Hughes Engine house. Moonta, South Australia
Hughes Enginehouse played a focal role in the operations of the Moonta Mine. Its function was to dewater the underground workings on the mine’s largest orebodies. These orebodies, known as Elders and Elders West Lodes, were worked over a length of 1000 metres and to depths of more than 700 metres.
This classic Cornish enginehouse was constructed alongside Hughes Shaft by John Beaglehole between late 1863 and early 1865. It was named after Walter Watson Hughes, the founder of the Moonta Mining Co.
The building housed a 60-inch Cornish beam pumping engine installed under the direction of engineer Frederick May, and officially started by Captain Hancock on 2 September 1865. The engine and its installation cost £7000 ($1-2 million by today’s standards).
The engine operated pumps in Hughes and Taylors Shafts which allowed mining of the main orebody below natural water level. It worked continuously, except for maintenance, for more than 58 years until closure of the mine in 1923.
The machinery was scrapped and the buildings were salvaged when the Wallaroo and Moonta Mining and Smelting Co. liquidated in 1925. In 1973, the National Trust carried out conservation work on the enginehouse and chimney.

This is the only quint on the DFD roster. Engine 48's response area can be cut off from the rest of the city by a draw bridge over the Rouge River being up. As a result a quint is assigned to this company in case an aerial would be needed for a rescue. Notice that this apparatus carries "the bundle" but that it is located on the side of the apparatus under the turntable.

On Monday, May 30, 1988, we began the long trek home as VIA Rail Canada's Atlantic, train 11, departed Halifax, Nova Scotia at 12:35.
By around 17:00, we had entered New Brunswick, and paused at the station at Moncton for a 20-minute servicing and crew change stop. During the stop, I snapped a couple photos, though I have no memory of this whatsoever. My guess, since no headlight is displayed on VIA Budd car 6139, that this consist is headed eastward (away from me) on train 614 between Saint John and Halifax.
DXC 5258 and DXC 5206 head south towards Rolleston and then where?
These locos. originally GE export U26C (DX class) have been modified with low air intakes (tunnel motors) for use in dragging loaded coal trains up through the 1 in 33 Otira Tunnel, hence the "C" designation (coal). They are used on general freight, especially the last six weeks with the Midland Line (the line from Rolleston to the West Coast) being closed due to major damage to several bridges and the signalling system in a bush fire in early February.

For the crews at the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, Day 2 of the 2020 Rotary Plow Event began well before dawn as the OY and her K-36 pusher engines were hostled and the rotary outfit assembled. In this frame, the morning sunrise is still a few minutes away, and most of the 150 photographers have yet to arrive, but the train is largely ready to go. Crew members can be seen making final preparations for departure. The train would depart early this day, well before the busses carrying the photographers. That's because the crew had some serious plowing to do. On the previous day, the train only plowed as far as "Orgasm Curve" at Milepost 336.9, which is about the last place it was viewable from Highway 17 until it reached Coxo Crossing. That meant the train needed to plow about 4 miles on the 4%, through snowpack that was perhaps 2-3 feet deep. While it would have been great if the photographers could have watched it, the train was well below the elevation of Highway 17 and behind a forest of trees. there was just no practical way for the railroad to get 150 people into a position to see it. The busses would meet the train near Perry's Pond (MP 339.2) and the show would begin there.
This image was captured on March 1st of 2020 in the old Denver & Rio Grande Western railroad yard in Chama, NM (MP 344.12), which is now the home of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad.
