The bottle train is nears the end of his eastbound run. Not before stabbing a westbound stack train on his home railroad at 502.
Pixy snuggling contentedly in front of the heater early this morning.

Argent drinking water in July of 2017 upstairs at our house in Yubari. During the winter, she loved the heater but in the summer thought the water was much more entertaining.
So today, I forgot my camera. I dug out my old EOS 400D with it's original kit lens, and a tiny CF card that could only hold two RAW files.
It still worked!
We stopped in Middletown, VA at the visitor center for the Cedar Creek and Belle Grove National Historical Park. It is a park in development, only being created by Congress in 2002. Although there are over 3,700 acres within the park's authorized boundary, over half of it is still privately owned. Much of the battlefield is not accessible to the public.
Cedar Grove Farm was acquired in 1845 by Solomon Heater as the center of a 326 acre farm. Solomon Heater was a skilled and conscientious farmer, his wife an astute and tenacious businesswoman. By the outbreak of the Civil War, the Heaters had built their property into a very prosperous farm of between 500-600 acres that stretched along both sides of the Valley Turnpike (now US-11). Battle maps prepared by the Confederate cartographer Jed Hotchkiss indicate that during the Battle of Cedar Creek in October 1864, Union and Confederate troops were deployed on Heater property along both sides of the Pike.
On October 19, 1864, the Confederates, under Lieutenant General Jubal A. Early, surprised the Federal army at Cedar Creek and routed the VIII and XIX Corps, implementing a masterfully conceived and brilliantly executed tactical plan. General Philip Sheridan arrived from Winchester, rallied his troops and, in the afternoon, launched a crushing counterattack that succeeded in recovering the battlefield and in wresting control of the Shenandoah Valley from the Confederates. The Battle of Cedar Creek was a crucial Union victory that nearly annihilated Early’s Confederate army and, coupled with Sherman’s March to the Sea, helped Lincoln secure his reelection at a time when the northern populace was divided over the war.
The heater building, as labeled on the 1926 Sanborn Map, was located on the southern side of the Fisk Tire Company's mammoth plant in Chicopee Falls, MA

Bonkers and Argent, both dressed in tunics, near the heater in the kitchen of our house in Yubari, Hokkaido.
A very small gas room heater I found in a Columbia antique store. The cast iron parts are very old. Someone made a new combustion chamber out of heavy-gauge aluminum flue pipe. I have not been able to find out anything about the Puritan brand. Has an unusual (to me) doughnut-shaped burner that has no orifice, air intake or "bell", it's just straight-piped. I do not know what kind of gas would be used with that type of burner, maybe a carbide system? (I would have just said acetylene, but I don't want to look up the spelling.)
