With a fresh crew from Pearl Yard, I-DAAT blasts east through Rankin. The massively cleared ROW is pretty signature KCS from what I can tell.
On 2nd October 1999 4803 and 4916 lead the preserved Southern Aurora set on a Rail Transport Museum tour between Weethalle and Rankin Springs
CPKC LL77, the Rankin Turn, departs High Oak Yard with the usual string of Autoparts boxcars in tow for General Motors. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure since this was taken, the General Motors warehouse east of here no longer receives cars, so getting this job with the autoparts was a nice way to end the trip. 1-14-25
Union Pacific's South City Switcher rumbles down Rankin Street after several trucks hurried out of their way. This local is the last freight job to run to San Francisco, and generally does not run to Pier 96 more than twice a week, though they are on duty every day. On September 8th, five GP's were needed to bring a heavy mud train up the grade to Caltrain. Also take note of the disgruntled clown advancing towards my camera to investigate why someone would take pictures on a public road.
Rankin's Grocery originally housed a store and a gas station in a rural community within Anderson, sc. Currently the building sits amongst subdivisions and busy roads used solely as a means to connect us to the past.

Welcome to the seventh annual Free Range at The Old Truman Brewery, London. This is Europe's largest graduate art and design show with FREE ADMISSION! This is the hottest way to discover new creative talent. Over the eight week period, thousands of students from the UK’s top art and design colleges will exhibit their work, giving you the perfect opportunity to talent scout for the next Tracey Emin or Rankin. Free Range was set up to showcase the works of budding designers and artists to both public and potential employers alike, giving students the best opportunity to promote their work. Each year the show has increased in size and popularity, making it a destination point for thousands of Londoners and lovers of visual arts. Over 100,000 people visited this free-entry show last year, putting it in the same league as one from say, The Royal Academy of Arts or the Victoria & Albert Museum. In addition to the events, the work of thousands of exhibitors is showcased in the official Free Range catalogue and website

During a rare streak of clear nights, I was out with both telescope setups collecting data. On two of those nights, to my surprise, the aurora put on a great show. Unfortunately, I only had my phone with me, and even if I’d had my camera, I wasn’t in the best location to capture it — so I missed out.
But, the aurora decided to make an appearance again the following night. With the moon out, I wasn’t planning to set up my scopes, so instead I packed the camera and headed to a new spot I’d found earlier that day on Google Maps. The moonlight and a few scattered clouds made me a bit unsure at first, but I ended up getting lucky. The foreground picked up just the right amount of that usually unwanted moonlight, and a layer of fog in the distance added a bonus I didn’t even notice until editing.
The aurora itself turned out better than expected, but the real highlight of the night was a couple of beavers hanging out under the bridge I was shooting from. They definitely weren’t thrilled that I was there—every so often one would slap its tail on the water. If you’ve never heard it, it sounds like someone throwing big rocks into the river. Being alone in a new location, it made my heart jump every time.

First up;
The Conapaira Hotel in the middle of town -- Faced with the prospect of a town with no beer, residents in several regional New South Wales towns have banded together to buy their local pub. Increasingly, it is locals who are buying in, to preserve their town's only meeting place. The Conapaira Hotel is one such case, in the Southern NSW town of Rankins Springs. Its only pub closed 18 months ago, prompting locals to buy in. "It meant everything to the town, it was a meeting place for everyone to gather," new owner Stuart Vearing said."You didn't see anyone if the pub was shut. It was a very lonely place in Rankins Springs."
Secondly;
The unusual scalloped shape of the concrete silo (Type A191 ~ 19,100 tonnes capacity) built in 1964 on the Bardmedman to Rankins Springs rail line; just on the outskirts of town, but it looks to be serving the locals well though.

The morning local out of Jackson, rips east for Rankin with gas for Messer and NexAir Carbonic. It was a relief to spend time in these parts and still have solid KCS sets.
