The Christmas tree is set up, but the lights don’t go on until the day after Thanksgiving. I was wrong about that statement on the lights. To discourage large crowds, they light the tree in a very low key way. Suddenly they are on!

Trailing the B&LE hopper train with a quartet of URR MP15DC's was URR 100. Every job on the Union Railroad runs with a caboose and this was no exception and always cool to see.

When Union Pacific brought some of their DDA40X, Centennial engines out of storage for a couple of months in 1984, I was fortunate enough to shoot a couple of them leading! Here is the #6912 heading Westbound at Mira Loma, CA in March of 1984.

The interlocking tower in Union City, Indiana is still hanging in there and looking pretty good. The tower controlled the diamond of the Big 4 (CCC&StL)/NYC/PC/CR Indianapolis Line from Cleveland to Indianapolis, aka the "Bee Line", and the PCC&StL (Panhandle)/PRR/PC/CR Columbus to Chicago main here. The PRR, which is long gone, came in at the upper right in the shot from Columbus and crossed the Big 4 at a shallow angle. Current day owner CSX still has a set of crossovers here and is known as CP-198.
Union Pacific 5939 leads a W. Elk Mine to Long Beach, CA loaded coal train Westbound on the N. Fork Branch near milepost 28, which is about 2 miles East of Bridgeport.
Towards the rear of the train are fruit orchards that the tracks run through and that use water from the Gunnison River, which the train is following alongside.

"I don't recognize the distinction between nature poetry and, what would be the other thing? Human civilization poetry? We are creatures of the earth who build our elaborate cities and beavers are creatures of the earth who build their elaborate lodges and canal operations and dams, just as we do. The human is unique in that it's taken over, but that's no reason to say that the human is of a different kind, a kind created in the image of some god while all the others are created in the image of mere lumps of dirt. . . . Poems about other creatures may have political and social implications for us."
Galway Kinnell (1927 - )

Here is another view of the downtown Seattle skyline, this time from the north over Lake Union, a freshwater lake. The capture was taken at Gasworks park, a former gas-utility power plant that has since become a public space.

We went to check out the Union Square Winter Walk last Saturday. There was not much to see except a few tents set up with just a few vendors. We walked past this stage and saw this guy singing Christmas songs to a thin crowd. I applauded his effort and professionalism. This was the only photo I got out of that place before moving onto the giant Christmas tree near the center of the square.

Montezuma, Parke County, Indiana
The West Union Covered Bridge is north-northeast of Montezuma, Indiana. The two-span Burr Arch Truss covered bridge structure was built by Joseph J. Daniels in 1876. It is notable for being the longest standing covered bridge in Parke County.
The West Union Covered Bridge is the third bridge to stand at this location. The Star Mill Covered Bridge was the first and then the Harrison Covered Bridge replaced it but was damaged in 1876 prompting the West Union Covered Bridge to be built. The bridge was finished in September 1876. The road was originally part of the "Indiana State Highway", established with Legislature in 1827, which connected Fort Wayne with Terre Haute. Along with the Armiesburg Covered Bridge it hosted stage coach traffic to Lafayette.
Not much is left of West Union today, only a handful of houses. Gone are the school, post office, and the railroad. The Wabash Erie Canal ran just west of town with a feeder canal running south of Sugar Creek and connecting to the west of the bridge. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad crossed Sugar Creek to the east of the bridge and past West Union on the west side. Little is left of evidence of the railroad or the canal today. Farmers reclaimed the land and farm most of it today.
West Union Bridge is the work of the prolific Indiana covered bridge builder Joseph J. Daniels (1826-1916) and is an excellent example of his use and development of the Burr Arch Truss. At 315' from portal to portal, the double-span bridge is the longest covered bridge in Parke County, a county known for its numerous covered bridges of considerable length. J.J Daniels built the bridge in 1876 to replace the previous bridge crossing Sugar Creek, also of his design and construction, which was destroyed by high water. Daniels built nearly sixty covered bridges in Indiana between 1855 and ca. 1900. The West Union Bridge represents a later Burr Arch Truss design.
