and in such good condition, definitely making the MDS a gold mine for a railfan.
Captured on the binary of the ancient railway that lead to cala moresca.
The beach of Cala Moresca is one of the most evocative and characteristic on the eastern coast of Sardinia.
Its waters are of a changing blue due to the plays of light created by the sun reflecting off the sea bed of stones, crowned by typical Mediterranean brush vegetation.
Its name is connected with the Saracen pirate incursions (‘morus’) that for many years plagued this stretch of coast, often plundering men and belongings.

Im Jahr 2009 existierte in Möhren noch die alte Brücke über Bahnstrecke. Mittlerweile wurde diese durch einen monotonen Beton-Neubau ersetzt.
Völlig unbeeindruckt davon, zeigt sich 113 309 mit einem IC von Nürnberg nach München. Damals teilten sich die Br 113 sowie die Br 103 diese IC Leistungen.
Übrigens hat die Lok bis heute überlebt und fährt nun als E10 1309 für AKE Eisenbahntouristik im weinrot-beigen Farbschema.
Soviel zum heutigen Ausflug in die Verganngenheit.
