Confirmation of my slip showing. One of my work colleagues is always checking out my hem to see if I'm wearing a slip. Maybe I should just let him enjoy the view?

Yeah, well, I was raised near New Orleans; occasionally one of the local catchphrases slips out. ;-)
This lovely pair of vagrants has been hanging out in Baltimore, wowing visitors for going on a week now. I decided the reports seemed solid enough to warrant a drive up there on Sunday, and sure enough, there they were, exactly as promised, perched on this massive rope between two huge Navy ships. I was admittedly surprised - I mean they're BIRDS, don't they fly around and go wherever they want? They flew all the way HERE. This is only the second sighting of this species in the state of Maryland, but at least for now, they seem content there - I read a report just today that someone had gone to see them, and there they were, right on these same ropes.
If they hang around, you can see them with a scope from the Canton side, from the corner of the red sidewalk that juts out west of the Bo Brooks restaurant. You can see them with binoculars, too, but they're nearly impossible to discern from the cormorants at that distance. Instead, I recommend taking a Blue Line water taxi from Canton Waterfront Park, and if you're lucky you'll get the vivacious Amanda as your taxi guide, and she will entertain you and herself both with repeated use of their name.
Here's an article about this pair, for those interested. I've posted a backed-out view of the scene in the next image.
This is an off-course pair of

Two of my favourite retro slips, taken at the last session with Jane. This was one of the most relaxed sessions we had had.

VIA 84 slips through Bloor GO at speed as it passes a cut of Canadian Pacific grain hoppers which make up part of an “Extra Roadswitcher” train as it works Lambton Yard using the otherwise GO-only portion of the Galt Subdivision for headroom. Seeing as it’s quite uncommon to see freight cars parallel to Bloor Station, I felt this shot was an important one to share.
J slips the quarter into the slot and the arcade starts up. There's not even a title screen, it just goes straight to a bunch of lights and annoying sounds. I think I made out a spaceship or something shooting a star made of wires or something. I couldn't look too long, all the flashing lights and weird camera movements made me sick. I just turned away and listened to the obnoxious beeps and boops from the machine, and J rattling away at the controls. I look around the game room and see all the things we could be investigating, but instead J's wasting time with a gross, out of date piece of shit video game. I just kept standing there annoyed out of my mind until I started noticing something myself. I've seen J play video games before. One time he got his hands on a Gameboy or something. The reason he doesn't play video games is because nothing else does a better job of pissing him off so quickly. He threw every dirty word he knew at that thing before he just straight-up threw it. All I hear now is the game and J going nuts on the controls. Besides that he's not making a sound. I'm still facing away from him when out of nowhere a really bright flash and a digital cracking sound comes from behind. I turn around quickly and see J stumbling back, covering his face. Then he falls back on the ground out cold.
"J!! J, what happened! Wake up!!"
"......."
"Oh god, what the fuck!?...."
I hold his head up and shake him. Nothing. He's down. I don't even know if he's breathing. And I don't even know what the fuck just happened. I look back up at the arcade machine he was playing. All those flashing lights and stupid sounds are gone. It's just a black screen now with some text. It was fuzzy, but the text said; "Welcome to Wonderland"....

Now preserved, 73129 slips past Clapham Junction B signal box with a Battersea to Norwood Junction freight working on 13 May 1976. The 1952-built box closed in 1980.
By coincidence, the other BR locomotive numbered 73129, Standard 5MT 4.6.0, is also now in preservation.

These are the passenger ferry slips (recently restored) of the former Lackawanna Railroad (today's Morris&Essex and Boonton Lines). Erie passenger trains (Main/Bergen/Pascack lines today) began using this terminal in 1957 when the Erie Jersey City terminal above Pavonia Newport Path stop was closed. These ferry slips handled commuter ferry service to Barclay Street, Christopher Street and 23rd Street. Ferry service to 23rd St was discontinued in the 40's, Christopher St service was discontinued in 1953. Ferry service to Barclay Street operated until late 1967. Freight barges were not handled at these slips but further south where the DL&W had a large freight yard. Today, ferries operated by NY Waterway operate from the south end of the this terminal - a nice alternative to taking the PATH trains into Downtown NYC.
