56053 ‘Sir Morgannwg Ganol/ County of Mid Glamorgan’ heads past the 1898-built Barry Docks Offices with an empty coal train from Barry to Tower colliery.
Even though most Welsh coal mines had closed by 1994, residual coal traffic, particularly serving the power station at Aberthaw generated plenty of rail traffic. On this day (unusually busy) Sunday, Aberthaw received 7 trains: 2 from Tower, 4 from Cwmbargoed and 1 from Jersey Marine.
The impressive building, in the baroque revival style, was built to regulate the vast coal traffic that flowed out of Barry in the early 20th century. Prior to the first world war Barry was the busiest coal port in the world. Over 11 million tonnes of coal per year were being shipped through Barry with more than 18,000 employees working the docks.
The building was in good repair in 1994: 10 years earlier a fire had seriously damaged the structure, and the port owner had recently completed an extensive refurbishment. In 2021, the building houses part of the Vale of Glamorgan Council.

Japanese companies hire new graduates en masse on April 1. In this photo, they are being taken to a training camp, having been detained the day before to prepare for the induction ceremony. Their long employee life has already begun.
An Eastbound UP tank train passes by the Oak Park green line Subway station, in Oak Park outside Chicago. Leading is UP’s Employee Assistance Program unit, which caught me off guard completely until I saw the stickers on the side.

This Gatorland employee was giving some loving to the macaws. She let me pet this bird and the bird just snuggle right up to her when I scratched its neck.
The people who work here are so friendly.

Another sample shot from the PZ16-50 kit lens. Light was extremely blah here, so I went with the flow and desaturated further by just a wee bit. Two clicks to full view.
I was thrilled to find these boulders in their new location. During late summer I had spoken with a couple of town employees that were doing some bobcat work around the monument boulder area. I mentioned to them how the Hill was the central focal point of the entire park and how the boulders that were stored on the hill looked poor with the bright orange snow fence surrounding them. The fence was placed there so that tobogganers would not crash into the boulders.
Well it took a while, but there is no more bright orange snow fence ruining shots of the hill. I like to think that I had something to do with the relocation. And their new location close to the edge of the pond is great with the hill in the background. No doubt I will be shooting these more in the future, in fact I should have a post coming up within a week.
Metro-North’s P32AC-DM 214 sporting its 40th Anniversary Employee heritage wrap leads train 1902 toward Waterbury on Thursday, October 31, 2024. The train passes under the Maple St. overpass and enters the former Farrels Foundry in Ansonia. 214 pays tribute to the Metro-North workforce with a mosaic-style wrap created by individual employee photos.
I revisited the closed bridges that must have connected Mahwah, NJ with the ford plant across the Ramapo River.
On an amazing 28 August 1989 Conrail ran an employee picnic train up from New Jersey to the Tioga-Hammond Lake Reservoir near Wellsboro PA on the former NYC "Grand Canyon" line using the OCS train with two E-units on one end and a GP40-2 on the other end for reverse moves. The special is seen between Tioga and Middlebury with the 3281 leading a northbound shuttle run.
CSX empty oil train K603 is about to go under East 71st Street in Cuyahoga Heights with Union Pacific's Chicago & North Western heritage locomotive on the point. The 1995 really could use a bath.

It's Rodeo time in Tucson and as we have done in years before we're parking cars in our lodge parking lot. The money we raise goes out to community projects we have like providing school supplies to South Tucson's community K-12 charter school.
Next to our lodge is an empty dirt lot. In years past we've contacted the owner of the lot and asked him about using it to park cars and we would split the money taken in with him, and he's always refused. From what I understand he's one one of those guys that goes outside and yells at the clouds for passing over his lot.
This year it seems like he decided that a little cash revenue wouldn't be a bad thing so he hired Heckle and Jekyll to park some cars for him. I say "seems" because we're not sure if these guys are working for him or if they're entrepreneurs who saw an empty lot and decided to make some quick cash.
The lodge has parked cars for many years and we're well prepared. We've got signage, flaggers, chalked out parking spaces, radios, the whole works. People know that we man the lot for the entire rodeo and keep an eye on all the cars. The same can't be said for Heckle and Jekyll.
These muppets were walking out in the street, stopping cars and telling them they should park in "their" lot. If you look at my previous shot:

you'll see Engine Co. 22, the partner of Mr Pajamas. He was using that bunch of Caution tape as a flag, trying to get some attention. Needless to say it really didn't work.
They did get a couple of people to park, overflow from us since our lot was filled to the brim. Somebody (not us) call the local PD to complain about being harrassed so the PD had a nice chat with the muppets, let them know that if they didn't clear out they were going to get a free night's lodging at the GreyBar Hotel. They disappeared shortly after, never to be seen again.
We still don't know if they were employees or entrepreneurs.

Metro-North Railroad P32AC-DM no. 214 is seen leading the railroad's employee holiday train through Brewster Station, bound for Southeast Yard. The locomotive is the newest in the railroad's 40th Anniversary fleet, and is decorated with numerous employee photos as a mosaic of locations along the three east-of-Hudson lines.

Built in the 1920s and 1930s, these Pueblo Revival-style stone houses were designed under the purview of superintendent Jesse L. Nusbaum to house park employees at Mesa Verde National Park. The buildings are clad in rough-hewn stone with casement windows, porches with stone columns, vigas, and parapets. The structures today continue to house park employees, with additional housing, built since the 1930s, being predominantly located at other areas within the park.
I edited out the sales total for the store for privacy reasons. I will say that this store needs to zone a bit better.
