I don't think I will ever get over how cool it is to be between the clouds and the stars. I love seeing cloud cover over a city from a plane window.
CP B71-06 "The Ipsco Job" works upgrade beginning to traverse the many S-Curves up toward SSAB Iowa (Formerly Ipsco.) This job goes on duty at 1300 in Nahant Yard and makes a round trip run over the CP Ottumwa Sub out to SSAB and back to Nahant in the evening.

As in Edward Thomas's poem 'Wind and Mist' " Sixty miles of South Downs at one glance, .."
A memorial stone to him is situated a short way down the hill.
A pair of SNCF heavy diesels CC721xx are ready to deliver the fast train to Paris to the appropriate platform. In Picasa, the picture program of Google I discovered an app to make a picture look like as it would come from the 60ies. I think it works in this panorama of Troyes/France railway station with it's mighty hall.
I've had my fingerprints taken on three separate occasions. Each time was as a prerequisite to sitting for the bar examination in each of the three states in which I'm admitted. It's part of the character & fitness investigation that we lawyers are required to subject ourselves to so that the states can decide whether we are the type of person they want practicing law in their state. Funny how much our fingerprints are used by the government to identify us. And amazing how well it works. How unique each set of fingerprints actually are.
As part of our week one challenge in Project SoulPancake, I spent some time really closely examining and admiring my fingerprints. I've never really done that before. They seem pretty normal to me. Though I did notice that both of my ring fingers have prints that form bullseyes. The rest of my fingers are more swirly, but those ring fingers are perfect little bullseyes. And that kind of made me smile. Little circles of art right on my fingertips that I'd never even noticed.
Have you ever taken the time to look at yours?

A Mk2 Zodiac and Thames 307E van from Oxford Diecast. Posed on my London tramway layout, though naturaly placed to avoid any evidence of trams , as they were all replaced by buses in 1952!
Spent a short while watching trains this morning with the smallie before 'gym club'. Bit nippy but was nice to sit with the sun on my face :-)

Sixties exhibition in the Castle Museum, York, Yorkshire, England. 2014
Today was a cold day, one of the coldest of the year. I couldn't be more tired of winter, of these grey days with early endings. I should be like a migrating bird, seeking warmer lands as soon as it turns into fall. Still, I thought the best way for me to convey this mood was by taking advantage of my darling blue tights. The flowery dress is my way of protesting against the hell that is this winter. I just can't wait for the spring.
Torrey is a dancer I came in contact with in NYC. So yes, this one and the 2 previous ones from the High Line are "staged" photos for a project.

In the mid to late 1960's two ex-crosti boilered 9F's head a heavy tank train through Stockport. Of the class of ten, 92028 was withdrawn in October 1966, but the others soldiered on at Birkenhead Mollington Street (8H) until late 1967.

Low Moor B1 61306 has arrived at Leeds City station with the 7.55 passenger train from Bradford Exchange to London Kings Cross on 30 September 1967. This was the penultimate day of steam haulage on services between Leeds and Bradford. It was also the last day of the engine’s operational service before its withdrawal and subsequent preservation. The following day Low Moor and Leeds Holbeck sheds closed to steam and Normanton shed lost its steam allocation but remained open until the end of the year to service steam engines from other areas.

Distant ice shacks populate Kraft Slough east of Oakes, N.D., as a trio of DMV&W SD45s hustles five grain loads toward the CP interchange at Hankinson. The trio is all ex-WC, and each still retains its 20-cylinder 645 prime mover. Horsepower will not be an issue for now, but later in the day, this handsome trio is set to pick up a fully loaded grain shuttle at Lidgerwood, giving these old EMDs a good workout.
day sixty one
Sweetness;
On the rips of your old dress.
Twilight;
Passed the banks of the warm fire.
Whispers in the dark they hit the trees,
And they run in to your heart to find mama’s sleeves.
Daddy ain’t awake yet and daylight’s gone.
You’re afraid of the dark you think of mama’s bones,
Says I can’t live like this.
We haven't had any sun for over a week. Lots of snow, flurries, sleet, and clouds, but no sun. This is my sun and save for the day. Normally on weekend, I set out for a more elaborate shot, but nothing was inspiring me, partly due to the depressing weather, and partly due to my honey do list, so Cooper would have to do.

Can't beat an SD60 pulling stacks in some sweet golden light with a stick! Southbound at Sussex shot off the UP bridge. This train was right behind the prior shot of the SOO SD60, however this shot got the sun.
As many of you have pointed out, I have tortured and abused Peeps in the most vile ways. Let it be said, I did so with the purest of intents, in the name of science, and let us be done with the incriminations. I have tried my best to study these squishy little Easter creatures to find out what makes them so appealing. They are cute. They have longevity, with the power to reappear year, after year, after bloody year. They are slowly taking on every colour in a sixty-four box of Crayola crayons, which as a side note are quite edible, even though one should not eat their crayons. If you find yourself shipwrecked at sea, enough of them tied together could be used as a flotation device, until you are rescued or eaten by a shark; the shark having the good sense to eat only what is edible, leaving the peeps raft behind. As one last experiment, I prepared a salad and before I could finish off my greens, I doused it with my favourite ranch dressing......still, it is totally inedible. Sigh.....
Disclaimer: No Peeps were harmed in the taking of these images. Well....except for the one I hacked apart with the knife AND the one I squished with a brick AND maybe this one drowned by ranch dressing, BUT no others.....trust me.....
Happy Easter, Everyone :-))
