Just another of many great takes on this scene as Alco S6 151 and our little train rolls east down Brown St. past the open trunk of a sedan and a cart full of groceries.
As cool as the scene is on the lower end of Brown Street past Kuppy's Diner, the bank and the post office I feel I was more enchanted with the upper end closer to interchange. I think it was because of the two small blocks of alley running and then skirting the parking lot of Karn's Grocery. While arguably less photogenic it was much more "alive" with customers coming in and out of the lot and store and startled traffic dodging the train all while customers went about their morning chore of loading groceries into their vehicles. The scene was just so much more dynamic and lively to me, changing by the moment. And the genuine curiosity and interest (or in some cases disinterest or disdain) of the general public as to what was happening and what we were doing was fun to just observe.

Hello, my Flickr friends.
It has been a while since I posted any photos. I have been on a nice long holiday over the December and beginning of January and have been far away from any computers. I am back at work now for a few weeks and combined with our Electricity “Loadshedding” have not yet had the chance to edit and post some photos.
Anyway, I will try to post some of my holiday photos over the next few weeks. Starting with this “bird series”. Hope you enjoy it.
Load shedding is a real pain. Some days we only have 3 and half hours of electricity at day and then some at night. Sometimes the breaker in the substation blows up because of this switching and then you are without power for a few days waiting on repairs. While also increasing the price of electricity year on year by between 30% and 18%! So, we basically pay more for less electricity.
