Delaware-Lackawanna PO-75 works Ardent Mills at Pocono Summit, picking up grain cars that were dropped off a few days earlier. With its Canadian wide cab clearly identifying its heritage, I liked being able to get it leading a train with it being one of the more unique engines thanks to the cab. 10-22-21

The top of Stob Dearg as seen from the A82. Wasn't really much point in doing a colour image as there was no colour!!! Grey skies and grey rock meant B&W to bring out the textures.
The summit of Mt Rinjani offers an amazing view of the crater lake, with the Balinese twin volcanic peaks in the far distance.

After a steep ascent up a loose gravel trail, in blazing August heat, the summit in Stelzer Park rewarded our effort with the discovery of an amazing cave formed by massive, jumbled boulders strewn about the peak. Accessed through a crevice in the stones, we slipped inside and experienced the cooling west wind as it flowed up the far mountain slopes from the Pacific and funneled through the cave.
On the Barlow Toll Road, Summit Meadows was an important rest stop for emigrants. Travelers who just crested the cascade range used the meadow to rest and prepare for the descent down the Sandy River. Despite the lack of edible grass for cattle and oxen, berries and water were plentiful. Today, the only remnant of this important stop are two graves.

Unfortunately when we reached the summit the lonliness was history.We had to wait for the departure of the train to get up there alone and only for 30 seconds....
Conveniently situated just off the A39, these Neolithic marker stones make a fine stop off point on my travels across the moor with the camera. (f/16, 16 mm, 1/6th sec at ISO 80).

One of the last two trains I would see in 2020 was Hackettstown to Hoboken train 854. It was shoved east through Summit by one of the last two NJ Transit F40s in revenue service.

A load of Routt County coal grinds its way up the 1.8% grade over Pallas Summit on the approach to a crew change at Phippsburg. The Denver and Salt Lake Railway chose to leave the Yampa River at Phippsburg and build west over the small summit separating the Yampa River from and Oak Creek. Oak Creek provided a longer and more gentile approach to the lower Yampa River Valley. The 4-6 train days of the early 2000's have turned into 4-6 train months on this stretch of railroad but it's not gone yet.
