After a crew change in Rochelle,IL, the engineer walks back to the cab of the SD70ACe after inspecting the prime mover. No sooner was he back in the cab, the signal changes to green and off to work he goes down the Aurora Sub headed for Aurora, IL.
A cut-a-way what the Jesse James house looked like before the clap board siding was put on about 1900.

I like the Base Toys range for their screw construction and interchangeable parts which lend themselves so well to conversion work. This is one of my simpler efforts and started life as the GWR Foden DG ballast tractor; the chocolate and cream livery is rather attractive so I simply removed the logos with nail varnish remover rather than giving it a full repaint. In the back is a whitemetal Gardner 6LW generator set from Doug Roseaman and the living wagon on tow is a very old Fraction Models kit.
Linda and I had a great trip to South West Queensland over Easter and Anzac Day long weekend escaping the rainy weather on the coast. We enjoyed balmy 29°C days and cool campfire nights. We stayed at a marvellous property "Kilcowera" a 49,210 ha cattle station rattling with wildlife including a host of bird species. www.kilcowera.com.au/
I was a able to photograph a number of species new to me.
I hope that all my contacts had a wonderful Easter break as well, whether at home or away.
From my final project.
A shot from my back garden, I did a few of them because I have been wanting to for a while and I love the lighting in my garden so I decided to explore it in my project.

Gail Williams and I bumped into this grumpy looking fella in the Pearl District as we wandered about town. He was a little sweetie behind that gruff exterior.
I love the one tooth sticking out.
I'm trying to get a few better burn photos this year. It's pretty dramatic to see in person, but on film it often just looks like a bunch of murky haze. (Also it is not so easy to use a camera while wearing thick leather safety gloves.)
This was a burn we did up north in some nice jackpine barrens.
We always try to start the fire along the downwind boundary--something secure like a road, lake, or plowed line of bare dirt--and let it burn backwards into the wind until there is a nice safe burned-out zone on the downwind edge. If everything goes well you are always backing away from the smoke.
Jack pines tend to want to burst into flame--which is OK, really, (their seed cones actually require fire to open and germinate). They make quite a whooshing noise when they burn up. Sorry I didn't get any photos of that: it's all over in about 20 seconds. But near the edges of the burn unit we keep an eye on them and try to prevent them from going up and possibly throwing sparks into the air that could land outside the perimeter. If you see a pine starting to get too hot, you might need to run back into the smoke a bit.
Snow on the back porch. We didn't get much, but it's bitterly cold, and the dogs aren't at all pleased about having to go outside.

An unnamed Chief Keef superfan has a tattoo of the recently arrested rapper on her back (that is doubly unfortunate for not really looking like Keef at all). The pie...

Sit back and enjoy the ride once again
Inspired by some present-day Necedah pictures from Matt Holmen I dug into the archive for a look back at my favorite day at Necedah.
In April of 1997 BNSF and CP were experiencing major spring flooding along the Mississippi from St. Paul south that closed their mainlines. A variety of combined routings utilizing WC, UP and CP routes across Wisconsin kept the essential traffic moving. On April 12th I went out to Necedah where a decent spring snow squal of sticky flakes was underway. I was pleased to find a SOO geep stationed at the bottom of the loop connecting the UP Adams Line to the WC Valley Sub. Soon the SOO 6601 west emerged from the snow and I started to grasp the reason for the geep and crew, it was a helper/pilot engine assigned to Necedah for the day.
It looked to be a 425-type train consisting of flats carrying truck frames, large auto parts boxcars, and auto racks. After the right hand turn off the mainline at New Lisbon and the short trip up the Valley this train would push-pull around the connection loop then depart westbound on the Adams line to Wyeville, Eau Claire and ultimately St. Paul.
Clear of the loop switch the detour train has stopped and the 4417 is backing onto the rear of the detour to pull it backwards around the loop and up to the Adams Line.
Firefighters conducting a back burn in New South Wales. The fire season in Australia has been unprecedented. The United States has sent Department of the Interior (DOI) and U.S. Forest Service (USFS) wildfire personnel to assist with ongoing wildfire suppression efforts in Australia.
Based on requests from the Australian Fire and Emergency Service Authorities Council, the U.S. has intermittently deployed wildland USFS and DOI fire personnel throughout December and early January.

Re-exploring the darkroom makes me grateful for Photoshop yet I value the unique qualities a darkroom can bring to a photograph.
