Most Łańcuchowy (Lánchid) w Budapeszcie - został zbudowany w latach 1839-1849, według projektu angielskiego inżyniera Williama Tierney'a Clarka.
Most stanowił pierwsze stałe połączenie leżących po przeciwnych stronach Dunaju - Budy i Pesztu. Był jednocześnie pierwszym mostem kamiennym na odcinku Dunaju w granicach ówczesnych Węgier. Całkowita długość mostu wynosi 380 metrów, zaś rozpiętość środkowego przęsła 230 metrów.

The Reykjanes Lighthouse sits on Bæjarfell, a hill located just south of the Gunnuhver Thermal Area. This lighthouse was built after the first lighthouse at Reykjanes built in 1878 was damaged by an earthquakes in 1905. This new lighthouse, built in 1907-1908, stands at a lightsignal height of 69 meters above sealevel. The actual height of the lighthouse is 26 metres above the hill. Architect Frederik Kjørboe and engineer Thorvald Krabbe designed the lighthouse. which is still in operation. Reykjaneviti also has a radio beacon with a correction signal. A lighthouse keeper lived in an adjacent house but now the oldest standing lighthouse in Iceland is operated remotely.

The chain bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Hungary, designed by English engineer William Tierney Clark and built by Scottish engineer Adam Clark. It was opened in 1849. It is anchored on the Pest side of the river to Széchenyi Square (formerly Roosevelt Square), adjacent to the Gresham Palace and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and on the Buda side to Adam Clark Square, near the Zero Kilometre Stone and the lower end of the Castle Hill Funicular, leading to Buda Castle.
The bridge bears the name of István Széchenyi, a major supporter of its construction, but is most commonly known as the "Chain Bridge". At the time of its construction, it was regarded as a marvel of modern engineering.
Engineer Michael Pyle gets Norfolk Southern train #708 under way after swapping crews in Cedartown, GA with coal loads bound for Georgia Powers Plant Wansley. They're crossing one of the few active sections of the ex SAL Birmingham - Atlanta line that only sees CSX local A700. Ive always found this junction cool since the SAL signals are on the CofG line and the CofG signals are on the SAL line.
My first ride in the cab of a steam locomotive. The engineer was kinda young. Niles Canyon Railway near Sunol, California.

The title refers to the only engineer's name that I automatically recall from a classic Dr Who episode. Unfortunately Engineer Eckersley was a bad 'un, in league other bad 'uns to steal the valuable mining deposits.
Brittle stars, an alternate common name is the 'serpent stars', are a species-rich class of echinoderms with outstanding regenerative abilities. Living under rocks or in crevices with only the tips of the arms exposed, they are known to be seafloor ecosystem engineers. They reshape the seafloor sediment surface and influence the distribution of other seafloor species. They also provide nutrition to fish, sea stars and crab predators.
Their presence in a sediment sample is one indicator of a healthy benthic community. They embody nature's fragility and resilience.

As Johnny Cash once said about his younger years "You know, for some reason, it was awfully important to me that I when I waved at the engineer, he waved back at me"
Likewise, every since first visiting America, I've also done that and most times, when you can actually see into the cab, the engineer does indeed wave back. Although you can't see it in this photo, he opened the side window and gave a friendly wave. Once the train had passed I had a big smile on my face.
Sometimes my mind goes blank when it comes to titles. This title is referring to a review of the lens I was using for this photo. In this review they call this Leica Elmarit 60 mm f2.8 lens for a soulful engineer. I think it is quite fitting to this photo which I actually think have some soul to it. What do you think?
As always, thank you for your faves, comments and views!
66176 sits on the back of another engineers train awaiting to go back to the worksite through Colwall to Malvern Wells.
This was the first in and will be the last out. I found a second handily placed footcrossing for this one, and a nest of ants whilst taking the shot, (no flip out screen involved with this one!) Saturday 25.6.16

Utah Railway engineer Stu Turner commands the controls of the RUT311 local as it rumbles into North Salt Lake, Utah, on May 15, 2012. Stu was one of the kindest railroaders I've ever met, offering a friendly wave or a trackside chat. He was tragically taken from us in July 2020 due to brain cancer.

I went for a bike ride this morning and passed the site of the old Totley Tunnel Box around the same time as an engineers train having run from the Huddersfield area. First time I've seen the new livery in action.

Splitting off Main Track 1 of the CPKC Kansas City Sub and onto the Outbound at Freight Line JCT is CPKC train 252 led by one of the brand new ET44AC's painted to honor the United States of America's 250th Anniversary, the KCS No. 704. Right behind the engine is the KCS Track Geometry Inspection Boxcar.
They're arriving at CPKC's Knoche Yard from Bensenville, IL. Another 250 unit, the KCS No. 776, is the mid-train DPU, and after everything is yarded, the power will be put together and taken to the Service Track.
The five brand new ET44AC's painted for the United States Semiquincentennial are all dressed in Old Glory Red and Blue accompanied with white and the America250 logo. "In Congress July 4, 1776" is spelled out on the conductor's side and "We the People" from the United States Constitution Preamble is spelled out on the engineer's side. All five are lettered for KCS and are numbered as 1776, 704, 250, 776 and 7626. 5/17/26.

On August 31st, 2023, well known railroader Mike Del Vecchio passed away after a battle with cancer. Although I didn't know Mike too well personally, I never heard a bad word spoken about him.

Walkers on the riverside path seem oblivious to 66571 as it passes in close proximity on it's way to Tyne Yard with an engineers train. These workings are frequently a light engine move so it was nice to get a few wagons and a further class 66 hitching a lift as a little bonus following a few minutes after the Deltic movement featured in the previous picture.

Winter presents all kinds of interesting challenges as a photographer. The cold, snow, and ice all provide risks and rewards. I decided to brave those elements recently and hiked through a foot of powder to the top of a ridge near Durango, Colorado. My reward was quite special. The last light of the day kissed the top of 12,968 ft. Engineer Mountain while the soft pink light at the end of the day illuminated the snow below in Animas Valley.
