In the classic style of the Rathole, northbound NS intermodal train 224 makes short work of the grade leading into the community of Pine Knot, KY, with the train behind the lead engines slowly trailing off over the horizon on the morning of May 30, 2020.
WEEK 33 – Toys “R” Us Outlet, Southaven
Moving further into the salesfloor now, here's a look at the middle portion of the store. For the most part, this store can be divided into three parts: the front, the middle, and the back. “DUH!!,” I'm sure you're all screaming at your computer screens right about now XD But my point in saying that is so that I can distinguish each portion from the others – for instance, the front of the store had mainly short quad displays holding special or seasonal merchandise; the middle of the store here featured a blend of half-height and full-height shelves, as the store transitioned into a more permanent layout; and the back of the store was exclusively full-height shelves. This gradation made for nice sightlines.

At the Chase & District Museum & Archives The origins of J.D. Adams & Company are rooted in 1885 when Joseph D. Adams designed a road grader. Although he had no degree or training in engineering his machine was a useful invention in the process of road creation and maintenance. By the 1890s he established his own production company to make graders and steel highway bridges, as well as other items. However, it was not until 1929 that the brothers, William and Roy Adams took over the business and formed J.D. Adams & Co., a corporation. Until 1940 the brothers ran it together, however in that year William Ray Adams died.
After 1940, Roy E. Adams continued to control the bulk of the business with the help of the board. On January 1, 1955, J.D. Adams & Company became a division of the LeTourneau-Westinghouse Company, at that time, J.D. Adams & Company stopped producing products and turned into an investment firm. Roy E. Adams continued the company’s leadership until his death in September of 1956, at which time family members of the original parent company ceased to be present in its management.
In 1958, the investment firm that J.D. Adams & Co. had become, merged with State Street Investment Corporation. It became a division of that corporation. As for the manufacturing that J.D. Adams & Co. originally took part in, it became part of another roadway equipment company and the graders that Joseph D. Adams had originally designed and inspired were continued in production by WABCO.

Just out of Edgewood, California, a westbound train on the Siskiyou Line begins the 3.3% climb to Black Butte. Once the train reaches the apex of the grade at Black Butte, it will be all downhill to Dunsmuir on the Shasta Route mainline.
After sneaking through the Spoon River Valley KJRYs westbound road train begins its climb back up out of the valley. Unfortunately the trees hide a lot of the interesting winding the line does just south of Marietta, Illinois.

NKP 765 heads downhill through Davenport, IA past the courthouse building.
Notice the line of cars coming alongside the 765, they were all chasing it down the street. It seemed during Train Festival wherever 765 went, a large crowd of people were following its path.
Using the old 70-200 VRI f2.8, which is the first professional grade lens I purchased, many years ago. I replaced it with the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8E FL ED VR lens, which is much better in almost every way. But I used the old version for tens of thousands of images, on a range of bodies, and was quite happy with it until trying newer lenses like Sigma ARTs. The romance with the old lens died at that point. But, like an old dependable horse, I won't sell it, just put it out to pasture in my lens cabinet next to its' Holy Trinity mates.
Today is their first day of first grade. They were both very excited. I am so happy and grateful that they enjoy school, but still I'm feeling the tiniest bit sorry for myself. The house is awfully quiet, too quiet. I miss my babies. Do these first days get any easier?

One of the ugliest vehicle's ever. I didn't see the point nor purpose of this vehicle, till I saw it working! Smart stuff, multifunctional and never designed to look good, just to be functional, and thats what I like! Hope you like my moc to.
