Red Powder Puff (Scientific name: Calliandra haematocephala) is a tropical evergreen shrub of the family Fabaceae that makes hemispherical flowers like red cosmetic puffs bloom. What looks like a flower is an aggregate of stamen. In the same department, the tree height is higher than Kari Andor · eriophylla (Calliandra eriophylla) also called hinemu (scallet agreement)
"Tugs have been towing aggregate-laden barges out of British Columbia’s Pitt River and on down the Fraser River since the days of wooden scows and steam-powered tugs. Since the earliest days the boats have had to contend with the railway bridge about three miles upstream from the Pitt’s confluence with the Fraser River. Over the generations, skippers have learned a lot about the tides and river currents that challenged the old steam power and continue to challenge the modern diesel-powered tugs. This is not stuff that is taught in maritime training schools. It is knowledge that is learned by making the run with an experienced captain and finally by new captains feeling their way into the job."

The sun struggles to shine through the milky cloud cover, as train CT-1 with three B39-8s for power approach Route 150 in Wallingford. This train takes stone loads from Tilcons Reeds Gap quarry to Cedar Hill Yard. Later at night, a new crew operating as train CHFP will make the trip to Fresh Pond Yard in Queens, NY.

Before aggregate mining companies, housing developers, and Utah Transit Authority altered the landscape, the Jordan Narrows between Lehi and Riverton, Utah was a rural retreat with deer, birds, fish, and foxes for sightseers to enjoy. Utilizing trackage rights on the D&RGW granted late in 1985, Union Pacific's LUC51 rolls through the greenery with 71 cars for North Yard in Salt Lake City, Utah on July 8, 1993.
Just in time for the sun, which was in very short supply on the 25/4/21. Here we see DB Cargo locomotive 66018 departing from Toton early with the 13:10 empty metals service from Masborough FD to Cardiff Tidal TC on the afternoon of the 25/4/21, The train ran as 6Z77 throughout.

Excerpt from the plaque:
HueScape by Art Aggregate: With HueScape we want to encourage viewers to engage with the piece as both individual objects and as an immersive space. By shifting vantage points we can focus on the work as a tunnel or view it as a porthole drawing our attention through to the environment beyond the structures.
The work is a marker with delineating lines that mark one’s presence in time and the presence of an act upon the wood.
Freightliner 'Shed' 66588 runs the gauntlet of Friday night passengers and station staff as it rumbles slowly through Reading's platform 8 with the 6.34pm Churchyard Sidings - Whatley Quarry discharged aggregate hoppers (6V51).
Most freight is scheduled to run through platforms 12 and 13 (and, occasionally, 15) but keeping an eye on the virtual signal diagram while staying close to the footbridge can pay dividends for those last minute platform changes - as happened here.
In what is now a mostly rebuilt station, I do like the way the main legacy building has been retained and incorporated into the new structure - a comforting link to the station's heritage. Note too the homage to the station's previous name, Reading General, on the large-scale totem at right. Have to say I thought the 'General' name was given to the station much earlier during Great Western Railway ownership rather than post the 1948 nationalisation, but I could be mistaken.
What isn't in doubt are the sheer numbers of passengers using the facility - some 17million in the year prior to Covid. And, while current numbers are still well down on that, catching a train for the 36 mile ride to London, even in the mid-morning off-peak period, can still be a sardine-like experience.
I also noted that the line at platform 8 is roughly where the through line was in the 1970s. This was where the daily joy could be experienced of a Western passing through the station at speed at the head of the Up "Cornish Riviera Ltd'. Heady days for diesel-hydraulic spotters and snappers alike!
For this image I've opted to not over-egg the lighting, but instead keep it similar to the levels it actually was.

The smoke has once again returned, giving the sky a brown haze that has practically killed any good light here. I was already in the neighborhood, so I this anyways. 9/13/22.
