Machu Picchu 20221127
Embedded within a dramatic landscape at the meeting point between the Peruvian Andes and the Amazon Basin, the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu is among the greatest artistic, architectural and land use achievements anywhere and the most significant tangible legacy of the Inca civilization. Recognized for outstanding cultural and natural values, the mixed World Heritage property covers 32,592 hectares of mountain slopes, peaks and valleys surrounding its heart, the spectacular archaeological monument of “La Ciudadela” (the Citadel) at more than 2,400 meters above sea level. Built in the fifteenth century Machu Picchu was abandoned when the Inca Empire was conquered by the Spaniards in the sixteenth century. It was not until 1911 that the archaeological complex was made known to the outside world.

Ramsau-Hintersee
Framed by steeply towering peaks and embedded in the legendary magic forest, the idyllic Hintersee lies in the Bavarian mountaineering village of Ramsau.
Des Moines, Iowa
These letters were embedded in the entryway of a building that is now a bar. They once spelled, "Woolworth's."
These three, which are all of driftwood washed up on the beaches, are the first in a series of some of the stuff that I love to look at in detail, as I wander around the coastal habitats I visit near home. As I can't go there just now, I've been trawling my archives, and (I hope) they are all images that I haven't posted before.

Pholiota squarrosa, commonly known as the shaggy scalycap, the shaggy Pholiota, or the scaly Pholiota, is a species of mushroom in the family Strophariaceae. Common in North America and Europe, it is often an opportunistic parasite, and has a wide range of hosts among deciduous trees, although it can also infect conifers. It can also live as a saprobe, deriving nutrients from decomposing wood. The mushroom is typically found growing in clusters at the base of trees and stumps. Both the cap and the stem are covered in small, pointed scales that are pointed downward and backward. The crowded gills are yellowish, then later rust-brown. The mushroom has an odor that, depending on the author, has been described as resembling garlic, lemon, radish, onion, or skunk. It has a strong taste, resembling radishes. Once thought to be edible, it is now considered and known to be poisonous, especially if consumed in combination with alcohol. The mushroom contains unique chemicals thought to help it infect plants by neutralizing defensive responses employed by them. The very similar P. squarrosoides differs in having a paler cap that is sticky between the scales, and smaller spores.

FR – 12 septembre 2026 – Ficksburg, Afrique du Sud
En Afrique du Sud, le réseau à voie de 61 cm (2 pieds) de Sandstone Estates, près de Ficksburg, a récemment été prolongé vers l’ouest jusqu’à un lieu nommé Sekonyela équipé d’un château d’eau et d’une boucle de retournement, à proximité d’un petit lac de 4.6 hectares.
À environ 2,3 km du château d’eau de Sekonyela, la Garratt 131+131 SAR Class NG G16 no NG88, baptisée « Joanne », remorque un train mixte en direction de Vailima.
La NG88 fut construite en 1937 par la Société Anonyme John Cockerill, à Seraing, en Belgique. Elle appartenait au premier lot de quatre Garratt NG G16, les NG85 à NG88, construites par Cockerill. Initialement considérées comme des NG G13, ces quatre locomotives portaient des plaques NG/G13 qui furent ensuite modifiées en NG/G16.
La NG88 passa presque toute sa carrière dans le Natal sur la ligne de Port Shepstone à Harding. Elle remorqua notamment le populaire train touristique Banana Express dans les années 1970-1980. Déjà basée à Port Shepstone à l’époque des South African Railways (SAR), elle passa ensuite à l’Alfred County Railway (ACR) et assura le 1er avril 1988 le premier train commercial de la nouvelle compagnie. Elle continua également à être employée sur le Banana Express.
Retirée du service vers 1992 puis garée à Paddock, la NG88 fut ensuite acquise par Sandstone Estates. Entièrement restaurée, elle retrouva le service en 2010.
L’ACR était une compagnie privée sud-africaine qui exploitait l’ancienne ligne à voie de 610 mm reliant Port Shepstone à Harding sur 122 km, dans le sud du Natal. Construite entre 1911 et 1917, cette ligne desservait une région agricole et forestière au relief très accidenté. Ses courbes serrées, ses fortes rampes jusqu’à 30 ‰ et son faible écartement convenaient particulièrement aux puissantes Garratt NG G13 et NG G16.
Les SAR fermèrent la ligne en 1986. La Port Shepstone & Alfred County Railway Company la reprit sous bail à la fin de 1987. L’infrastructure demeurait propriété de l’État, et l’ACR assurait l’exploitation et l’entretien de la ligne. Il s’agissait de l’une des premières expériences de privatisation ferroviaire en Afrique du Sud.
La compagnie exerçait deux activités distinctes : le transport commercial de marchandises, assuré d’abord par des Garratt à vapeur puis par des diesels Class 91, et l’exploitation du train touristique Banana Express.
Progressivement concurrencée par le transport routier, l’ACR perdit son contrat de transport de bois en 2001, puis fut mise en liquidation en 2004. Le Banana Express survécut brièvement sous un autre opérateur, jusqu’en 2005–2006, avant l’arrêt définitif des circulations. En 2008, une violente tempête endommagea gravement la partie côtière de la ligne.

EN – September 12, 2026 – Ficksburg, South Africa
In South Africa, the 2 ft-gauge (610 mm) Sandstone Estates Railway near Ficksburg has recently extended its line westwards to a location known as Sekonyela, where a water tower and turning loop have been provided in the vicinity of a small 11.4-acre lake.
Some 2.3 km from Sekonyela water tower, South African Railways Class NG G16 2-6-2+2-6-2 Garratt No. NG88, carrying the name ‘Joanne’, hauls a mixed train towards Vailima.
The locomotive was built in 1937 by Société Anonyme John Cockerill of Seraing, Belgium. It formed part of the first batch of four Class NG G16 Garratts, # NG85–NG88, built by Cockerill. These 4 locomotives were initially regarded as members of Class NG G13, and their NG/G13 numberplates were subsequently altered to read NG/G16.
NG88 spent almost its entire working life in Natal, chiefly on the Port Shepstone–Harding line. Among its duties was hauling the popular Banana Express tourist train during the 1970s and 1980s. Already based at Port Shepstone in SAR days, it later passed to the Alfred County Railway (ACR) and hauled the new company’s first revenue-earning train on 1 April 1988. It was also used on the Banana Express under ACR ownership.
Withdrawn from service around 1992 and stored at Paddock, NG88 was subsequently acquired by Sandstone Estates. Following a complete restoration, it returned to working order in 2010.
The ACR was a privately operated South African railway working the former 122 km, 2 ft-gauge line between Port Shepstone and Harding in southern Natal. Built between 1911 and 1917, the railway served a rugged farming and forestry region. Its sharp curves, steep gradients of up to approximately 1 in 33 (30‰), and 2 ft gauge made it particularly well suited to the powerful NG G13 and NG G16 Garratts.
South African Railways closed the line in 1986. The Port Shepstone & Alfred County Railway Company took it over under lease in late 1987. The infrastructure remained state-owned, while the ACR assumed responsibility for operating and maintaining the railway. It was one of South Africa’s earliest experiments in railway privatisation.
The company operated two distinct services: commercial freight traffic, worked first by steam Garratts and later by Class 91 diesels, and the highly popular steam-hauled Banana Express tourist train.
The ACR gradually lost its freight traffic to road haulage and finally lost its timber contract in 2001. The company went into liquidation in 2004. The Banana Express continued briefly under another operator until 2005–06, when services finally ceased. In 2008, a severe storm caused extensive damage to the coastal section of the line.

Uncoupling from its train in order to pull two empty flat car from the Marmen track at right, CN L561 is passing the Matane station name sign, still proudly showing it's Canada & Gulf Terminal Railway roots, more than 50 years after CN acquired the 36-mile long "Matane Territory".
With one last customer to serve before heading back toward Mont-Joli, their home terminal, the crew is anxious to finally get rid of rain suits and heading home for a well-deserved diner.
