Okmulgee Oklahoma has some beautiful buildings from days gone by. When I see these old beautiful buildings it is hard to imagine these were brand new at some point in the not to distant past. This building has not been restored, but still has lots of character.

Interior shot of the CIBC building at 25 King Street West in Toronto.
Completed in 1931, this building is the "Grande Dame" of Toronto's banking institutions. Designed by New York architects York and Sawyer, the 34-storey edifice casts a shadow of grandeur over the much larger structures that now dominate the city's Financial District. Located two blocks west of Yonge Street, this Romanesque building lends a sense of security to all who enter. The ground floor, with its banking rooms and grand lobbies, is decorated with wrought-iron detail and gilded mouldings that offer a sense of part revenue and part reverence.

An Amtrak Surfliner heads east with one of the heritage units leading the way. I like this scheme.
Originally named Edith when she launched from the shipyards of Liverpool in 1863, she steamed under a Bahamian flag for a year as she ran blackmarket cargo through the Union Naval blockade between Confederate ports and Havana. Another successful run through the blockade landed her to port in Wilmington, North Carolina, where she was officially pressed into service in 1864 by the Confederacy. Renamed Chickamauga, she was used as a commerce raider against Northern shipping interests until her boiler overheated during a pursuit and exploded, killing the entire crew.
On a new backdrop, she looks a lot better. I eliminated one of the smokestacks to match the single boiler below decks, and I rearranged a few things on the fore deck to make room for a cannon.
Two historic means of commerce cross. The Chicago and Rock Island Railroad (initially the LaSalle and Rock Island Railroad) and the Hennepin Canal cross as they make their way across north central Illinois. This is Lock 7 on the canal between the small towns of Tiskilwa and Bureau Jct.
Both were conceived from the need to connect the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers to cut hundreds of miles off of river navigation. The canal was thought of first, years before the idea for the railroad, but the process was held up for many years for various reasons. Then the idea of a railroad was born. Work on that progressed quite quickly compared to that of the canal. In the mid 1850's the RR was completed from Chicago (its new origin point) to Rock Island, IL on the Mississippi river. It wasn't until 1907 that the canal opened for navigation. By then there wasn't much need for the canal at all and it saw very little use. An interesting note about the construction of the canal. It was the first canal that used poured concrete for the locks instead of cut limestone.
Once the Chicago and Rock Island railroad had reached the river, it built the first bridge across the Mississippi and kept heading west. It soon became the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific, later referred to as the Rock Island, and eventually simply called the Rock.
The rails are still in use today by the Iowa Interstate Railroad, although only one set of tracks cross the double track iron bridge. The canal is a state park with miles of bicycle/walking trail along the never-used tow path.
I love this spot along the canal, only about 5 miles from my house down a dead end country road.
