Early action on the FGLK, as borrowed Buffalo & Pittsburgh GP-9 No. 209 powers a local move along Milton Avenue between Solvay and Camillus on 29 September 1995.
A Baroque-Mannerist church of Palermo. The church belongs to the Camillians (also known as "Crociferi").
The original design was probably prepared in Rome. In Palermo many architects were involved in the construction: Giovanni Macolino, Giacomo Amato, Giuseppe Clemente Mariani, Ferdinando Lombardo and Giuseppe Venanzio Marvuglia. The church was open in 1660, but because of financial difficulties, the construction was completed only in 1750 with the conclusion of the façade designed by Ferdinando Lombardo. The church houses many artworks of important artists.
Some relics of Saint Camillus are held in the church.

Dissimulé dans l’arrière-pays dalmate, en Croatie, et appartenant au territoire du parc national de Krka, l’ancien camp de la Légion Romaine de Burnum a été construit à la charnière de deux périodes de domination romaine.
Selon certaines sources, une rébellion menée par Lucius Arruntius Camillus Scribonianus contre Claude en 42, commença dans ce camp. Après le départ de la dernière légion romaine, le camp se transforma en colonie urbaine.
Le camp fut complètement détruit quand l'empereur Justinien a essayé de le reprendre des Ostrogoths au VIe. Cet amphithéâtre est le seul sur le territoire Croate.
Hidden in the Dalmatian hinterland of Croatia and belonging to the territory of the Krka National Park, the former Roman Legion camp of Burnum was built at the crossroads of two periods of Roman domination.
According to some sources, a rebellion led by Lucius Arruntius Camillus Scribonianus against Claudius in 42, began in this camp. After the departure of the last Roman legion, the camp was transformed into an urban colony.
The camp was completely destroyed when Emperor Justinian tried to recapture it from the Ostrogoths in the 6th century. This amphitheater is the only one on Croatian territory.
Historic House built in 1856 ~ NRHP
The Wilcox Octagon House is a historic home in Camillus, New York, USA, that was built in 1856 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. It was the farmhouse home of Isaiah Wilcox, who had a 40-acre farm.
Piazza del Campidoglio ("Capitoline Square") is a public square (piazza) on the top of the ancient Capitoline Hill, between the Roman Forum and the Campus Martius in Rome, Italy. The square includes three main buildings, the Palazzo Senatorio (Senatorial Palace) also known as the Comune di Roma Capitale (City Hall), and the two palaces that make up the Capitoline Museums, the Palazzo dei Conservatori and the Palazzo Nuovo, considered to be one of the oldest national museums, founded in 1471 when Pope Sixtus IV donated some of the museum's most impressive statues, the She-wolf, the Spinario, the Fatoosh, the Camillus and the colossal head of emperor Constantine. Over the centuries the museums' collection has grown to include many of ancient Roman's finest artworks and artifacts. If something was considered too valuable or fragile in Rome and a copy was made in its place for display, the original is likely now on display in the Capitoline Museum.The hilltop square was designed by Michelangelo in the 16th century. at the behest of Pope Paul III. —- Wikipedia

A pair of Finger Lakes Railway's GP38-2's lead the way west on a September afternoon as they lead GS-2, passing through Camillus, New York as it begins the return leg of its journey from Solvay to Geneva. These tracks were once part of the New York Central's Auburn Road, so the NYC Lighting Stripe inspired scheme of the FGLK is right at home here.

St. Camillus Catholic Church (1915) in Farrellton (Township of Low), Quebec, Canada.
It was erected in 1915, replacing its predecessor erected in 1850 by local Irish colonists. It holds regular Sunday morning services.
The village of Farellton was named in honor of one of its pioneers, Patrick Farrell, an Irish colonist. He came to Canada in 1831 and settled in the Gatineau Valley in 1840. He became the first postmaster of Upper Wakefield (Farrellton), working there from 1872 to 1881.
"New Favorite" is actually a 2001 song by Alison Krauss & Union Station, but I never liked pickin' favorites and that's why of all the shots we got today I picked this one. It was, after all, because of this SD38 that we were out in the first place. As we headed west, things just seemed to keep gettin' better and better; wait'll you see what my co-pilot has to offer!

#PiazzadeiCrociferi prende il nome dai religiosi ospitalieri creati da S. Camillo de Lellis nel 1584 per l'assistenza agli infermi presso i quali si recavano portando in mano una croce lignea, in seguito sostituita da una di panno rosso cucita sulla tonaca. Nella foto, scattata da #MarinoAbbatelli, una tipica carrozza romana è ripresa alla confluenza sulla adiacente #PiazzadiTrevi dove sorge la celebre fontana le cui rocce in travertino cominciano proprio in corrispondenza dello spigolo comune tra le due piazze.
Piazza dei Crociferi takes its name by the Religious Hospitallers created by St. Camillus de Lellis in 1584 for the assistance to sick people, as they were carrying in his hand a wooden cross, later replaced by a red cloth sewn into the frock. In the photo, taken by Marino Abbatelli, a typical Roman carriage appears at the confluence of the adjacent Piazza di Trevi where the famous fountain stands and where the travertine stones of the same fountain start just at the common edge between the two squares.

Finger Lakes Railway road train GS2 is hustling west home to Geneva with their inbound interchanged picked up in Solvay. They are seen here at about MP 8.6 on their mainline passing the old Camillus Passenger station which now is attached to a car wash that I mostly attempted to crop out at right. The run down station saw its last scheduled passenger train call in 1958 but it and many other depots along this scenic route have survived in repurposed roles more than 60 years on.
Leading the train are consecutively numbered GP38-2s 2002 (blt. May 1966 as a GP40 CN 4005) and 2003 (blt. Jan. 1967 as a GP40 MILW 154) dressed in sharp 'lighting stripe' paint that pays homage to the New York Central heritage of the old 'Auburn Road.'
Camillus, New York
Thursday October 28, 2021
This beautiful flower has rather a significant meaning, or if not significant at least interesting. Meaning:religious attendant, priest's helper. Camilla is a feminine name of Portuguese origin. It is derived from the word "camillus," meaning "religious attendant" or "priest's helper." In ancient Rome, the role of the camillus was to assist the cleric with delivering a faithful service.

Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption, Covington KY

Construction of the cathedral began under the Diocese of Covington's third bishop, Camillus Paul Maes, in 1895 to replace an 1834 frame church that was inadequate for the growing congregation. Pope Pius XII elevated the cathedral to the rank of minor basilica December 8, 1953.
Finger Lakes Railway 2201 is a GE U23B originally blt. Mar. 1974 as Louisville and Nashville 2772. After passing to successors Seaboard System and CSXT it was sold to the Providence and Worcester and spent nearly two decades in New England before being sold to the FGLK in 2006. Dressed in Lehigh Valley Red Cornell Red paint it pays homage to the dominant railroad in the modern day FGLK's home town of Geneva and the small portion of LV main that the railroad operates.
But the trackage here is the ex New York Central 'Auburn Road' a secondary line that dates from 1838. Becoming part of the New York Central System in 1853 it was actually one of three parallel lines the NYC came to own between Syracuse and Rochester. It somehow survived to be passed to successors Penn Central and Conrail before finally being spun off to the newly created Finger Lakes in 1995. Today 76 miles of the Auburn Road from Solvay (just outside Syracuse) to Canandaigua survives under FGLK auspices and here on the east end of that route is where we find 2201. The one man RCO crewmember on the Solvay Switcher job SH2 is making a little smoke for me as he burbles along through a curve near MP 5 heading west light engine to switch out the Westrock warehouse located about three miles east of the yard.

The Papal Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican (Italian: Basilica Papale di San Pietro in Vaticano), or simply Saint Peter's Basilica (Latin: Basilica Sancti Petri), is a church built in the Renaissance style located in Vatican City, the papal enclave that is within the city of Rome, Italy. It was initially planned by Pope Nicholas V and then Pope Julius II to replace the aging Old St. Peter's Basilica, which was built in the fourth century by Roman emperor Constantine the Great. Construction of the present basilica began on 18 April 1506 and was completed on 18 November 1626.
Designed principally by Donato Bramante, Michelangelo, Carlo Maderno and Gian Lorenzo Bernini, St. Peter's is the most renowned work of Renaissance architecture and the largest church in the world by interior measure. While it is neither the mother church of the Catholic Church nor the cathedral of the Diocese of Rome (these equivalent titles being held by the Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran in Rome), St. Peter's is regarded as one of the holiest Catholic shrines. It has been described as "holding a unique position in the Christian world" and as "the greatest of all churches of Christendom."
Catholic tradition holds that the basilica is the burial site of Saint Peter, chief among Jesus's apostles and also the first Bishop of Rome (Pope). Saint Peter's tomb is supposedly directly below the high altar of the basilica, also known as the Altar of the Confession. For this reason, many popes have been interred at St. Peter's since the Early Christian period.
St. Peter's is famous as a place of pilgrimage and for its liturgical functions. The pope presides at a number of liturgies throughout the year both within the basilica or the adjoining St. Peter's Square; these liturgies draw audiences numbering from 15,000 to over 80,000 people. St. Peter's has many historical associations, with the Early Christian Church, the Papacy, the Protestant Reformation and Catholic Counter-reformation and numerous artists, especially Michelangelo. As a work of architecture, it is regarded as the greatest building of its age. St. Peter's is one of the four churches in the world that hold the rank of Major papal basilica, all four of which are in Rome, and is also one of the Seven Pilgrim Churches of Rome. Contrary to popular misconception, it is not a cathedral because it is not the seat of a bishop; the cathedra of the pope as bishop of Rome is at Saint John Lateran (Wikipedia).
