The northbound deadhead Santa Train passes the classic Clinchfield era signals at Dante en route to Shelby, KY for the following days Santa run.
Former NBR High Street Goods signal box. Opened in 1904 and closed in 1967. Survived until the early 2000s despite the yard closing in 1982.
Surviving GSWR built Bell St goods bonded warehouse of College St goods in background. Apparently the premises were used by Scotch whisky blenders. Building now converted to flats.
Late Feb 1985
Having a desire to snag a dramatic night photo of the searchlight signals in Old Monroe, Mo. was always on my to-do-list.
On this night, it worked out perfectly with the high clouds racing overhead and the glow of the city lights in the distance. I even got a little help with the cold weather because some of the folks in town had fires burning. Their smoke after filtering through the air was thin enough to help create the perfect flare from the signals' light.
Taken from the fence line surrounding the house track in Old Monroe, Mo. on the BNSF Hannibal Sub. on December 6th, 2015 just before a UCEX coal load ripped through town.
As sunlight fades behind the Lower Austrian Mountains, a westbound OBB Railjet passes by the long closed, but restored Breitensetein signal box.
This round mound of a mountain doesn't get much attention when one is at the iconic Oxbow Bend of the Snake River. Some rather craggy peaks like the "grand" one at the right does tho.
This is the northern section of Signal Mountain, with the 7720 foot summit to the SW. Incredible views of the Tetons from the top.
"Though located adjacent to the Tetons, Signal Mountain was not formed in the same manner or period. The mountain originally was formed by volcanic ashfall from one of the eruptions of the Yellowstone hotspot. The peak is also partially a glacial moraine formed by a receding glacier that came south out of the Yellowstone icecap. This same glacier also created neighboring Jackson Lake." Wikipedia
Have a wonderful week!
Henri-Georges Adam (1904–1967) was considered during his lifetime to be one of the greatest French sculptors and printmakers of his time. He is the creator of the emblematic Signal, a monumental sculpture spanning 22 metres and weighing 220 tonnes, commissioned by the State in 1956 for the terrace of the Musée-maison de la culture du Havre.
With some time to kill and no interest in looking for VTR 263 this time since it had a blue leaser leading again I decided I'd go find a shot of Amtrak 55, the southbound Vermonter from St. Albans to Washington.
The north end of the 8887 ft. siding at Walpole North (MP 146.8) on the New England Central Railroad's Palmer Sub features a nice set of Boston and Maine era searchlight signals. Interestingly the northbound signal is offset and features a 'doll arm' with a rare blue light making for an interesting historic scene with the train splitting the classic signals.

After dropping some rail near mile 6 and 18 on the Fording sub, a CWR train heads south back to Sparwood where it would tie down for the night. Here we have it passing the signal on the approach to Elkview, the mine seen in the background.
The Ann Arbor RR - Michigan Interstate - Ann Arbor turn is passing the south signal at Milan, Michigan with RS2 303 doing the work this day - March 29, 1984.

Union Pacific's daily Ogden - Cheyenne manifest pulls its 75-car train under signal bridge 9469 between Baskin and Emory, Utah in Echo Canyon on June 27, 1992. UP's signal and cantilever bridges were removed from the Evanston Subdivision two decades ago. They were a necessity for signal aspect viewing when this left-hand running railroad operated steam locomotives with very long boilers. Not much of a problem for a crew in an SD40-2 with a low hood.
The 10,221-foot-high summit of the former Rio Grande main line over Tennessee Pass sits quiet and rusty today, with heavy trains no longer grinding through the lofty 2,550-foot tunnel beneath the Continental Divide. Still “railbanked” by Union Pacific more than twenty years since the last passage of a train, the future of the route still hangs in a precarious balance. In this view looking at the west switch of Tennessee Pass siding, I’m not sure which I find more disturbing—the graffiti on buildings at this remote mountain location, or the decapitated signals that will never highball another train.
