The impala is a graceful antelope. A slender, agile creature, it can clear formidable obstacles and run at speeds faster than 60km/h. They are fleet runners who can leap up to 10m in length and 3m in height. They use their tremendous speed and agility to escape from predators, and sometimes seemingly just for the fun of it.

This is how I would like to remember the Super Fleet.
The Parish Church of Saint Mary Magdalene
The fenland parish of Fleet sits in the south Lincolnshire fens just off the busy A17 trunk road and about 8 miles east of the market town of Spalding. At nearly 12 miles long but only 2 miles at it's widest, the settlement filtered northwards as land was reclaimed from this former tidal inlet. Once surpassing Spalding in population and wealth, Fleet was the focus of Templar activities in medieval times with a yearly fair and vigorous market for centuries.
The Grade I listed Anglican church, dating from the late 12th century, is dedicated to St Mary Magdalene. The 120 feet church tower with spire is like many medieval fenland churches and is detached from the nave by 15 feet. The exterior is mainly Decorated in style, with Early English arcades and a Perpendicular west window. According to Cox (1916), the church was restored in 1860, when the chancel was rebuilt, although the canopied sedilia was retained.
On this icy gray winter morning the Alaska Railroad dispatched a "snow fleet" work extra consisting of GP40-2s 3008 and 3006 pushing Harsco/Jordan Spreader 9 south to Portage to begin opening up the railroad to Seward. The southern end of the ARR's mainline had been out of service since the last coal train ran but was being prepped for some lumber trains from Seward later in the month. There is no snow to move here as they wind along Turnagain Arm near MP 82.5 just north of Rainbow Siding but in 25 or so miles they will be deep into it cleaning the pass through the Kenai Mountains over Grandview Summit.
The skies would clear a little later and I'd capture one of my all time favorite Alaska Railroad shots. If you missed it you can see it here: flic.kr/p/2i5vxs9

This photograph taken inside the Wisconsin Central’s diesel shop at North Fond du Lac shows two recent arrivals getting a mechanical check-over before being added to their then rapidly expanding fleet of SD45s.
The WC had already purchased 21 of these big EMDs from the Santa Fe in 1993, but due to increasing traffic levels they found it necessary to add more power in late 1994 into early 1995.
The ATSF 5327 would become the WC 6599 and the ATSF 5400 the WC 6629. – The additional road units that came to the WC from the ATSF this time around included 33 SD45s, 6 F45s and the one FP45. - September 6th, 1994 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
The Manorway Fleet runs from nowhere in particular to somewhere else. It’s fortunes are inextricably linked to the nearby River Thames and prevailing weather, but it was certainly glorious this morning.
Somewhere in this scene should be a small black dog, but don’t strain your eyes too much looking for him….

The three stars at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia: the 1902 cast-iron tug, Jupiter; the USS Olympia, hero of the Spanish-American War, and the barque Moshulu, a floating restaurant, all moored near where William Penn landed in his "greene country towne." The tug gets to roam around for periodic parades and rides; the others are permanently fixed in place.

The first SD45 that began MRL's fleet of these Loco types.
351 came to the railroad in a group of eight former Burlington Northern 45's from Helm Leasing in 1989. The only one rebuilt in and designated as an SD45M in 1991.
The ACe's sent the majority of their kind to the deadline after 2005.

My 1983 Ford Sierra 1.6 L
The 'biege thing' we call it. The project Sierra has sat for a month if not more being unused. Most set backs have been due to a limited parts supply. Despite sitting, the Sierra bursts into life with every key turn, it's much more eager than my low mileage example. Running lumpy when cold, once warmed up the engine is fantastic - it's definitely a car that wants to live.
There's a question mark over what to do with the beige Sierra. Now that the red Sierra wants for a couple hundred pounds thrown at it, I feel it should receive my immediate attention instead in order to preserve its condition. Whist financially doable, if push comes to shove I may sell this car - of course, most reluctantly. This car is in no way replaceable..
In an ideal world I think I'd like to push this into a garage and return to it in a year when I'm not juggling Uni, my new job, what to do with the Getz and putting money into the red Sierra instead.

The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene

At nearly 12 miles long but only 2 miles at it's widest, the settlement filtered northwards as land was reclaimed from this former tidal inlet.

In the last week of 2017 and my my very last week as a full time resident of Alaska I got another chance to shoot the snow fleet. This time it was again way up north in the interior as the ARRC dispatched a pair of GPs with Spreader 9 to work north winging out sidings over the course of several days. Frank Keller and I got an early start out of Anchorage and headed north on the lonely Parks Highway to meet up with the train just south of Broad Pass. We'd spend all day shooting the train working in temps below zero, although on the day after solstice this only amounts to just over 4 1/2 hrs between sunrise and sunset here at 63 degreees north latitude!
The train is seen winging north through the tundra in this going away view from the Parks Highway right at about MP 314 which they've just passed under to the west side. They are a couple miles north of Summit Siding (which would stay OOS and not be cleared this day) which is the high point on the Alaska Railroad at the Northern Continental Divide here. They are now in the watershed of the Arctic Ocean as they start down about two miles of 1% descent here. Considering that this wide valley is where the railroad crosses the Alaska Range, home of 20,310 ft Denali only 60 miles distant, it is utterly remarkable that this spot is only 2363 ft above sea level!
