The crew on this concrete ship doesn't have much to do since being turned into a tourist venture. So, they like to buy peanuts, invite their scrub jay buddies over and watch the jays dull their beaks trying to hammer holes in the concrete to hide the peanuts. Gulls are mean like that!

A westbound Union Pacific freight train rolls to a stop at Champ siding in Northeast Portland, Oregon. This is the Kenton Line, which bypasses Albina Yard. The train will change crews and proceed to Tacoma.
After getting back from our adventures with the Dodger and riding the Fort Smith Trolley we returned to Poteau where we would be spending the night again. With a couple hours of daylight left we lucked into a southbound train getting ready to depart and decided to give chase for our first look at Rich Mountain, the Kansas City Southern's own mountain railroad. Shooting trains on the KCS mainline was a core mission for our trip and the last two full days would be devoted to such.
From an elevation of about 500 ft the railroad climbs to about 1600 over the next 30 miles to surmount the Ouachita Mountains with the ruling grade topping out around 1.5%. This is not the most dramatic mountain crossing by a long shot, but it is a historic piece of railroad and challenging enough to put on a decent show worthy of a visit or two, particularly while it remains unchanged as the KCS.
Here is a MKCSH2 02 (second Kansas City to Shreveport manifest) on Main 2 paused beside the 1960s standard plan depot and yard office that are signatures of the original KCS. After a quick crew change they will throttle up for a quick run to Zoe before biting into the grade up to Page and Rich Mountain.

Had some cool combos for a Star Wars episode II-III era inspired crew. The Rodian head couldn't fit that armor piece more perfectly, it even has a little notch in the back for the head ridges.
The droid is a IG series model retrofitted with hydraulic lift arms to move their cargo around.
Left to right we have the energy-based specialist, IG-81 "Iggy", the captain/mission coordinator, the jump trooper, and the scout.

The old Cheyenne airport terminal in the back ground. A flight crew heading into the terminal. It was nice little air show.
Mrs P and myself recently visited the RNLI college in Poole, Dorset, a very impressive state of the art facility, something I have wanted to do for some time.
We booked ‘The Discovery Tour’ details of which can be found on the internet.
We can highly recommend this tour to people from all walks of life.
There were many reasons for wanting to do this tour, living by the coast all our lives and our fascination of the sea being one. Also there are three lifeboat stations a short distance from home which we look in on a regular basis, one of these being a station with an all weather boat.
Sadly but not least a Father and Son, both friends of ours ended up in the sea locally following a freak accident many years ago. Arriving on scene The RNLI were faced with a 3 meter breaking sea, plus waves rebounding off the cliff face. Following an extremely dangerous manoeuvre the boats helm took the boat in stern first, close into the cliffs under extreme conditions.
Locating the one casualty whose condition was deteriorating rapidly, the crew got him on board got away from the cliff where he was transferred to a helicopter and taken to hospital which saved his life.
Sadly his father had died in the accident, but once again the crew in the most challenging of circumstances returned to the scene, carried out an incredible manoeuvre in order to recover the Fathers body so the family could lay him to rest.
Following this outstanding rescue all three crew members were awarded gallantry medals by the RNLI, with the helm awarded the Silver medal.
I have the greatest admiration and respect for the crews as in the main they are all non paid volunteers who go out in all manner of weather conditions to save the lives of others.
Some stations which have an all weather boat do have one crew member mainly a mechanic on station who does get paid. But these stations are in the minority.
On the way home from Poole, we decided to drop in on Kimmeridge Bay, a location I have wanted to visit and photograph. Conditions were not ideal, but what is it they say, ‘you have to photograph what is in front of you’.
A word of caution to anyone visiting here. An old trick of mine over the years even before I got a camera is to get a nearby stone and skim it across any rocks. If the stone takes off like a long dog you know the rocks are very slippery.
When I threw a stone across these lovely inviting rocks, the stone took off like a bullet. So though they did not look it at first glance these are very slippery indeed, so please take care.
Thank you for viewing my photos, the comments and banter are so appreciated.
