Birdy couldn't concentrate on the book, she was going on and on about something lurking in the cornfield. I never saw anything except corn.

 

Cornfield is from the delightful creator Dirty Rat.

I bought the milk for Birdy. I am hoping that it might keep her away from the Korova Milkbar that she frequents far too often. It's not just milk in those glasses they serve at that degenerate dive bar.

 

Tractor and Hay Holder is from B-Made.

I have so many things from B-Made that really pull my parcel together. The contrast between the elegance of Dirty Rat and the worn & rusty dusty B-Made creations really makes me happy. It's a work in progress for sure but it's making Linda the calf jump for joy so that's a win in my opinion.

 

The best bit by far is the book that my friend Kat created :) Get to her sim to see a landscape world of pure art-

I found this at my grandmother's house and just had to take a picture of it. :)

From a visit at the Trapholt Art Museum in Kolding, Denmark - July 10, 2018.

Forgot about this.

It's old.

The Story: Two ex CSX SD50's lead a Reading & Northern train through Port Clinton. At some point in the near future, these two are reportedly going to be taking on a new, exciting look.

I posted another version of this still life yesterday, but I wasn’t quite finished with the idea. Today I picked up my iPhone and spent about ten minutes photographing it again.

 

This version is less about the objects and more about the mood I had in mind — a quiet room, an old book, a late hour and just enough light to keep reading.

 

Most of the editing was done on my iPad. I’m beginning to think the iPhone may give me a different way of seeing my still lifes — perhaps a little less technical and a little more intuitive.

Predestination unknown

Abstract geometric image created from shot of office block in Reading, Berkshire UK. Needed some light relief from all those still life images I have been posting.

I love reading, and seeing others immersed in a book brings me so much joy. I recently came across Steve McCurry's book featuring photos of people reading, and it reminded me of all the moments I’ve captured of readers. Here’s one of them.

The Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern serves a small explosives manufacturing plant at Mount Carmel Junction, Pennsylvania. Since there is no runaround track nearby, the crew normally releases the brakes on outbound cars and drifts them down a small grade to get them on the west side of the engine for the return to Port Clinton. Normally, releasing the brakes and a prod with a pry bar under one of the wheels would be sufficient to get the car rolling.

 

On this brisk day, the combination of a sticking brake mechanism and stiff axle bearings kept the car, an empty covered hopper that had carried ammonium nitrate-based fertilized to the plant,from budging. So two crew members and two photographers put their backs into the effort, and the car begrudgingly started to give. After a little momentum was gained, conductor Shane Frederickson climbed up to man the brake wheel. I shirked my responsibility of pushing to back away and take this photo, leaving my friend Dennis Tiley and the engineer, Mike Bednar, to keep the covered hopper moving.

Thank you for your visit, comment, fave or invite, all are much appreciated.

After finishing up at Yuengling 2532 goes around the Pottsville leg of the wye on the way home to West Cressona.

 

Continuing in my subject/slideshow fashion we'll take a look at the R&N around Pottsvile. They serve what I think is still a team track and 2 Yuengling breweries around town. The Pottsville Branch from Port Clinton ends at Pottsville Junction, a switch which is probably technically in Mount Carbon. There is about a half mile spur from there north towards downtown Pottsville while the Middleport Runner (the former Passenger Main as this was from Port Clinton to Tamaqua) goes about 10 or 12 miles to Middleport. About 2 miles up the runner past Pottsville Junction is Mill Creek Junction and the connection(s) with the Saint Clair Runner to Yuengling's brewery at the south end of the old Reading Co. St. Clair yard in Port Carbon. The track to this brewery had been abandoned but was put back in in 2002, a great opportunity as the arch bridges you'll see in this sequence are on the wyes of Mill Creek Junction which was the relaid track.

Large logo 50045 approaches the station from the west coming off the line from Newbury.

Former Reading FP7 902 rolls into the Norristown station with a SEPTA commuter train from Reading to Philadelphia in May 1977.

You find a lot of different little coffee shops while walking through Bilbao. I found people don't stay too long in one place, mostly walking from bar to bar eating pintxos an standing outside. So this woman just reading her book really stood out to me.

Looking to be well patronised, Saturday twenty-seventh of March offers a 2-hour charge to Exeter St Davids with D1010 'Western Campaigner' upon 09.30 London Paddington-Penzance service.
