A single horse munching on pasture on field in Jefferson Oregon at my west coast damsel’s family’s homestead.

While in Oregon a few weeks during Easter weekend, we crossed the Jacob Conser Bridge over the Santiam River on Route 99E into Jefferson. A concrete rainbow through arch bridge built back in 1933 and with my affinity for bridges I asked my west coast damsel if we could go capture despite being a wee under the weather and she replied affirmatively.

honor of Thomas Jefferson, the principal author of the United States Declaration of Independence, a central intellectual force behind the American Revolution, founder of the Democratic-Republican Party, and the nation's third president. The Jefferson Memorial is built in neoclassical style and designed by John Russell Pope, a New York City architect.
Driving along Highway 26, north of Madras, I thought this was Mount Hood -- so I pulled off on a farm road to take a shot.
Then I looked to the right and I saw Mount Hood.

Montana Rail Link's Logan Local (R-MRL8441) returns to Logan after their once-weekly run to Whitehall. They are running along the Jefferson River through the canyon, some of the best scenery we saw in Montana.

Fort Jefferson is located in Dry Tortugas National Park. This park is a cluster of seven small islands located 70 miles off the coast of Key West Florida. They were originally named "Las Tortugas (The Turtles) by Ponce de Leon for the abundance of sea turtles that once inhabited the area. The "Dry" was added later due to the lack of fresh water on the islands.
Fort Jefferson was a military installation that guarded the waters off the Florida Keys. During the Civil War, Union warships used the harbor to blockade Southern shipping. It was also used as a prison, mainly for Union deserters. Its most famous prisoner was Dr. Samuel Mudd who participated in the conspiracy to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln.

An MRL ballast train rolls east through Jefferson Canyon. This train loaded near Pipestone, the western end of operations on what was once Northern Pacific's Homestake Pass route. Today just a local to Whitehall and these ballast extras operate this way.

Thanks very much for your views, comments, favs and invites!!!!!!
Just another frome I like from this spot deep in the confines of the Jefferson River Canyon on one of the most famous stretches along the Northern Pacific Railway where many a publicity photo was taken of the legendary North Coast Limited. These days the line is no longer a through route and the trains are far less elegant, but at least these rails remain unlike the Milwaukee Road on the other side of the river whose right of way has been bereft of rails for over four decades now.
Montana Rail Link's diminutive 844 Logan local has one covered hopper in tow here at about MP 27.5 on the modern day MRL's 5th Sub. Leading are a pair of classic EMD GP35s, MRL 403 and 405 blt. Dec 1964 as DRGW 3039 and Jan. 1964 as DTI 353 respectively.
Countless articles have been written about the MRL over the past 35 years of its existence and if you care to learn more download this great set courtesy of Trains Magazine:

MRL 844 rolls west along the Jefferson River with a single car for Whitehall. The old Milwaukee is visible on the opposite bank.
No new computer yet! Nearly all my photos are on the old one which is busy at the shop being migrated to the new. So now it's about seeing what I have stored on this laptop. This photo was from the day Anita and I got lost in the Forest and fog rolled in and it was so thick we couldn't see but a few feet ahead and there was a sheer drop off at the edge of the road. Yes, this ride was and still is our #1 scariest drive we ever went on! This was earlier in the day and it was just a dark, rainy sort of day and sundown and darkness were not far away!
It took me a bit, but I found the photo and story that I shared first. It was about 2 years ago. If you haven't read the original story... it's rather funny. :) See below:
