On holiday by the seaside from the Great Central Railway, 73156 runs along the extension to Worgret Junction under Holme Lane bridge. Taken on a Martin Creese photo charter, fortunately we were blessed with some sun which I understand was in short supply during the gala the weekend before.

Another new and interesting exhibit. This Standard Atlas was apparently found in a lockup, having been stored for years. Someone appears to have been in the early stages of turning it into a camper van; work which looks to have stalled many years ago! The museum decided to put this on display in 'as found' condition, aside from a clean. Unfortunately the DVLA record doesn't tell us when it was last taxed, which is a shame. I think we can assume it was quite some time ago - I'd guess the 1970s.

SD70 #2578 was part of the last round of locomotives ordered for Conrail in the late 90s. That Conrail blue is bleeding through the battle scars on the nose of this Spartan cab EMD as it's sits tied down on the industrial track in Newport PA on the head end of a loaded rail train.

Today is the 4th July, the USA Independence Day. This year they celebrate 250 Years of independence from British Rule.
So happy celebrations everyone!
For me in Australia and for perhaps many in the world this anniversary has represented how the USA has lost its way over the last decade. From unnecessary wars, fake news and alternative facts, murky waters in terms of tarriffs and the effect on inflation, the USA has certainly demonstrated how they can affect others.
A bright spot in this era of uncertainty and stupidity is shown by how well we in Australia have managed to avoid disastrous Oil shortages caused by the US Israel war against Iran. So the backfire effect has lead to an undertanding of how Renewable Energy, Electric Cars and diversified economies can lead to better security as well as hopefully. decarbonisation. China must be happy!
Happy Fourth of July! Check out Laura Tingle on what saved the global economy:

A pair of CN C40-8s lead train R90183 out of Keenan. The train is swinging north at the wye in Keenan to head toward Iron Junction Minnesota.
Though the standard power for years on the Northern Minnesota Iron Range has been EMD products, in my visit in June of 2018 the standard was starting to change to GE. At the forefront of the change in power from EMD to GE are the C40-8s. Though older EMD power still has a foothold it's no where near what it once was.
NS train 21Z, aka "The Zipper" (Rutherford, PA to Chicago, IL, 63rd St., Park Manor Yard hotshot trailers/containers) flies through downtown Waterloo, Indiana on NS' ex-LS&MS/NYC/PC/CR Chicago Line with NS 8102, the Pennsylvania Railroad Heritage Unit in charge. The PRR was known as "The Standard Railroad of the World". The NYC era tri-light signals are still in service here. The Zipper was over on the #2 main passing other slower westbound trains.

I guess it was meant to be Norfolk Southern's day today. SD40-2 3563 and GP60 7123 wait outside TRRA's Madison Yard at Granite City, IL with the 31N, down from Decatur.
I haven't seen 33A in daylight in months but what a triumphant return!
The all standard cab EMD consist motors through CP Harrisburg as the fading sunlight quickly slips below the trees with an excellent ex-Conrail SD40-2 leading an ex-Norfolk & Western SD40-2, an ex-Penn Central GP38-2, an ex-Southern GP59, and a GMTX SW1500.
The Allentown-bound freight train would stop a few miles east of here at Rutherford Yard and pick up a GP38-2 that lead auto rack train 11J into town earlier in the day.
London Transport Piccadilly Line 'Standard Stock' at Northfields depot, on a bright sunny day in around 1958. Other stock in view includes one train of 1938 Stock, and some District Line Q and R Stock, together with what appears to be one set of 1956 Stock on the right. The depot had been built to accommodate 'surface' stock, and was occasionally visited by LT Panniers..
Today (2023) the red and silver stock has all gone, but the depot looks much the same, although there is now a substantial security fence on the left, on the boundary with the main Piccadilly Line tracks.
Restored from a very faded unfocussed orange/cyan colour shifted original..
