Merry Christmas to all of you. I hope the day, and the season, has brought all of you great joy.

 

It was a silent night on the Niles Canyon Railway. After an evening chasing the Train of Lights, the heavy overcast departed, allowing a near full moon to shine on the countryside. It also provided the best backdrop against the vulnerable semaphores guarding Sunol. Yes, the signal indication was not correct for the signal indication, but hey, it worked!

These signalling platforms were a nautical version of railway semaphore signals and were used to communicate with steamships entering the port of Cardiff during the late 19th century.

Eastbound absolute signal at Tuner (formerly NI) in West Chicago. This is how CNW signals should look, with horizontal signal heads. Note that two have been replaced. I think this is the only bridge left on the Geneva Sub with these signal heads.

On an overcast January afternoon, CSX 4561 guides an ethanol train under the classic NYC searchlight signals in Depew, New York.

Another fantastic night in the Tetons! Last night we went up to Signal Mountain to see a stunning display of stars. I found it fitting to 'signal' the Andromeda universe, a satellite joined in for the fun too.

 

I'll be leaving the area soon, still undecided where to go. I have a few weeks to explore before my next workshop back in the Tetons (still some space left btw)

This Ensign Wasp in the family Evaniidae was filmed in the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador. The black abdomen (metasoma) moves up and down as if signalling with a flag, which gave rise to the common name ensign wasp. They are completely harmless to humans and actually are beneficial since they lay an egg in the egg cases of cockroaches and the hatched wasp larva feeds on the roach eggs.

URR 23, 22, 25, 16 lead the empty 66 coke train from Port Perry/Dexter yard are arriving back home into Clairton passing the C1 signal. 66 job ran on two shifts, they would run loads from Clairton to Braddock and to the CSX at Dexter yard. The midnight job would always take "dinner" at coal valley just north of Clairton until around about 7-730 and would then roll down into the mill to yard their train and tie up at 10am. Here the mid night train is running late and is rolling into the mill well behind schedule and would die while yarding the train.

The train becomes a spectre in the mist over the Cole Valley as it leaves Yardley Wood for Shirley station.

The train was 2S04 the 09.07 Great Malvern to Stratford-upon-Avon service with 172217 as the trailing set.

BNSF 7590 passes under the old Santa Fe signal bridges with a long stack train at Mp. 313 in La Plata, MO. on the BNSF Marceline Sub. (5-1-2013)

Now a thing of the past, I wish I had photographed these more and the others along the line for that matter.

Panagia Trapeza. Conservation project of the church of Agia Trapeza in Acheritou village. Panagia Trapeza is a medieval church.

 

It is believed that the church of Panagia Trapeza was the main church of the medieval town, which gradually deserted, leaving the church as a single signal memory of history.

On a sunny Friday in March, an eastbound train of mostly trailers passes the endangered Santa Fe signal bridges at Edelstein, Illinois on the BNSF Chillicothe Subdivision. The units in this train's consist are already in dynamic braking as its engineer prepares for the 1.1% descending grade that begins a half mile to the east, and which takes the former AT&SF tracks into the Illinois River valley at Chillicothe.

A westbound Northeast Regional train flies towards Edison Station, passing under a signal gantry chock full of Position Color Lights (colorized Position Lights, not to be confused with Color Position Lights used by the B&O).

Part of The Tarka Trail, the signal box remains in excellent condition at Instow

The north track of CN's Chicago Subdivision has been removed between Oakwood and 21st Street, leaving 16th Street Crossing a bit less cluttered and this signal guarding nothing. Behind it on the St Charles Air Line, Amtrak's southbound 'Illini' clunks across Metra's Rock Island District.

On a hike to Yant Flat north of St George, Utah, the view north to Signal Peak with its remaining snow caught my admiration. Signal Peak (10,369') is the highest point in the Pine Valley Mountains.

KJRY 1750 leads a westbound freight past the signal that once guarded the BNSF diamond in Canton, IL.
