Claremont & Concord's venerable old Geep does some switching in the New England Central's south yard at White River Junction, VT, on 6-22-15, before returning across the river to its home base in Lebanon, NH.
I gave him(well..the wig)a haircut. :)
And this(and all other pictures of him in my album)is Taeheo wearing 14mm eyes.

Fully Charged Live 2021 (aka Fully Charged Outside) was the latest event to be held at the Farnborough International site in Farnborough, Hants. The three-day event hosted a huge selection of electric vehicles including two PSV products. There was also an internal Park & Ride bus service operating using 8 buses over the course of the event with the addition of an occasional trip to Farnborough (Main) railway station.
I visited on the overcast Saturday and returned on the sunny Sunday. For the record, buses seen were:

Started as a bicentennial project in 1976, Bellevue, Ohio’s Mad River & NKP Railroad Museum has grown into one of the largest outdoor railroad museums in the Midwest. Indoor exhibits cover Bellevue’s earliest rail line, the Mad River & Lake Erie of 1839. There is a heavy emphasis on the Nickel Plate Road, and the museum displays several restored pieces including a NKP RSD-12, GP30, and 2-8-4 Berkshire. Other Ohio rail lines are not forgotten, and there are numerous pieces of equipment on display from Baltimore & Ohio, Wheeling & Lake Erie, Norfolk & Western, Wabash, and others. Some of these railroads are now part of Norfolk Southern, which runs dozens of trains past the museum every day. There are also many smaller locomotives in the collection, including an 0-6-0F fireless from Cleveland Electric and a Milwaukee Road Fairbanks-Morse H-12-44 (in fresh paint!), and an assortment of passenger cars that includes the first dome car ever built. The museum is well worth a visit if you find yourself near Bellevue.

'Come here,' said Turnbull, 'till you see the sadness
In the horse's eyes,
If you had such big hooves under you there'd be sadness
In your eyes too.'
It was clear that he understood so well the sadness
In the horse's eyes,
And had pondered it so long that in the end he'd plunged
Into the horse's mind.
I looked at the horse to see the sadness
Obvious in its eyes,
And saw Turnbull's eyes looking in my direction
From the horse's head.
I looked at Turnbull one last time
And saw on his face
Outsize eyes that were dumb with sadness –
The horse's eyes.
