In July 1984 on Wyoming’s Sherman Hill, a westbound Union Pacific grain train waits at Dale Junction, Wyoming, on Track 3, as an eastbound reefer train sits over on Track 1. Crossing over from Track 1 to Track 2 is a hot westbound led by a DDA40X and two SD40-2s, with the head end brakemen from both stopped trains on the ground making an inspection of the train threading the needle.

MAGNUS , LIM's little brother tries to hide between a bundle of threads which tickled his nose 😄

Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within in.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together. All things connect.

Smile on Saturday! :-) - Thread
For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Complementary Colours'.
A very obvious subject for this weeks theme.
No trouble in finding the the reels of thread - too much choice really when I looked one of M's collections.
The 'orange' is one of Dewhurst's TRYLCO terylene threads and is described as 'Flame' coloured.
The 'blue-green' is a Coats' DRIMA polyester thread of no specified colour.
The needle - the bigest I could find cos I had to thread it, has obviously seen better days.
And I have put everything back where I think I found it - there will be trouble if I haven't. !!

Like thread through a needle, the westbound RIO GRANDE ZEPHYR passes through Tunnel 29 just east of Cliff siding, west of Denver, on June 30, 1979.
Along the scenic Oregon Coast lies two large offshore rocks, one of which contains a natural rock arch. On this autumn evening, the sunset aligned with the arch full of golden light over incoming ocean waves.

Our friend, Zuma threads thru Tunnel Rock
As the RS71 approaches Ronkonkoma station, the engineer slows the train to a 5 MPH crawl as they pass the KO 2E signal. NYAR freights with plate F cars in the consist are restricted to 5 as they pass through the station, presumably due to the presence of platforms on both sides of the tracks.
My second Twirl attempt, they are fun. And seeing as we are not allowed outside I have far too much time doing nothing.
:-)
I used my photo below in the first comment to create this Twirl.
Happy Sliders Sunday, processed to the max.
Took this photo in Greece, no idea what it is called, anyone know? Thanks
Thanks to Mark I now know this is a Thread Lacewing
I guess they might only be visible on a large screen, but there are tiny threads attached to this plant, left by spiders as they travel from flower to flower. I'm afraid I don't know the name of the plant, but at least it's not Helenium. I'm conscious that I'm a bit obsessed with Helenium at the moment, so I thought I'd better post something different today. :)
Taken with my Lensbaby Velvet 56mm.
Glide thread which I typically use for free motion sewing and typically are used for wall hangings as they are 100% polyester. I retired 5 years ago and still get up at 5 am and I then get in my room (with coffee) and create! Makes me VERY happy that I have this craft to keep me creative.
Smile on Saturday ~ thread
The Moirai or Fates were three sister deities, incarnations of destiny and life. Their names were Clotho, the one who spins the thread of life; Lachesis, she who draws the lots and determines how long one lives, by measuring the thread of life; and Atropos, the inevitable, she who chose how someone dies by cutting the thread of life with her shears. They were often described as being ugly and old women, stern and severe. Three days after a child was born, it was thought that the Moirai would visit the house to determine the child's fate and life. (www.greekmythology.com/Other_Gods/The_Fates/the_fates.html)
The shallow DOF here allowed for the focus to be right where the thread is through the hole. Fun with the macro lens.
Four needles and a little piece of thread!

After Amtrak cleared the TPW diamond in Chenoa, M-EPEF toned up the UP dispatcher and was able to get the light across in short order. TPW 3440, 5014, 2105, and HESR 3485 are seen here navigating the flange bearing diamond over UP's Joliet Sub with a lengthy train. Up front, stretched as far as you can see, are 62 Incobrasa hoppers, 50 of which were setout at Gilman. Originally, the Peoria crew was to get this train to La Hogue for an HL crew to continue east. However, they only made it at far as Chenoa which resulted in a nice chase over part of TPW's "west end".
