Elvaston Castle is a stately home in Elvaston, Derbyshire, England. The Gothic Revival castle and surrounding parkland is run and owned by Derbyshire County Council as a country park known as Elvaston Castle Country Park. The country park has 200 acres (0.81 km2) of woodlands, parkland and formal gardens.
The centrepiece of the estate is the Grade II* Listed Elvaston Castle. The castle has been neglected and is in need of restoration. Due to its condition, the building is not open to the public, and since 2008 has been listed on the Buildings at Risk Register.

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.

Bramham Biggin is situated on Bramham Park and is Grade II* Listed The building dates in part from the 17th century and is constructed of local magnesian limestone with a stone slate roof, on the site of a medieval Nostell Priory monks' cell.
It was a college from 1842 to 1907 but closed because of a typhoid epidemic, the headmaster is buried in Bramham churchyard. Afterwards it became a private residence again.
Bramham Biggin is now vacant and has been for some time, so the three-storey house in the Bramham Park Estate is in a state of disrepair and English Heritage have now identified it as at risk.
More information and the history of the name Biggin can be seen at www.leodis.net/ViewImage/ByIndicator/2004118_63416690
VTR 307 leads train GMRC 263 up the steep grade out of Rutland and over the Green Mountains to Bellows Falls
The beautiful market town of Chipping Campden in the Cotwolds originally became prosperous through the wool trade. Sir Baptist Hicks - a cloth merchant who was a major benefactor of the town - had this row of almshouses built in 1612 at a personal cost of £1300, which was a vast sum for the time. He also gave £140 to maintain six poor men and six poor women in perpetuity. The Grade I-listed almshouses still fulfill their original purpose.
Hicks lavished money on the church, giving a new roof, the churchyard wall and a bell, while in the High Street he had the Market Hall built.
There is an interesting article about Baptist Hicks at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baptist_Hicks,_1st_Viscount_Campden.

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.

After rejoining NJ Transit's Main Line, NS H-55 runs grain empties from Bay State through NJT's Paterson Station, which was grade separated from street level by the Erie Railroad in the 1920s.

The Ribblehead Viaduct or Batty Moss Viaduct carries the Settle–Carlisle railway across Batty Moss in the Ribble Valley at Ribblehead, in North Yorkshire, England. The viaduct, built by the Midland Railway, is 28 miles (45 km) north-west of Skipton and 26 miles (42 km) south-east of Kendal. It is a Grade II* listed structure. Ribblehead Viaduct is the longest and the third tallest structure on the Settle–Carlisle line.
The viaduct was designed by John Sydney Crossley, chief engineer of the Midland Railway, who was responsible for the design and construction of all major structures along the line. The viaduct was necessitated by the challenging terrain of the route. Construction began in late 1869. It necessitated a large workforce, up to 2,300 men, most of whom lived in shanty towns set up near its base. Over 100 men lost their lives during its construction. The Settle to Carlisle line was the last main railway in Britain to be constructed primarily with manual labour.
By the end of 1874, the last stone of the structure had been laid; on 1 May 1876, the Settle–Carlisle line was opened for passenger services. During the 1980s, British Rail proposed closing the line. In 1989, after lobbying by the public against closure, it was announced that the line would be retained. Since the 1980s, the viaduct has had multiple repairs and restorations and the lines relaid as a single track. The land underneath and around the viaduct is a scheduled ancient monument; the remains of the construction camp and navvy settlements (Batty Wife Hole, Sebastopol, and Belgravia) are located there.

EP07-2004 with interregional passenger train 76901 "Kamieńczyk" from Poznań Główny to Szklarska Poręba Górna approaches Szklarska Poręba Dolna. From this perspective you may guess that the Izera Railway from Jelenia Góra is definitely a mountainous route. January 30, 2019.

EP07-2004 z pociągiem InterRegio 76901 "Kamieńczyk" z Poznania Głównego do Szklarskiej Poręby Górnej, wjeżdża do Szklarskiej Poręby Dolnej (po drodze zaliczy jeszcze przystanek o końcówce nazwy "Średnia"). Z tej perspektywy widać, że Kolej Izerska to nie tory na płaszczyźnie :)

This is a scene that, eventually, is going to be changing quite significantly, the evening Rocky Mountaineer crosses 72nd Avenue in Arvada. In November 2018, voters in the City of Arvada approved a measure to widen 72nd Avenue and create a grade separate with the tracks here. The project was originally slated to be completed in 2024. However, significant delays have been incurred, and now the project is expected to be completed in 2028. Apparently, the delays are largely due to design conversations with Union Pacific.

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.
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.
The managers parking spot needed some attention. You saw the finished picture earlier and thought I just backed in and set up camp didn't you? Bringing in gravel and using the tractor the spot was graded and leveled. One side was off almost 2 feet.
So how hard could it be to run a campground? It fell in our laps so we decided to give it a try! I will put up a series of photos of our campground life.
This is where I spent 3 months (July - early October) as a Campground manager. Seneca Shadows Campground in Seneca Rocks, West Virginia. It is in the Seneca Rocks - Spruce Knob Recreation area that is part of the Monongahela National Forest
