This is where the first light of dawn is shining on the body of a double decker train parked at a station in the suburb. The people you see in shadow are waiting for the first train of the day for Chicago to come. Taken at 5:49 a.m.
Yet another foggy day; we've had a few recently.
A group of hopeful commuters wait for a bus to appear out of the fog.
"Paris Streets 211, Commuters' View." Many Paris commuters see The Seine (la Seine), the Bridge of Bir-Hakeim (Pont de Bir-Hakeim), and the Eiffel Tower (la Tour Eiffel) when traveling to and from work. I photographed this commuters' view of Paris from Georges Pompidou Way (Voie Georges Pompidou).

It seems like even this pandemic is not over yet, many goverments around the globe started taking more relaxed quarantine measures. People will now be able to go out more often, many businesses will reopen and public transportation will start to see more commuters again. I personally feel like we are far from over with this virus but, i am not an expert by any means. Time will tell if this was a step forward or if another wave of case will sweep all the countries. As of now, it feels like urban societies are trying to figure out how to return to their normal days. It's going to be weird in the beginning but I think eventually we will be over with this. take care and stay safe!
Tiësto - Suburban Train
The long shadow and warm light capture a moment of quiet anticipation. The lone bicycle rests by the empty rock, waiting for a friend to join it, while the wooden bench invites a moment of rest. It perfectly captures the stillness right after the workday ends. Before the area fills up again tomorrow, the city takes a deep breath.
It’s the quiet moments that often make the best photos. Thank you so much for every view, fave, and kind thought you leave here.
Den långa skuggan och det varma ljuset fångar ett ögonblick av stillsam förväntan. Den ensamma cykeln vilar vid den tomma stenen, väntar på att en vän ska ansluta, medan den träbänk inbjuder till en stunds vila. Det fångar perfekt den stillhet som infinner sig precis efter arbetsdagens slut. Innan området fylls igen imorgon, tar staden ett djupt andetag.
The evening commute home from Chingford Station. The bus has the incorrect route number (377 instead of 379) which it drove about with for most of the evening.
Given an oil painting treatment.
A westbound commuter train led by a classic B&O torpedo-tube GP9 is seen at Randolph Rd crossing, west of Garrett Park in the summer of 1974. The crossing looks rather diminutive compared to this scene today, but for 1974 standards everything looks fairly substantial. When the Metropolitan Sub was re-signaled and configured for 261 running, Randolph Rd also gained a set of intermediate signals immediately east of the crossing. Today, the signal is westbound-only. Randolph Road crossing also serves the distinction as being the first place I iced a pedestrian as an engineer. They don't call this spot "Suicide Alley" for nothing! No photographer listed, JL Sessa collection.
A northbound MARC GP40WH-2 emerges from the B&P Tunnel in Baltimore with a mid-morning commuter train from DC.
The F45-noses on those MK rebuilds really looked great; it's hard to believe how quickly the stuff taken for granted goes away.
Tri-Rail GP49H-3 812 brings up the markers of a deadhead move through Metrorail Transfer Station after running P627 to Miami Airport. I believe the 812 is one of four active GP49H-3s on Tri-Rail's roster (out of six they roster).
For a week in August 1974, Norfolk & Western assigned its bicentennial unit, SD45 1776, to the Orland Park commuter train in Chicago. On August 14th, the commuter crosses the Calumet Sag Channel just north of Palos Park. Photo by Joe McMillan.
