CSX R202 begins loading its 75-car train with Greenbrier Smokeless Coal in Anjean, WV. This loadout only loads a handful of trains every year, so this train was tied down for 3 days before the mine had enough coal to load all 75 cars.
The mechanical loaders make short work of filling up 66006 at Cwmbargoed, the train will later work out as 6C94 15:45 Cwmbargoed Opencast Colliery to Margam Terminal Complex.
When I originally took this pic, in my minds eye, I had visions of there being loads of people sitting on these steps as it was the height of summer and a red hot day. There were loads of people in the vicinity but just not where I wanted them.
CP's Fording River Sub was built for one purpose, to move coal from Fording Coal's three mines to export market. The 32 Mile line, north of Sparwwod BC sees multiple unit coal trains each and every day.
On a warm August afternoon, a southbound loaded train from the Fording Mine passes a counterpart that is finishing loading at the Elkview Mine.
I loved the dark burgundy section of this tunnel. Being lucky enough to catch the light trail passing through the centre of the frame really adds to it too (and that red glow reflection on the poster!).
Moments prior I had been taking shots just before the tunnel. A couple of guys wandered past and stopped. My heart sank- they were going to engage us in conversation. I always feel so, so awkward as I really just want to take my photographs and be left alone. They were perfectly nice but there were loads of questions about what Michael and I were doing. Anxiety levels increased, embarrassment increased. Argh.
One of my favorite lakers, the steamer Wilfred Sykes, loads at CN Dock 6 as a hill job spots cars for dumping.
Union Pacific SD40-2 No. 3661 leads a 40-car Malad Local past an old sugar beet loader at Ford siding west of Bear River City, Utah on Aug. 3, 1993.
After spotting empties at and lifting loads from AIM (and left behind at CP Adams Yard), CP TH11 heads light power back towards Kinnear Yard at the end of their shift working the north end of Hamilton, Ontario.
Four of BMLP's E60s slowly inch a coal train through the loadout silo of the Peabody Kayenta mine. After the 1-2 hour loading process the train will return to Page, where the coal will eventually fuel the Navajo Generating Station which has since shut down. This picture was taken on the first of two trips I made to the line after three announcement they would be shutting down the plant and railroad by 2020.
Green-winged Teal (Eurasian) (Anas crecca)
This photo was taken in Kiyose Kanayama Green Park, Japan. The weather was perfect and the water was extremely clear. I had a great day and took loads of photos.
Unique view from a loading area in Detroit Metropolitan Airport.

Two different versions of SD70's howl up Logan Hill with loaded hoppers. In the background are two Union Pacific empties snaking north around Antelope Mine on the right.
The afternoon dock job switches loaded taconite jennies out on old Missabe ore dock now controlled by Great Lake Transportation. A cloud of taconite dust flies into the air and drifts over the Mantoulin and Michipicoten from Lower Lakes Towing load at both the conveyors and the gravity chutes loading ore from Minnesota's Mesabi Range. Positively busy times at the Duluth dock.
The other day I uploaded a long, wide load on the Leichhardt Highway between Moura and Wandoan in Queensland. Well, there were two loads and here is the second. This one was actually wider than the other, and if you look closely for the flags that distinguish the outside edges of the load, you will see that there is very little room left on the road. For this one, we were over as far as we could get and we still saw the load sweep past my nose!
CLF2, 44223, C501 and CLF1 load on the "main line" loader at The Rock ABA site. Once a few passing trains go through on the main line about 1km behind this the train will reverse back to the main line and then commence it's run south to Melbourne's Appleton Dock for unloading.

Aboard the steamer Michipicoten at the LS&I dock in Marquette, Michigan loading ore for Essar Steel at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The chute empties one "pocket" on the dock, the boat is winched along the dock to align the hatches with chutes while loading back on October 23, 2010.
Or Pumpkin Load depending on where you came from!
Back in the old days a Punkin Load was a single log load that was big enough to bring the trailer up to weight. This was back in the days of the big timber, back when old growth was still plentiful.
Definitely not something you would ever see today, everything coming out of the woods today is match sticks compared to the days of old!
Just an old photo that I cleaned up as best as I could considering the age!
