I played this game last week .... but now I found that Thursday is here again & it's too much fun not to go through the photo archives! I think we should all keep this going!
This is January 2010. Jason's sister Melody was having a slumber party ... only Jason's mom had to work late!
Poor Jason ... it was a few hours before he was able to meet up with Lauren, Keith, & Kiera!!!
They were all Juniors in High school back then!
I had this idea earlier today. This ginger boi is the "Classic" version of my sig-fig!
This is actually a little nostalgic even though I only changed him back in December. Probably because he was my sig-fig for somewhere around four-five years...
Anyway, this is the third "Throwback Thursday" I've done. Do you guys enjoy them? Because I think that would be something I would like to make a semi-regular thing. Let me know! Like, in the comments. Well, where else? :P
This week we are going back twenty-one years to 2004 and to RA 320 parked on Hawkins Street, dressed for route 38.
Route 38 has a bit of a complicated history. From 1939 to 1973 it ran between the City Centre and Ashtown, and from 1958 to 1972 it also ran between the City Centre and Kinvara Park. Services continued to run between the City Centre and Ashtown until 1977, but these were part of the 38A and 39 timetable. In the 1990s the 38 returned, this time between the City Centre and Lady's Well. From around 1994 to around 1998 it ran to Tyrrelstown before reverting back to Lady's Well. In 2002 it was extended to Damastown and the western terminus has remained there since. Also from 2002 until 2010 the city centre terminus was on Hawkins Street, as seen here. It then moved to the Burlington Road area. The route was never part of the CitySwift network.
RA 320 was new to Dublin Bus in 1996. It was withdrawn in 2007 and sold on to an operator in the United Kingdom.

GP60's used to roam the Lurgan pretty regularly, often running in threes or fours on hotshot intermodal trains between Altanta and Northern New Jersey. Since I started shooting the Lurgan regularly I've only managed to nab one up front, with most of the type running trains down south over the last six years. Thanks to a bad horn on the SD70ACe leading NS 747, NS 7120 had to be put on the front between Shenandoah, VA and Harrisburg, PA.
Messing around with different lantern looks. I used the Aquatic Ironman suit for most of him... tried re-creating his hover glider too. I'll post a full pic of what that looks like soon.
It's 90s all over again!
I was lucky enough to obtain both Roboforce figs from a local seller (try finding them in Europe!). All three Hydronauts were also there so I did not hesitate even for a second - turned the latter into a female crew as I've been itching to use those hair pieces. Also BW guns for everyone!
I think I will use most of these parts for some custom characters, but I thought they are worthy of a post for nostalgia's sake.
Remembering when there was lots of colour around!

Yesterday's post shows this rail fan extra with Erie Lackawanna E8's 816 and 823 crossing RT17K in Montgomery, NY. Today we are a couple of hundred yards to the south at Clinton St. where the station was. It appears the extra has paused for a bit. Maybe for a fan photo line. It also appears a few chasers were on hand.
I could be wrong, but in front of the station, it appears to have some sort of tilt order board signal.
I myself had several of my early chases as a passenger in a 1963 2 door Plymouth Fury like the one in the photo. It had 318 "big block" and push a button transmission. It was fast and rode as smooth as glass.

Whether you're into old cars, black & white or trains, this photo should grab some sort of interest.
Chicago & Eastern Illinois GP-7 #230 pauses on the house track at Momence, Illinois in April of 1965. Switchman Del Sommers is seen walking through the shot. The depot is at right.
C&EI GP7 #230 was built by EMD in August of 1951. Was later renumbered as MP #1634 and then later #634.

Remember them? I found this pic in my photo folder on my computer and I was immediately filled with memories, LOL.
Ah, they had potential to be a pretty awesome line. The clothes were on-trend and not all garishly pink with glitter. The dolls had sweet faces and even though the bodies were static, they were supposed to be like mannequins. I still see them on the shelves languishing with clearance prices. I loved the fashion packs. Those were awesome and had great pieces.

My first outing on the Country Club Plaza, way back in '04.
This fountain and several others in the area are still some of my favorite photo settings.
