While negotiating a curve at Horse Creek, WY, C&S 2-10-2 902 ran into a spot of trouble. With the loco off the rails, the crew (and a few spectators) wait for some help in getting 902 back on the track. In the background are some of the dwellings that made up the town of Horse Creek.

Dearly Departed Grandpa...
For all the times you kissed my forehead when I cried,
For all the choices you helped me to decide...
For the laughter and smiles you gave me,
For all the teasing and fear you instilled in me...
Like stories of werewolves, hide-behinds and snakes,
haunted houses and vampire stakes.
For all those nights spent wonderfully awake,
from all the candy that gave me a stomach ache...
For being my partner in crime...
Me and you against the world all the time.
You truly were a hero to me,
so thank you Grandpa for leaving a wonderful memory...
I'll cherish each one like they were gold...
From now, forever and when I am old...

Dear little Primrose was helping me pick up the last of the windfalls yesterday.
It has been such a bumper harvest year for the apple tree that I am delighted to get all the help I can!
Just past sunrise, a Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad freight train blasts through the sagebrush of the San Luis Valley, on its way to 10,015-foot Cumbres Pass. My favorite part of this photo is the fireman sticking his head out the window of the mid-train helper.
Tree mushroom in Toronto
Mushrooms are actually the fruiting body of a fungus and late-warning signs that a tree is unwell. By the time there is a mushroom on the bark of the tree, the fungus has already built a network inside and is in the process of consuming the tree from within. Who is asking for help?

This beautiful building from 1913 is being threatened with demolition very soon!!! Please help save this building and view the link for more information on how to help save the Portland Gas Coke Building!!! Thank you!!!!!
Fall? Travillion? Northbound? Yep! Even though it was just the pusher, I got my shot I set out to get.
CSX Six-Seven makes the short trip up from Morley to Travillion to help C941.
Thundering up Mullan Pass, a four-unit MRL helper set shoves hard on the rear of a Laurel, MT to Spokane, WA manifest at Austin.
Even 9 months after the BNSF takeover, MRL SD70ACe's dominate the Helena helper sets, with only two BNSF SD70MACs having infiltratred one of the sets. This set is also noteworthy because it contains MRL 4407, the 'Veterans Tribute' unit, nose out, albiet hardly visible under a thick layer of soot and dirt.
Sheridan, WY hosts a population of about 20,000, and many of them find employment with BNSF at this northern Wyoming terminal. All trains change crews here, there's a small yard, and this town hosts a manned helper base. There aren't many manned helper operations left on BNSF, but heavy trains (primarily coal) receive assistance from Sheridan Helpers for the grades up Parkman Hill to the west and Ulm Hill to the east.
Here, a helper set departs West Yard Sheridan as it heads east to Dutch to assist a loaded coal train coming off the Dutch Sub. Several BN-era signal bridges still protect the control points around Sheridan Yard.

Experimental ! never used the video on my D7000, don't know much about it either, worth a try ;-)). Great old track from the Beatles
Racing up to Scotland with another supply train for Tesco Supermarkets is the 06.16 Daventry - Mossend Euroterminal (4S43), in the hands of DRS Sheds, 66431 and 66429. The train is making good headway as it passes Rugeley Trent Valley running some 20 minutes early.
A Rugeley early-morning classic I've been after for a while so I decided to set the alarm and chance the sun. Helpfully it played ball for one of the more photogenic freight trains of the day, even if it is Shed hauled.
The coal-fired Rugeley Power Station, even in its dormant state, still dominates the scene.

Rather than cause anxiety, the presence of many boxes as I pack up in preparation for our move next week has proven to be a delight for Sundae and Pearl, in particular.
From a feline point of view, one can never have too many boxes!

Hallo everyone,Happy New Year!
"What are you talking about now?"
Yes,sorry for the late greetings and replies!
It's not what you think. Bellamy is not searching for a miracle product to keep his hair from falling...
Unlike every other man on Earth, he's trying to get rid of it.
So I need some advise on which product I should use to safely remove the flock and the paint underneath it. Should I use pure acetone? Rubbing alcohol? Nail varnish remover with or without acetone?? I'm a bit lost in everything I read on the internet about the matter.
Help!
He is going to be a mini version of myself and therefore the poor fellow needs to go bald.
How can I stop myself from eating chocolate ??!!

Doug Harrop Photography • November 1972
"MEMORIES. Even though it is a cold and stormy day in November, 1972, Bealville, on Tehachapi, is still a good place to be. A quartet of AT&SF RSD-15's, two of them badly ailing, have managed to drag their train into this mountain town and have called for the aid of a helper that was in the siding at Cliff. The four EMD's are coupling into the train here and soon the eight units will once again have tonnage in motion." - Doug Harrop
We have 9 different species of hawks in Minnesota. A few of them look very similar to the eye of a layman.
It helps me when they have at least one very distinguishing feature, like this red-tailed hawk.

These are kittens I fostered in 2004 for HART. An urgent plea for help from HART follows. If you live in Northern Virginia you might be able to help. If you do not live in Northern Virginia and would like to help you can look for a local rescue group working with the animals displaced by Katrina:
========================================================================
In response to the tragic events caused by Hurricane Katrina, a team of HART volunteers will travel to the affected area this Friday to bring back displaced pets. It is our hope to provide temporary safe haven and eventually reunite these unfortunate animals with their families or, where necessary, find them new homes. To that end, HART has an immediate and urgent need for:
- foster homes for cats and dogs;
- crates to use in transporting animals; and
- medical and other pet supplies.
Each of you can make a huge difference in the lives of these pets and their families, the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Here's how . . .
- FOSTER a cat or dog for a couple of months!
We desperately need more fosters to accommodate the additional cats and dogs we will bring back from the stricken areas. Whether you foster an existing HART pet to make room for Katrina's victims, or whether you take in a displaced animal, you allow HART to make a difference! You alone determine how many animals we can help this weekend! If you can foster, please send an e-mail to hartsince1990@yahoo.com . While in foster, HART will provide funds for all medical expenses. (Special thanks to the fosters who have already come forward! You are already making a difference!)
- Donate transport crates. If you do not have a used crate you can spare, consider purchasing a new one. We need these crates by the end of the day, this Thursday, September 15, for our transport on Friday. Think about it, one life at a time, you can make a difference just by providing HART with one crate.
- Donate medical and other pet supplies. Please donate canned and dry pet food, leashes, collars, towels, comforters, and other supplies. Especially, ask your vet to donate any kind of medical supplies that might be helpful in this type situation, such as flea/tick treatment, bandages, antibiotics, etc..
Please help. We must have these items to succeed with our Friday transport!
And, if you can't foster or drop off supplies, we still really, really need your financial support! With extra funds we can secure additional boarding at local vets and help more victims of Katrina. Visit www.HART90.org to donate.
There are so many ways to help. Whatever you do, do something!
