The Lofoten islands are one of those creations of our Planet which are a double edged sword. they are of unbelievable natural beauty which we nowadays admire from the commodity of a well made road and a 4x4 car. But the lives of the locals have been extremely tough for centuries, so they are enjoying their hard gained comforts with pride.
Darst Road is known for its birds, but it’s also located in farm and pasture land. Waiting in the fog at the end of the road to see birds I could only hear, many cows began walking across the pasture up to me (or as close as they could get) in anticipation of a morning feeding. The yellow tag on their right ear has a date and the red tag in their left ear has the name of the ranch with two phone numbers. Cow. Commodity. Commerce. Consumption. Beasley, Texas.
Led to this abandonment and yet they are the reason this is still standing perhaps. If prices were higher, I think this would be bulldozed and farmed over.
Is tourism a modern form of commodity fetishism? Does it devalue the lives of many of the people living in these cities? The short answer - yes.
NYS&W engine 3018 leads 19 loads of asphalt through Syracuse, NY. The cars are going to Suit-Kote in Cortland, one of this railroad's biggest customers.
A rather scruffy looking TT114 leads 2196 through Tahmoor, with TT109 at the rear, heading for Cooks River with a load of aggregate stone from Marulan.
Introduced for coal working, the TT class are now spread across Pacific National still either on coal, or diversified into stone and intermodal duties, however where ever they are, they're still stained from coal.

Electricity and Lumber Drags... We'll save the others for a different hopeless section of the internet..
So close and yet so far away, when I woke up I went looking for activity on the grid; there was a 3QKDBJ 13 (H-VAWFRS3) at South Sacramento moving into position for a spot at Hammer Lane to sit and wait for the gridlock at El Pinal to clear up, as well as a Long Beach getting dragged out to Acampo. Then there was BNSF 7391 west holding the siding at James waiting for the Gypsum empties to get by before proceeding down the Canyon Subdivision with a fully loaded ten-thousand ton, six-thousand foot lumber yard on wheels which I thought was gonna be easy catch at either Craig or Mounkes; that was the wrong assumption train beat me to Mounkes by about ten minutes. So after flipping around and a quick jog down Highway 70 I landed at the south end of the siding at Pleasant Grove which had a maintainer working there, so no searchlights this time...
Steel coils squeal through the curve at Indiana Harbor, moving south on the IHB main after having just crossed NS's Chicago Line.
A variety of bulk commodities such as lumber, sugar, and sand all get transloaded at the yard in Landisville. Here, the 8651 pulls out a string of cars for spotting. Taken on railroad property with permission and escort.
CSXT L059 switches tank cars at Baker Commodities in North Billerica, MA. This customer recently came back online after the 2022 CSX-Pan Am acquisition.
Three types of trains meet on the quadruple-track thoroughfare that bisects downtown Birmingham, Alabama. The busiest railroad hotspot in Alabama, one can easily see upwards of 5 trains an hour here, if one's luck holds out. The two far tracks are part of CSX's Boyles Terminal Subdivision, while the two middle tracks are part of Norfolk Southern's Alabama Division. The two overgrown sidings at left are not in service. It's quite possible to see all four mainlines occupied simultaneously, or at the very least 3 out of 4, as shown here. A Union Pacific SD70ACe lends a hand to an eastbound Norfolk Southern manifest freight, while two CSX southbounds, a loaded coal and a stacker, wait for their turn to cross the interlocking.

The latest in Norfolk Southern’s DC to AC conversion program is SD70ACC 1800, seen here fresh out of the Juniata Paint Shop in Altoona, Penn. Originally built in 1994 as EMD SD70 #2537, 1800 was rebuilt by Progress Rail’s facility in Muncie, Indiana, to include a new safety cab and electrical upgrades to provide AC traction. The yellow color represents Progress Rail's parent company, Caterpillar. The unit will work in revenue service across the NS system.

Norfolk Southern GP60 7109 was just beginning its short trek over the former PRR Panhandle with a bottle train as it pulled across CSX's former B&O main in Riverdale.
The train is a pretty hot one to catch around town-literally; It runs from Dolton to the Arcelor-Mittal Steel plant in East Chicago over the Indiana Harbor Belt.

Steel and coal. Two major commodities that intersect in the Calumet Region of this area. Lakefront Yard at East Chicago, Indiana.
The C&NW was my favorite Midwestern carrier from afar, but my pictures of it are precious and few. Here's an off kilter scene from
29 June 1989 at Wheaton IL of a coal train led by SD40-2
duo 6811-6878 in two paint variations.
Belt Railway of Chicago SD40-2 312 rests at 100th Street Yard in South Chicago. Coke hoppers, just delivered by the BRC, sit at KCBX Terminals in the background. Looming above everything is the Chicago Skyway (I-90) toll bridge.
every time meredith grey (grey's anatomy series ) said : pick me - choose me - love me !
i feel so bad cause by these words i feel like the world stops !
like all the humanity feelings go down .
i dunno why i feel these words make us just like any thing to buy
like we are soo cheap !
like a commodity !
I think if love dosn't raise us up, it isn't love at all
if the love makes us down and humiliates us so it is nothing about love !
it's about making our self so cheap and so available ..
if we force the ppl we love to love us , or choose us , if we begged them even if they don't want ..
isnt an insult ?!
let love raise us above every thing ,, let it improve our live and support us and not make things difficult
let it be the strongest point not the weakest .. !
it isn't love unless we feel much better !!
* don't use it in any way
no one is allowed to use this photo or any piece of my photos. no themes no modifications ...etc
plz respect the rights .
With so many in storage due to the downturn in traffic, finding a "Barn" on a train in a sea of GEVO's, let alone leading, has become a scarcity. So when I saw that when E231 came through the St. Clair Tunnel with CN 2447, a 8-40CM, I figured I had to take the time to go and see. Thanks to 'Guy" for unknowingly motivating me to go shoot it, especially since I was the one who told him it was coming so he could shoot it.
