So far this month has been quite warm, gentle and sunny. But nothing is forever so we now have the usual grey that is typical for November. Nevertheless hiking along River Weser was great fun. Minden, Ostwestfalen, Germany
The Standard Ten was a model name given to several small cars produced by the British Standard Motor Company between 1906 and 1961. The name was a reference to the car's fiscal horsepower or tax horsepower, a function of the surface area of the pistons. This 1934 Standard 10, WF 6766, is seen arriving at the Pre-War Prescott event on 11th September 2021.

Gold Standard. Hmmm. I am always suspicious of self promotion. Best Burger in town, best coffee, pizza, poutine in town. These are statements, which I do not put much faith in. I did not try. They may be the best, but sometimes GS is just BS. This store is selling $6 sandwiches. Not expensive for Toronto, but nothing special, nothing I could not make at home.

Just another frame of this final surprise of last summer's trip.
Having bid goodbye to John down in Springfield Frank and I had one last night just us and a half a day left before departing home to opposite sides of the continent. Our last morning dawned clear and dry and as it would turn out the railfan gods had one final surprise in store for us. After a fun morning enjoying Santa Fe Junction for the last time and with only 90 minutes left on the clock we headed toward the West Bottoms. I still wanted a really nice morning lit shot along the UP and when we drove by I was astonished to see a standard cab leader on the point of an eastbound holding west of Hickory Street (CPK001) beside State Line Yard on Main 3 strung out across the Kansas River on the old Missouri Pacific bridge.
In short order the Knoche Yard bound transfer behind UP 1566 (EMD SD40-2 blt. Nov. 1976 as CNW 6928) and 1958 (EMD GP60 blt. Sep. 1989 as SSW 9656) got the light and they were underway across town on Union Pacific's KC Metro Sub .
