Bridge crossing on the Menominee River near Pembine, Wisconsin. One side of the bridge is Wisconsin and the other side is Michigan. Wide enough for one vehicle only. Notice the make-shift fixup job of tree lumber to maintain the rail support. Bracketed exposures used for HDR work with Photomatix and Photoshop Elements.

Deep in the Cheakamus Canyon, CN track evaluation train No. 999 is headed north across the Cheakamus River. This was the second "freight" to run this year on the mothballed section of the Squamish Subdivision. With CN running the weed spray train a week prior.
I was passing between the neo-Classical pillars of the Royal Scottish Academy on one of my Lockdown daily walks, and paused for a few moments, camera peering between the pillars to look at the pedestrian crossing where Hanover Street meets Princes Street, and shot a few snaps of people coming and going across it.

“How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank.
Here will we sit, and let the sounds of music
Creep in our ears; soft stillness, and the night
Become the touches of sweet harmony.” (William Shakespeare)

The 07:45 Jaipur Junction to Churu Passenger 02093 was about to cross the Godia Bada Road to the north of Fatehpur Shekhawati, Rajasthan. The oil lamps used on the crossing barriers had been serviced by the crossing keeper and would be re-positioned later for the nocturnal operations. This section of the MG route north of Sikar Junction will close in 2015 for gauge conversion (GC) work to commence.

This view of a couple of nags cropping the pasture and the Rockies is about as far as west as the trail goes out at Pella West, a spot Phil selected. The Rockies are well loaded with snow though some has already slid. We are going to have to make a 90 left onto the rest of the loop now. The sky never decided on any direction on that warmer day last Sunday. Boy, have we ever gotten rapid and bouncy (climate) change in the valley. Here we are on Sunday after the blizzard blast as Nebraska studies on burning fossils. My big mistake was taking my jacket Sunday. This was the day for a trek. The last few days brought another Colorado weather swing bringing both nasty and great days. My last walk at Golden Ponds was when I revealed a juvenile bald eagle working on his landing licks. Only one stinkin' nag today. Is that it? We have a ways to go and an afternoon with spaced benches to use up on our walk.
Boy has the weather ever bounced back and forth in the valley after warnings about the monster storm brewing off California. On the other hand, the snowplow crews retunneled through the big avalanche shed on Red Mountain Pass after torpedoing the usual slides. Now they only need to plow the spots where road is covered with 60 feet of snow. They are actually targeting sometime on April for an opening date. Others target later summer dates as we terk in shirtsleeves. Red Mountain Pass holds the record for the shortest longevity of snow plow drivers. HA! Should there be a road there at all? See my retouch of a C.W.Cross USGS shot of the area.
I usually go wandering when I see skies might develop; nuttin' today. I slapped my buns then headed to MAC Lake but Phil turned us toeward Pella Crossing West for some degree of exercise and a good walk. I got outta here a few times each month. I hope to bail more with the final sputterings of winter this year. All the Colorado newbies complain about the downturns with panic warnings. I am panicked about the extensive over-paving and ultimate warming of Logmont.

I love the rain, snow, and nature. The ocean and rivers are beautiful and inspiring! If given the chance, I never miss a snow day. I didn't miss them as a kid or a teenager, so why should I now? And by the way… the feeling of crossing the East River by ferry is out of this world!!! The best experience & cheap, too!
Just a few minutes before I heard the distinctive Stanier 'hooter', signifying its departure from Carlisle Citadel, I was observing an otter swimming upstream close to the river bank where I was standing, and I don't know who was more surprised! Just before 8.00am on Saturday 14th June 2013 Stanier 'Black 5' 45407, with its support coach, heads from Grosmont to Fort William, to take up its summer duties on the West Highland 'Jacobite' services.

Beautiful sunrise this morning as I drove across the tracks near my home on the way to work. I know I've been MIA on flickr, just been struggling with emotions after the loss of Shiloh and hard to get the creative juices going. I'll check your streams soon my friends.
Athenry to Claremorris Railway Line - MP Tuam 15 1/2.
Lisduff Level Crossing (XE303) on the N17, Mayo 23rd August 2012.
Littons Mill crossing box. One of three in a short distance along the Warrington 'low level'. The others being Monks Siding and Crosfields crossing. When the line was resignalled in summer 2012 the mechanical signalling was removed in favour of LED's and Crosfields box closed. Littons Mill was retained as the crossing gates are stil manually operated. The box is usually switched out in the evenings and Sundays as seen in this view on 26th June 2012.

Notes: inscribed on back, "Single line level-crossing to Glossop Road on site of old toll-gate and near Donohoe's grave. the early station office was later a Church of England meeting room."
View looking due east from a private level Crossing west of Linden, originally named 17 Mile Hollow.
The railway platform in the left distance, first known as Henderson's, was opened for use on 26 Sept 1874. Crossing loops were added in 1881-2 and a large sand bin and water tanks followed in 1884. The Linden yard was remodelled in the 1896 deviation, which eliminated four eight chain curves between Numantia and Linden by substituting three transitioned curves of twelve chains radius. Advantage was also taken at that time to provide full interlocking passing loops and sidings, operating from an open frame on the platform. When the line was duplicated in 1902, the island platform with brick buildings and footbridge from the cutting was built.
Under the embankment is the site of the original 17 Mile Hollow Toll Bar erected 1849, to collect tolls on the Western Road. The first toll keeper was Thomas Ellison who built the associated Toll Bar Inn in 1857. When both were demolished for railway construction in 1863, Thomas received compensation of £1,633 for the loss; he also owned The Native Lass Inn on Lapstone Hill. His son John married Hannah Lees in Springwood in 1871 and they had 10 children. His orchard and farm were situated on the present Springwood golf course and the house utilised stone salvaged from the Toll Bar Inn. In 1911 the family relocated to their property in Emu Plains. Ellison road and public school in Springwood bear his name.
In the distance, right, is Linden Lodge, built on the original grant of the land made to William Henderson, a prosperous Sydney ware-houseman, in 1865; it comprised 40 acres (16 hectares), portion 7 in the parish of Linden. Henderson built a fine home which he named Linden Lodge and was living there by 1876, when he was one of a group of residents instrumental in having a public school opened in Springwood. Following the application of one of his neighbours, Mr D Fletcher, a railway platform was conveniently built nearby, originally known as Henderson’s Platform and then as Linden, after the house.
Format: B&W photo, 135 mm x 200 mm
Date Range: around 1884 when the water tank was erected and before the realignment for the interlocking passing loops and sidings of 1896 which resulted in the platform curving away more to the south.

27012 crossing the Forth bridge with 1517 Edinburgh to Dundee on Saturday 1st October 1983.
The BRC&W loco had only 32 months service left with BR after this photo and was withdrawn in May 1986, being cut up (as were many of the class) two years later in 1988 at Vic Berry's in Leicester.
The island to the right of the bridge is the uninhabited rock of Inchgarvie. The castle on it was built in 1513 and has was used as a prison and at one point, a place for plague victims to be contained.

Adder crossing the road in an Angus glen. My first sighting of one of these snakes despite many visits to the places where they are.
On Saturday, July 4, 2026, BNSF Railway (BNSF) 7672 is leading a westbound freight through the Niles Crossovers at the California Central Model Railroad Club (CCMRC) in the historic Agnew depot in Santa Clara, CA. My BNSF 7672 is an HO Athearn Genesis model.
The real BNSF 7672 is a GE ES44DC. Reportedly: it was built in 2005, serial number 55731.
