Después de una primera foto en Aveinte, tocaba salir pitando para Babilafuente para ver si se le podía hacer una segunda toma a este irrepetible traslado. No se hizo mucho de rogar, y a los 5 minutos apareció la impoluta 333.344 por los regadíos de la comarca de Las Villas, con sus 15 coches que ese día dormirían en Salamanca para después seguir a Portugal, su destino final.
Rail Operations Group (ROG) 37608 'Andromeda' leads a failed Greater Anglia Stadler 'FLIRT' 755414 past Waterbeach, 5K11 1200 from Cambridge L.H.S. to Norwich C.Pt. T.&R.S.M.D.
The ROG Thunderbird contract for Greater Anglia is planned to run out in the next couple of days - is this the last hurrah for 37608, or will the contract be extended?
Vue aérienne du parc olympique de Montréal prise à partir de l’avion, lors d'un vol entre Francfort en Allemagne et l’aéroport Pierre-Élliott-Trudeau à Montréal au Canada.
La grande surface verte adjacente au parc olympique représente le Jardin botanique et le parc Maisonneuve.
En arrière-plan, on peut voir le fleuve Saint-Laurent, les ponts reliant l'île de Montréal à la rive sud ainsi que les îles Notre-Dame et Sainte-Hélène qui ont été réaménagées dans le cadre de l'Expo 67, l'exposition internationale dont Montréal fut l'hôte à l'été 1967.
Le titre de ma photo s'inspire des paroles de la populaire chanson de Robert Charlebois "Je reviendrai à Montréal" présentée dans le video suivant qui montre de très belles images de Montréal en hiver: youtu.be/K6FqfK3Q0Vg?si=kIAqdvaV95h1sjQP
Le Stade olympique est un stade omnisports couvert d'une capacité de 56 000 places, pouvant être aménagé jusqu'à une capacité de 65 000 places. Conçu par l'architecte français Roger Taillibert à la demande du maire Jean Drapeau, le Stade avait pour mandat d'accueillir les Jeux olympiques d'été de 1976 dans un premier temps, puis les Expos de Montréal par la suite, qui y ont séjourné à partir de 1977, jusqu'à leur départ, en 2004. Sa tour de 165 mètres de haut, soutenant 75 % de la charge du toit, est la plus haute structure inclinée au monde et elle comporte un funiculaire qui permet de rejoindre un observatoire.
Édifice emblématique de la ville de Montréal, il demeure controversé, étant vu à la fois comme un chef-d’œuvre d'architecture et comme un éléphant blanc. Surnommé en anglais le « Big O » en référence à sa forme vue de haut, c'est le plus grand stade du Canada. Depuis 2012 c'est le stade hivernal de l'Impact de Montréal.
Situé au cœur du Parc olympique de Montréal, le Stade olympique fait partie d'un ensemble d'équipements, comprenant la Tour de Montréal, le Centre sportif, les esplanades extérieures, ainsi qu'un vaste stationnement intérieur de près de 4 000 places. L'espace à la base de la tour abrite le Centre sportif du Parc olympique et le plus grand centre aquatique au Canada, équipé de gymnases, de salles de musculation et de sept piscines.
Created for Down Under Challenge No. 1223, starting with Gill Steenvoorde's challenge image. I took the shot of our son over half a century ago.
37510 is seen dragging 730202 as it passes Barrow upon Soar working the 5Q72 1211 Derby Litchurch Lane - Wembley Intercity Depot 8/3/25.
On 26/02/24 my path to bed after work was delayed by trying my luck for 5R56 0852 Derby RTC-Castle Donington PRDC sidings operated by ROG 37884 & 37800 with 4 coaches for store. The wind was blowing a bitingly cold gale here and using a pole was very hard work, and sun was by far from guaranteed and only flashed out as the train neared this end of the viaduct.. but luckily the old adage, don't go = don't get couldn't be used, as I did go, and I got !
Earlier I described how the border impacted the railway Lipusz - Bytów. It's now time to show something from the border station itself.
Róg used to be the border station, where the line from Lipusz terminated. Its German name, which it had carried for the first 40 or so years of its existance, was Sonnenwalde (Kreis Bütow). The Polish name is way more compact and just means 'horn', or 'corner'.
It certainly is a nice corner in Kashubia. Surrounded by fields which are left after the local forests had been destroyed in 2017.
Currently it is very peaceful, as barely any trains pass throgh here. The station buildings have of course been repurposed and now live on as normal housing with gardens just like the one on the picture right on the trackside. The SM42-2622 right near it is passing the eastern side of the ex-border station as it's heading to Lipusz as a light engine for the second part of a loaded cement train for PREFABET in Osława-Dąbrowa. It is so peaceful here that you would never think that this once used to be a relatively important line with a very stormy history.

The Driver on ROG 37884 opens up departing Barassie yard with the Scotrail 318 EMU after run round here, working from Kilmarnock Bonnyton depot to Yorker. You can see the trailing points off the single line from Klmarnock to here then the facing points of the realinged track towards Troon which the Loco is just passing over. Passenger services from Kilmarnock to Ayr can no longer stop here due to the platform on the branch being taken out of use.. The main line from Glasgow to Ayr to the right of the picture.
37800 is seen at Chevin approaching Milford tunnel working the 5Q65 0902 Doncaster Belmont Down Yard - Oxley Carriage Maintenance Depot, sadly running about 80 minutes late. It was dragging units 730036 & 730038 30/4/24. (Taken using a pole)

This was the fence that bordered the driveway of our first home in Connecticut. The year was 1967. The original image was quite poor, but through some digital doctoring in Topaz Studio, I was able to make it Flickr worthy - sort of anyway.

ROG 37884 Propels the Scotrail 318 EMU out of Platform 3 at Kilmarnock into Bonnyton depot for refubishing. No doubt the loco will be back in a month or so to take it back to Yorker depot. Nice to see a few enthusiasts on the platform!

5Q72 0830 Gascoigne Wood Sidings to Willesden Depot stock move
First bit of Sleet and Snow of the Winter and ROG 37800 stands in the down Siding at Manningtree. It did not last long and turned to Rain with the sun out at 1200am.
ROG's 37884 "Cepheus" and 37800 "Cassiopeia" head up the Amber Valley with the 10:22 Crewe SY to Attercliffe Sdgs with a train consisting of 15 JHA wagons belonging to ARC for scrapping.
Europhoenix`s 37800 "Cassiopeia" is seen leaving Gascoigne wood siding on a unit move to Soho L.M.D. (5Q65) 26/11/2024.
The unit was West Midlands Alstom built Aventra 730004 which had been at Gascoigne wood for mods.
These band tail pigeons have gotta go; they're eating me outa house and home. Shortly after I took this shot, they had drained the seeds in the feeder down to well below the the top feeding hole. In the meantime, all the finches and other little birds are flitting around in the trees, hoping there will be some food left after the pigeons finally finish gorging themselves. Even the squirrels had to wait their turn. We've always figured all birds and critters are welcome to come and enjoy the feast, but these big band tails are just a bit too much.
