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.

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.

Knocking off mile my mile and cruising at every bit of track speed train 107 with a LNG set up front splits the 63 signals in the middle of Dorena siding. The entire 20 hours or so on the FEC were irritating, frustrating and just rather interesting. From wild hogs going nuts in the woods next to me here, the homeless life in Saint Augustine coming out of the thicket and almost getting hit to just getting plan ole cloud fucked, and trains running way off schedule on a fairly scheduled railroad. FEC was not my friend this trip but I did still get a few decent trains.
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.
Buckhorn Lake road most known for the side by side searchlight signals just north of here actually has two sets of signals within just over a mile stretch that are easily accessible and both are on the endangered list. While the north set has new tri-lights sitting next to them this set isn't as noticeable. These search lights are actually sitting on brand new bases and have brand new conduit running into them still waiting to be cut over to this day. On nice September morning an empty coal train with a pair of Gevo's up front is notched out getting back up to speed after clearing the slow order in Holly

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.

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.
