The Port of Royal Slope operates about 20 miles of Milwaukee Road's former Pacific Extension from Othello west to the junction of the six-mile Royal City branch. The track has only been operating for a few years and traffic is generally light and sporadic so far.
Here, a pair of SD45s lead an eastbound train past the old Milwaukee Road substation at Taunton, Washington. Othello marked the beginning of electrification on the Milwaukee Road to Tacoma and Taunton was the first of eight substations on this 216-mile segment of electrified mainline.

We are an Easter people,
hallelujah,
the angel reassures us that life is ...
out in the garden,
we are not alone
winter is over
and the crocus
has come again.
[Glenn Peirson in I am Keats as you are]
thinking of you all and wishing I could be in touch more fully....
May the Lord of lords
and the Hosts of hosts,
resurrect your spirits today and fill you with His Holy presence.
Happy Easter Sunday Friends!
Thank you for the most kind favs and comments.
I came across this when I was cleaning up my Photostream. I posted it three years ago, but only posted it in a few groups. My computer is down which means I won’t be working on any new images, so I thought share this while I wait for my new power supply.
Oh what a glorious day! Today is a day that we remember Jesus rising from the dead, the grave could not hold His body and on the third day He rose again as He had said He would. Today is a day of celebration and remembering as we look back on what our beautiful Savior has done for us. He has set us free from the power of sin and death! Our old self was crucified with Christ and we are resurrected with Christ and given new life! We were once dead in our trespasses and sin, but Jesus being rich in love and mercy willingly offered His life as a ransom for us! He took on our sin and bore the full wrath of God that we rightfully deserved to receive as punishment so that we could be forgiven by His blood that was poured out. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice, He was the only One who ever lived a sinless life and could make final atonement for our sins. This is the best news we could ever hear, our sin has been forgiven and we have been made right with God because of what Jesus has done for us! If you have not yet received Jesus, I plead with you, do not waste another day living in your sin; repent of your sin and come to Jesus, ask Him to flood every part of your life. He will transform you and make you a new creation giving you new life free from the power of sin and death that hold you captive.
It is situated in Veliko Tarnovo, a city in the central part of northern Bulgaria which served as the capital of the Second Bulgarian Empire (1185 – 1396) and the home of the Bulgarian Tsars from that period.
Veliko Tarnovo became the capital of the Second Bulgarian Empire in 1185 AD, after the uprising of the Bulgarian brothers Asen and Peter. It was a revolt of the Bulgarians living in the Byzantine Empire and was caused by an increase of the imperial taxes that led to resurrecting the independent medieval Bulgarian state conquered by Byzantium in 1018 AD.
After creating the new Empire, the brothers made Tsarevets the main fortress and it was considered the most impregnable and the most important one in Bulgaria, often compared with Rome and Constantinople in magnificence.
However, in 1393, Tsarevets was conquered by the Ottoman forces and burned down. The restoration of the fortress began in 1930 and was completed in 1981, in honor of the 1300 anniversary from the establishment of the Bulgarian state (681 AD).

Colas Rail's 56113 is pictured idling at the Ravenstruther rail terminal on a cold morning while it's wagons are loaded with stone from the nearby Cloburn Quarry. This was the first train to be loaded here in almost 10 years following the collapse of Scottish Coal in April 2013.
Ravenstruther once hosted a rapid loading tower for exporting coal to power stations in Scotland and England. The site was owned and operated by Scottish Coal until their collapse in April 2013. The loader was demolished in 2016 and the site has lay dormant since.
The Cloburn Quarry Company - suppliers of red granite for various uses including railway ballast - expressed interest in loading aggregate products here a few years ago. SIte preparations have been underway for some time and they finally purchased the site from Hargreaves Land in October 2021 prior to commencing operations today.
The train will spend the rest of the day stabled in the terminal prior to departing to Carlisle on Friday 03/12 - hopefully the first of many loaded departures from this revived terminal.
Escanaba & Lake Superior drummed up another SD9 from its deadline to bolster its active fleet of locomotives. Here, former Reserve Mining SD9 No. 1221 switches cars in the former Milwaukee Road yard in Channing, Michigan.
ELS 1221 has been out of service since 2013 with the exception of a few months in 2016 when it was reactivated and loaned out to an online elevator.
ELS SD9 No. 1223 is also in operable condition, but hasn't seen service recently.

The maim leaves grow out in spring then die away - the stems reappear usually in late summer (August ) with pink blossoms . They may last two weeks.

Another dip into the archives. When I took this set of images I pretty much binned them as I thought they were unusable due to the amount of noise. I have recently started using Topaz Denoise AI which has resurrected a number of images
Le Christ se relève de sa propre mort, au coeur de la nuit. Son visage porte encore la marque terrible de ses souffrances, mais ses jambes sont fortes et puissantes. Il se tient droit, ce qui contraste avec les attitudes flasques molles et chaotiques des dormeurs, ou des deux soldats éblouis par la clarté qui jaillit du tombeau et qui les tord d'épouvante... Ici le Christ est la lumière du monde, éclairant comme un phare dans une nuit sans lune...
2024-09-10, Day 4
A sinuous arc of clouds is ignited with sunset light as it appears to parallel the path of the Donjek Glacier out of the mountains, Kluane National Park, Yukon.
We explored the massive gravel bars and heaved heaps of rock near the Glacier’s terminus for some time, marveling at the scale at which Nature works. Sometimes glaciers make booming, cracking, or other sounds as the ice shifts while going about its work, but this one was ponderous and silent while we were in its presence. Earlier in the day we saw two people at a great distance with brightly colored packs moving slowly upstream and following the Donjek River’s gravel bars. We had stayed higher up above the River on undulating benches and where these fellow travelers were now was unknowable - they had been swallowed by the magnificence of the land, much like us.
We returned to camp, retrieved the food bags, and collected some water in the pot to boil for making dinner. The area we selected for the “kitchen” was some ways from the tent and in the opposite direction from where we hung the food, to be as safe as possible given the ubiquitous bear signs. Strategically, I also wanted a spot from which we could see the Glacier while we supped, to better poise us for readily absorbing whatever evening light show might be on offer. Given the northern latitude, the light played with the clouds for an extended period of time, and I paused frequently to put down the evening repast and pick up the camera. A somewhat tepid meal is the inevitable byproduct of such foolishness, but I hardly noticed as the light soared over the Glacier and all around the vast wilderness surrounding us.
Looking at this photo now, I find that photography and memory can mutually reinforce each other such that an image can conjure previously dormant emotions, the simulacrum resurrecting some of the initial wonder of the experience. Yet it is impossible to replicate the first cresting of the rise, the first realization of what the landscape holds.
After its recent high profile failure, 37418 proves there is life in the old dog yet as it returns to duty, seen here passing through Energlyn & Churchill Park station. The working is 2R20 17:01 Cardiff Central to Rhymney.
