In railway workshops, I can never resist photographing welding or metal cutting operations with all their attendant shooting sparklers. The Banovici workshops in Bosnia were no exception.

Having done a bit of cutting back of the over running rose bush at the back of the greenhouse I realised I had been a bit gung-ho . Saw the bloom and buds on a portion of bush chopped back and figured I ought to save these so an old bonsai pot , some dirt and some Cornish grit and it is allowed indoors now !
The Ulan LIne in the Upper Hunter Valley provides some fantastic scenery that the line follows along from Ulan to the folk at Muswellbrook.

Macro Mondays : cutting edge. Sometimes separation is painful. For many of us there are things in our lives we must separate ourselves from.

A timely passing at lunch 60532 Blue Peter runs through Sheffield on 1Z31 Northampton to York via Crewe and the Hope Valley. Initially booked down platform 1, the vantage point above the tunnel portals was better than the flap of running from one to five to deal with the later change.
Passing through the classic location of Horbury Cutting, 60087 ‘CLIC Sargent’ heads 6E32 08:48 Colas Ribble Rail - Lindsey OR discharged bitumen tanks on 27th April 15.

After NS dispatch lined the IC connection for the incoming CN Local, LSF50 tones the Springfield Subdivision dispatcher to tell them they are ready to proceed south to Carlinville from Ridgely. After taking away the lineup from the CN Local, the UP "South Local" also proceeds to cut in front of the southbound Amtrak 303 which was hot on its heels.
so he cut up a pair of Skivies, A warning to not mess with The Elf on the shelf, someone turned the fan on, one of the last times the elf made his rounds, all the unders flew and that makes for not a happy elf... :)
Having navigated the Blyth and Tyne system, 6S45 reaches the end of the freight only network at Morpeth North junction.

68030 Black Douglas is seen heading west through Horbury cutting. It was returning to Liverpool from York. Crew training perhaps?

--Inspired by molly, probably one of my favorite photos ever taken by anyone ever--
Ironically, those are probably the dullest pair of scissors I own, so actually cutting everything off at the end took me probably half an hour, hahah.
Also, HOME. For three and a half weeks, so hopefully that means lots more photos soon. I'm finally getting my wisdom teeth out tomorrow though, so I might be out of commission for a bit longer while my face goes back to normal :p
Lastly, I'm doing a print giveaway that you can enter here if you want and haven't already; I believe I'm closing it Dec. 22. So...go do that :)

47072 is heading west with a freightliner service, the containers back in '74 did not carry the rainbow of liveries we see today. Under the far arch of the road bridge in Sonning Cutting we see a row of fire buckets, redundant now but there for fire fighting on the cutting in steam days.
47072 was a Crewe built machine it entered traffic new to Landore as D1656 01/02/1965. It was later renumbered in April 1984 to 47609, it carried the name "Firefly"from 31/08/1985. A further renumber took place in July 1989 when it became 47834 and yet again it was renumbered to 47798 in May 1995 it carries the name "Prince William" It was withdrawn 01/02/2004 and is preserved.
