078 passes the 11 3/4 milepost while approaching Beauparc with the 09:20 Tara Mines-North Wall laden Zinc Ore train. Beauparc, located on the Drogheda-Navan Branch was opened on the 1st of September 1850 by the Dublin and Drogheda Junction Railway. It lost its passenger service in 1958 but Gypsum trains from Kingscourt kept the line opened. Zinc Ore trains started to operate in 1977 from Tara Mines in Navan to Dublin Port. There are 3 Laden trains per day scheduled Monday to Friday, but usually only one Laden train runs on fridays. The Tara Mines are the heaviest trains to operate in Ireland ,each wagon when Laden weighs about 75 tonnes which can make a full Laden train over 900 tonnes. Today these trains are the only reason the line has remained opened.

Happy Easter :)
It must be Spring! Back in my favourite daisy patch (sorry Marguerite patch) with my little old p&s and looking to the sky. It never ceases to amaze me the shots you can get - the wide angle of the p&s macro setting does the trick with its good depth of field and some bright early spring sunshine does the rest.

Today was Snap the Daffodils Day in my house... Actually, at this time of year, it's always Snap the Daffs Day in my house, but there we go.
Do you know how TWITCHY I get when I have SOOC photos!!!!
Only did the bare minimum of cropping as well why it ended up as a huge file! Didn't even think it would turn out either because I was shooting directly into the sun.
I was actually listening to the blackbird singing in the tree before I realised how pretty it looked with the sun glinting off the new growth.
What would we do without nature!!!

The old track to Grove Wold Farm near Riby on the north eastern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. The Humber in the distance.
A photo taken whilst out working in the garden. The air was cold, but the sun quickly warmed the mood and brought a smile. Spring is on it's way...
'The landwash' is our term/description for the area close to the shoreline and while I'm not quite down there - it's close. Near St. John's, NL.
Out cycling and the sun catching the grass that's strating to respond to longer days and some warmth.
A Muscovy duck are unique because of their bright red caruncles around their eyes and above the beak. They do not swim much because their oil glands are under developed compared to most ducks. Muscovy drakes can set three times a year, and the egg clutches can vary from 8 to 21 eggs.Muscovy ducks make great pets.

Spring is in the air at West Stow in Suffolk, as these geese and their goslings swim across the lake.
Some more of the hyacinths and daffodils at The Old Rectory, Coleshill - this time with a bit of garden context. Looking out of the window now, it's hard to believe it was that sunny and warm just 10 days ago. As you can see, the sunlight was quite harsh, bleaching out the pale daffodils.
Looks better on black - click on the image itself, or press the 'L' key on your keyboard.
A wonderful morning at Wisley and so not what I expected to come away with - i.e. the ubiquitous snowdrop shot
Another sunny day, another ride as I try and make the most of the good weather and quiet roads.
The riding is ok, being my one daily exercise allowance, and I stick to that, not going out to the shop or anything if I'm planning a ride that day.
The stopping for photos though.... Hmmmm. Mental exercise, that's what that is, yes, mental exercise. (I'm not sure all the photo stops are strictly within the guidelines, but they're all out in the middle of nowhere so unlikely to pose a spreading or catching threat).
