Loading the old self portrait yesterday made me remember this old one as well. They have similar vibes with the light patterns. Thought I would share. Riding out a storm here right now. The lights keep flickering. Just hoping no tornadoes.......
Yoshi is ready for a collaborative Brickworld 2013 project with Dan Church and Casey McCoy, but what could it be?

After getting fooled by a different northbound an hour beforehand, CNs A407 job rips through the small town of Ludlow, IL, a half hour north of Champaign, IL. Each small town along the IC has something unique, here, two skyscraper-like grain elevators that tower above the small town below.
I have been taking pictures of Beech Scale for a local newsletter which I edit. I am also learning how to put textures into images. Quelle coincidence! I discovered that Beech Scale makes a great sky texture. If you are interested in reading more about Beech Scale disease, go here, to my friend Andy McFarlane's excellent Michigan in Pictutes site:

(I really wanted to name this photo "Black Hole Sun", but I couldn't quite pull it off).
Chicago Central 1744 climbs the grade at Scales Mound, IL with a loaded coal train back in April of 1990. The CC would take a 110 car coal train and run them as two 55 car trains into Chicago due to the grades from Dubuque, IA to Freeport, IL.

Part of Bristol Light Festival 2025
C-Scales is an audio-visual installation originally created for, and inspired by Sydney Harbour. This artwork has been reimagined for Bristol Light Festival; an array of animations will be projected onto a suspended façade of more than 1,800 CDs and DVDs. The reflections will paint the landscape and visitors with shimmering threads of light, resulting in a subtly immersive installation.
Artist: Bruce Munro
Castle Bridge, Bristol

Scale Force
Despite the low water levels when I took this photo last year, Scale Force maintains its dominance.

I'm a huge fan of old industrial architecture, as I'm sure most of us are. Situated in Hamilton's industrial north end is this former Stelco (Steel Company of Canada) scale shack which sat guarding the long-gone Rod Mill No. 2. As far as I can make out, all the former Rod Mill property is now owned and operated by the the Hamilton Oshawa Port Authority (HOPA). I'm not sure why they decided to keep the scale house. There's an area here which feels purpose built for transloading, so it would be reasonable to assume they just wanted a scale here. Despite this, it doesn't look like the building has been used in any capacity for a number of years, despite the massive AC unit on the roof. For a distant photo of the scale shack in better days see here .
In the background the Welland Yard crew TE11 (who ran in Hamilton on Saturdays around this time) spots some Lafarge gons on the aptly named Rod Mill Runaround.
Another scale comparison - this time with the recently built 42167 Technic Garbage Truck.
At 9 studs wide this relatively small Technic model comes quite close to the "Larger City Scale" range I'm working with.
I'm wondering if there's ever been a Technic model so densely packed with high-end functionality at this scale - though it's possible I've missed quite a few releases over time.
In any case, I think this opens up a whole new range of possibilities.
