Canadian Pacific local D13 heads back to Whitehall as the tie gang prepares for a busy evening at Ticonderoga siding. Fort Ticonderoga is visible in the distance over Lake Champlain.
Canadian Pacific local D13 arrives at Fort Ti siding with a short train. D13 services the International Paper Mill on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Canadian Pacific D13 local running long hood forward and with their shoving platform caboose takes the siding at Ticonderoga to wait for the northbound Amtrak requalifying train. D13 used to run with 2 locomotives one facing north and one south so they could run around their train after working the Ti mill and run normal back to Whitehall but PSR has put an end to that it seems.

RNLI relief fleet Shannon class all-weather lifeboat RNLB Bridie O’Shea RNLI 13-33 moored at Lowestoft Haven Marina.
The Shannon is the first modern all-weather lifeboat propelled by waterjets instead of propellers, making her the most agile and manoeuvrable all-weather lifeboat in the RNLI fleet.
Waterjets allow the Shannon to operate in shallow waters and be intentionally beached. And when precision really matters, such as operating alongside a stricken vessel or navigating around hazards, they come into their own. At maximum power, the Shannon lifeboat pumps 1.477 tons of water each second from her waterjets.
The Shannon is the smallest and lightest of the RNLI's 25 knot lifeboats, meaning she is capable of being launched straight off the beach via a new and improved launch and recovery system. Designed in conjunction with Supacat Ltd, the new tractor borne carriage allows a faster and safer launch and recovery time than the present Mersey system. It operates as a mobile slipway, which solves the unique challenge of transporting, launching and recovering the Shannon lifeboat over some of the most demanding beaches. After being recovered from the beach bow first, a turntable in the carriage rotates the Shannon 180º ready for her next launch.

At 3.46pm on Saturday 25th. April 2020 RNLI Exmouth's temporary all-weather lifeboat Bridie O’Shea (RNLI 13-33) was alerted by H.M. Coastguard to a report of a missing diver four miles off the coast of Seatown, Dorset. Following the alert the lifeboat was launched shortly afterwards at 4.03pm and under the command of deputy Coxswain, Roger Jackson it immediately made its way to the area. Once on the scene they were assisted in a search of the area by RNLI Lyme Regis Atlantic 85 ILB Spirit of Loch Fyne (B-857), Royal Navy ship HMS Tyne (P 281), an H.M. Coastguard helicopter from Newquay and other vessels in the area.
After a brief search the missing diver was located safe and well and taken to safety. He had been diving without a buddy and adrift for two hours in which time he floated three miles from his last reported location. He had surfaced safely but lost sight of the dive vessel after his line became detached. He did not require medical attention.
The lifeboat returned to Exmouth RNLI lifeboat station at 6.13pm and was back on station ready for service shortly afterwards.
De Zillertalbahn is een particuliere smalspoorlijn met een spoorwijdte van 760 mm, die voor regionaal vervoer, toeristische doelen (vooral ritten met stoomlocomotief) en houttransport dient.
Op vrijdag 22 juli stond er in de voormiddag een beetje rust op het programma. En dus profiteerde ik ervan om voor de eerste keer de stoomlocomotief op foto te zetten (foto volgt). Nauwelijks was de stoomtrein mijn fotopunt voorbij of ik hoorde in de verte een zware claxon. Controle in het spoorboekje leerde dat dat onmogelijk al een nieuwe regionale trein kon zijn. Dus moest er wel iets speciaals op pad zijn.
En ja hoor, een goede tien minuten later kwam daar diesellocomotief D13 (gebouwd in 2004) door de bocht met een knappe goederentrein!
De Zillertalbahn staat namelijk ook in voor de aan- en afvoer van het houtverwerkend bedrijf Binderholz in Fügen, gelegen op een goede tien kilometer van Jenbach! Het leuke is hier natuurlijk dat 'normaalspoorwagons' (1435 mm) op rolbokken gezet worden met een spoorwijdte van 760 mm!
En dit op foto krijgen... tja, daarvan kon mijn geluk dus niet op hé!!

I took over 300 shots of this incredibly secretive and elusive animal. Every one of them has something unique and slightly different that makes it interesting.
