After taking pictures of the interior of the Titanic in 1912 I decided to use a 3D model of the wreck to take some with a submarine in Second Life.
(Sorry for that sort of green reflection but it was a pain to edit this dark picture! :v )
I think this is the first time Scott and I have posted a photo of the same subject in our 365 shots...

Bow Creek Cornworthy South Hams Devon.
An image that I have visualized for a number of years (can be seen in the distance down the creek on few of my uploaded images) needing the tide and mist to work together.
It is gradually disintegrating by the wall bounding Hayle Estuary, Lelant. I have taken several photos of it over the years.
Had this photo of a school of African Pompano, circling a wreck in my minds eye for a while now. So grateful to capture it finally.
First try with a new GoPro during my vaca... Lot's of bad pics (it's tougher than it looks!), but I thought this was a decent one the shipwreck down the beach.
A night image of the Karrakatta wreck at Husvik whaling station. My friend and I ventured out to this wreck from our campsite during the night trying to avoid being bitten by seals along the way in the dead of night. We played around light painting the wreck until we got too cold.

Man, I love train wrecks.
But to clear up any possible misunderstanding, this is a photoshop treatment of a real photo of a real train wreck. Believe it or not, this is NOT a model.
Pan Am Railways Train WA-R smokes it up as they pass through the "Dirty Lew" on 1/16/2022.
At the time Pan Am was in the process of cleaning up several derailments around the network. In December of 2021 Sappi-3 stacked up about 15 cars on the Hinkley Branch, two of which the 175 ton road cranes couldn't rerail. The "repaired" section through the derailment site ultimately resulted in 4 more derailments over the following months. While it seemed like Pan Am had the intention of leaving those two loaded paper cars for CSX to clean up, not wanting to bring out the two wreck trains, a derailment in Saco caused by the crew of PO-3 running a derail for the second time in a week, resulted in several LPG cars flipping over.
Since those weighed too much for one of the road cranes to rerail, they brought out both the Waterville wreck set with the 200 ton Brownhoist crane and support cars and the East Deerfield wreck set with a 250 ton Brownhoist and two Cat 583H pipelayers.
In the end, the flatcar the exB&M pipelayer rode on and its support car got kicked out at North Chelmsford, after one of the friction bearing trucks overheated. As a result, the wreck crews had to use just the cranes to rerail the cars, normally only doing one per day.
Since the train was already in Maine, the decision was made to send it to the Hinkley Branch to recover the two paper cars.
So on the morning of 1/16/2022 the train was supposed to depart Rigby before sunrise, to get into position at the derailment site in Hinkley.
Well, per the usual train WAPO lost enough of its units, that it died in Portland blocking the busy Forest Ave. With no available power or crews, the train had to block the single track main until a maintainer got enough of the units going to get the train to Rigby. By that point the original crew had timed out and it was some time before a yard crew could be freed up to come and drag the train into Rigby.
Several Downeasters piled up waiting for the traffic jam to clear as well. This resulted in the wreck train finally getting out after lunch.
Things wouldn't be smooth sailing, in Cumberland Center the leader MEC B40-8 5973 sprung a coolant leak and ran out of water, before shutting down. Not long after taking the Backroad at Royal Jct the train had to stop due to sticking brakes. There were several more stops at New Glouster and Danville Jct before the issue was finally resolved. By the time they were rolling across the L/A bridge light was quickly fading.
Due to traffic I got behind them at Leeds Jct and didn't pick them up again until Readfield (despite the 20 MPH restriction for plain bearing cars I think they were going faster). By that point all the light was shot.
The train would rerail the two cars over the following days before the Waterville set was left at Waterville, while the ED set languished at Yard 8 in Portland for a few months before returning to East Deerfield prior to the takeover.
Since then the equipment has been scattered. The 470 Club got the Waterville baggage car and idler flat, the rigging car, the MEC dozer rigging car, B&M wheel car and the exMEC flatcar. The Railroad Museum of New England got the exB&M troop sleeper and the exB&M caboose that was welded to a flatcar. The Batten Kill and the SC&H got the other flat car, the ED baggage car, the exB&M flatcar and the 250 ton crane and idler, however I think they have since passed up the the latter two. I believe the Waterville dining car is still up for grabs, while the 200 ton crane despite being donated to the 470 Club, was sold to a buyer out of PA. The two Cat 583H's were sold to a company in the MA area which does work for CSX and a few other railroads.
The loss of the Pan Am wreck train was truly the end of an era for railroading in North America. The retirement of the train under CSX marked the end of the wreck train, something which had been used by railroads to clean up wrecks for over 100 years. It is worth noting a few railroads still retain a few cranes, however to my knowledge, none still employ a dedicated train and I haven't heard of any cranes being used in the modern era.

Airlander 10 wreck, Cardington, Bedfordshire, 19 Nov 2017
Airlander broke free of its moorings on the morning of 18th November. It didn't travel far, but it looks a write-off.
So my folks and I moved to our old house in California to our new one in Colorado. When we were about two hours from our new home my dad wrecked his truck. He’s fine now and out of the hospital but the doctors still don’t know why he blacked out while driving. At first they thought he had a stroke but now they’re not so sure. Two of our seven dogs were in the truck with him and were thrown from it as the truck rolled over a couple times. They’re also fine and in fact had no injuries at all they’re were just a little sore and the vet gave them some painkillers. Among the Suff of ours that was in his truck was my backpack with all my cameras and lenses. It was thrown out as the truck rolled over and when it stopped it ended up on top of my camera bag. My laptop was also thrown out and destroyed along with my hard drives with all my photos I’ve ever taken. I know at least one of my lenses was crushed in the bag but it seems my cameras survived. I’ll be testing my equipment whenever I het a chance to see what all broke and what still works. I’m talking with the insurance to see if they’re replace any of my equipment that was broken. So this is why the quality of my uploads has gone down lately I’m stuck with either re-editing old photos to upload with my phone or take new ones with only my phone. Only problem is my camera on the phone only seems to work sometimes. I’m still trying to keep up my daily upload schedule it’s just for now my photos won’t quite be what they usually are till I can get my equipment replaced. At least everyone was ok and we still had a merry Christmas in our new home with all of us including our dogs safe and happy.
This is another shot of the wreck that I came across during my coast walk. This rusting hulk is on the shore of The Fleet.
Going outside on a walk, thinking I'd take some half-ass nature pics, I stumbled over this completely burnt-out wreck of an old car. Best birthday present ever :)
TriX and Rodinal... I'm going to have to start buying this stuff in bulk!
