I took this shot circa 1974 with the Pentax K1000 film camera. This photo was scanned from a print. These third graders are hard at work creating three dimensional clay maps of continents and ocean floors as part of a curriculum I helped create and develop.

I had finished a photoshoot with someone for shots of their horses with the grandkids and stayed in the area for an extra hour and a half for a storm to cross so I could photo this grader that was sitting in their field. Nothing spectacular, I just loved the yellow against the dark sky.

A view from the cab as SP's I-SF-24 train navigates the loops at Goldtree, just north of San Luis Obispo, California.
Truckers call this stretch of mountain just East of Pendleton Oregon "Cabbage" but don't ask me why. One story was a truck loaded with cabbage crashed coming down, but lots of trucks have crashed coming down so why cabbage would get the name, who knows, but ask any trucker that's been driving a few years and they'll know about Cabbage hill. The the truck in this shot is headed East, I was standing just below the West bound lanes. I had parked at the scenic view point and hiked back to the highway and crossed over to get an open view of the mountains and highway below. (I'll include a link to my truck and the scenic view point)
Been back and forth between Phoenix and Los Angeles the past few days, at our Jurupa Valley terminal tonight and have tomorrow off, sort of, picking up Monday morning at 0300, so Mondays gonna kinda sucks, but getting layover pay which is double on the weekends. $200 for a day off, not bad.
Internet here is better at night, so gonna do as much tonight on Flickr as possible, and tomorrow even with slower internet should be able to do more viewing.
Hope you're all having a great weekend taking beautiful pictures.

LTV Mining F units in ABBBA formation are sounding awesome as they climb the grade out of the dock at Taconite Harbor. September 1995.
New England Central train 611 has made light work of the grade at Belchertown, MA with only 13 cars in tow as they pass MP 75 on the Palmer Sub.
Rio Grande 3100 and a pair sister GP40-2s shove a couple of tank cars up the Chem Spur to be delivered to Mesa Oil. An oil reclamation company as I recall. In any even the spur was very steep. 9.13.01

A scene from my S gauge model railroad. Shot with the Olympus E-M1. The Texas & Pacific diesel is an original from American Flyer.
We caught up with the 29G we saw at Salem earlier for this seen in the middle of Christiansburg Grade. Still gloomy, but the fog on the hills added some ambience.
Back to school pictures are in order today. The remaining summer fun will now have to be experienced in the evenings and weekends. I was brave saying goodbye to my 3rd grader this morning, we met her teacher last night and I am expecting a great year! I'm looking forward to volunteering and getting involved.
I visited the Goldfield Ghost Town in Apache Junction. This is a Goldfield Gunfighter waiting for the gunfight.
The Goldfield Gunfighters are a dedicated group of volunteer men & women who take pride in bringing the spirit and the history of the Old West to life for the many generations of young and old that visit Goldfield Ghost Town
Come and visit Goldfield Ghost Town today! Walk down Main Street, explore the many shops and historic buildings. Tour the historic Mammoth Gold Mine and visit the Goldfield Museum. Pan for gold then take a ride on Arizona’s only narrow gauge train. You’ll also get to witness an old west gun fight performed by the famous Goldfield Gunfighters! Spend a fun filled day, rich in wild west history!
Back in the 1890′s Goldfield boasted 3 saloons, a boarding house, general store, blacksmith shop, brewery, meat market and a school house. Just when it looked like the town would outgrow Mesa, the vein faulted, the grade of ore dropped and the town died a slow painful death.
After several unsuccessful attempts to reopen the mines, the town did come to life again from 1910 on and off until 1926. After more than 115 years, travelers from all over the world still visit this gold mining town located on the historic Apache Trail and enjoy the excitement and grandeur of Arizona’s wild west!
i've always loved this school picture, because I actually had a broken arm -- I wanted my picture taken with the sling around my neck, but the photographer insisted not!
I have stuck in many people's memory from that year in school, because I actually broke BOTH arms, sequentially (not at the same time) -- first one I fell down on the school playground at a parent-teacher conference night -- skinned my knee & didn't even notice my arm, til the next morning when mom decided I was holding my arm strangely and asked if I could rotate my wrist -- I looked blankly at her and said, "no, why?" so I'd fractured my right wrist -- spent six weeks in a sling, and then the day after I got it off, I fell down rollerskating and broke my left arm.
yes, i am clumsy.
my grandmother crocheted that dress for me -- my sister had one with a sort of raspberry color instead of the green.
taken at Van Auken Elementary School, in palo alto, 1973 -- i was probably still six, soon to turn seven...
Coxo is a favorite spot for the photographers especially from the highway. Trying to get trackside is not as simple although rewarding with the angles of the grade accentuated by the pond alongside the track. The bark of the two locomotives echos across the valley of Wolf Creek.
BNSF's Thayer North subdivision between Springfield and Thayer, Missouri, has three large grades that pose a challenge for southbound coal traffic on the line.
BNSF recently bought new heavier GEs to put on their Palos coal trains which are the heaviest on the line, weighing in at just under 20,000 tons. This allows them to reduce the number of units per train from five to four.
This Palos train only had two heavies on the head end and two older SD70ACe's on the rear, causing the train to stall on the 1.5 percent Whetstone grade near Mountain Grove, Missouri, during a torrential downpour. A manned helper set was dispatched to get the train as far as it could before the crew died at Olden siding, 111 miles from where they started in Springfield.
We paid a winter visit to Cotehele in the far east of Cornwall almost a year ago and were blessed with some excellent weather.
This Grade II*-listed Chapel of St George & St Thomas A'Becket, dating from around 1490, was built by Sir Richard Edgcumbe in memory of his escape on this spot from Sir Henry Trenowth of Bodrugan in 1483. The chapel is situated overlooking the River Tamar a couple of hundred yards below Cotehele House, which was the Edgcumbe family's home. This is part of the National Trust's Cotehele Estate.
Sir Richard Edgcumbe was a Lancastrian and had his lands confiscated in 1471 by the Yorkist Edward IV, although these were returned to him the next year. Angered by Richard of Gloucester’s usurpation of the throne in 1483 and the rumours of the murder of Edward V and his brother in the Tower of London, Edgcumbe joined the rebellion led by Henry Stafford, 2nd Duke of Buckingham to dethrone the Yorkist Richard III and replace him with the Lancastrian Henry Tudor.
When the rebellion collapsed and Henry’s ships fled, Edgcumbe’s arrest was ordered and a troop of soldiers commanded by the notoriously brutal Sir Henry Trenowth of Bodrugan were sent to arrest him. He hid himself on the wooded hillside of his Tamarside home, Cotehele, and when his hiding-place was discovered, threw his pursuers off the scent by filling his cap with stones and throwing it into the river, fooling his pursuers into thinking he had drowned and thus escaping certain death.
After his escape he fled to Brittany and joined Henry Tudor with whom he returned to England in 1485. He was knighted later that year after the Battle of Bosworth, where Henry Tudor (who became King Henry VII) and the Lancastrians were victorious.

In run 8 as the headend rolls toward the final grade crossing as they climb towards to summit of Mullan Pass. This is a fine piece of railroad I am sad to see it returned to the BNSF.
Northbound A46821-10 navigates the rough territory between Hervey-Jct and Rivière-à-Pierre, locally known as "Knuckle Alley".
The Garneau based crew is headed for the meet at Hegadorn to meet with their counterpart ; A46921-10 manned with a Chambord based crew, where they'll trade trains and head back home to their respective home terminals and call it a day.
