Kingfishers are a group of small to medium-sized, brightly colored birds in the order Coraciiformes. They have a cosmopolitan distribution, with most species found outside of the Americas. The group is treated either as a single family, the Alcedinidae, or as a suborder Alcedines containing three families, Alcedinidae (river kingfishers), Halcyonidae (tree kingfishers), and Cerylidae (water kingfishers). Roughly 90 species of kingfishers are described. All have large heads, long, sharp, pointed bills, short legs, and stubby tails. Most species have bright plumage with few differences between the sexes. Most species are tropical in distribution, and a slight majority are found only in forests. They consume a wide range of prey, as well as fish, usually caught by swooping down from a perch. While kingfishers are usually thought to live near rivers and eat fish, most species live away from water and eat small invertebrates. Like other members of their order, they nest in cavities, usually tunnels dug into the natural or artificial banks in the ground. A quarter of all kingfishers nest in disused termite nests. A few species, principally insular forms, are threatened with extinction. In Britain, the word "kingfisher" normally refers to the common kingfisher.
One year ago today, we find Raritan Central’s RC-1 job drilling cars at the Home Depot Distribution Center off Clearview Road in Edison, situated in the Raritan Center industrial park. A lot has changed with the shortline in 2025, with the railroad receiving two new GP15s to replace the old 2244/5, and the high hoods receiving new paint to match the paint on the new GP15s, making the stencil “RC” logos a thing of the past.

WEMBLEY 26/02/2023 Newcastle United vs Manchester United. Around 160 coaches turned up for the Carabao Cup Final and as usual a good selection of makes and models of varying ages came to have their photos taken by the assembled bus photting community. Highlights for this visit were a pair of McGill's Tourismos, a 1994 Jonckheere Monaco that has recently been on a couple of aid trips to Ukraine, 3x new Volvo 9700s for Sky Coaches, a mysterious Van Hool Astromega, and a suitably decorated minibus in NUFC colours!
Looks terrific in late arvo light, with the Penrite trailers.

I never understood how these liquid natural gas (LNG) distribution nodes work or who operates them. Presumably, it is the town authorities. They are always very colorful, typically in red, blue and yellow colors and black pipes.
