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.

I'm posting my comment on this photo a day after because I didn't want to break the magic of the pic , sadly this is the last time Holly will swim in this lake that was built to cover a dump ,( just found that out )
Since I took this pic the level of the water as lower a full 2 feet , it will soon become a mosquito infected swamp , I am shock to see the level of pollution I have discovered in my forest.
That evolution don't affect us all as human bean is sad , I really wish I could go back in time and see Canada just 500 years ago :o(

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 .

The Gambia, January 2020. Thanks to some wonderful guides it was a privilege to see 2 species of Nightjar roosting on the ground. This is a female Standard-winged Nightjar.
The magic conch revealed some classicly-cabbed EMD power was headed into the sun, so a "transitional" signal shot at CP466 was in order. This is EBD NS train W6G-21. Thankfully, the signal crews are dragging their feet on the western-most signals in the plant, saving this place from signal boredom, if only for the time being.

Rounding out my very first visit to the Pittsburgh Line in 2016, a pair of NS SD70's lead a lengthy train of old steel Top Gons at Carneys Crossing. Man i wish i could relive this scene again.

I believe this was the previous days train 224 that was held at East Creston. A crossing was bring replaced at Orrville, Ohio and the job must not have made to the work zone before an OOS was handed down. We discovered it there crew less in the early morning hours and continued our day with a 712. Finishing up with 712 at Akron, we took a quick drive back to to Creston in the afternoon hoping to see a crew boarding, and yielded just that! The chase was on!
