Imported steel being loaded at Portbury, before being taken to Margam by 66783. The site looks a bit exposed, fine on a day like this but when it's wet and cold with a bit of sea spray it must be bracing. I wouldn't want to buy one of the vans stored even further out on the dock extremity.
Here's my first photo from a week-long trip I took to southeast Oregon. These are the Pillars of Rome, and you can read just a bit more about them at my blog.

a station wagon is a dangerous tool for one prone to collecting... so glad I had it....as I never would have known you...sticks and stones and animal bones...

Loading gill net for fishing. On the other end is a truck with a big winch, providing tension, and feeding the winch on the front of the gill net boat.
Loading point at the colliery at Sanbao, Liaoning Province, China, looked to be closed but the presence of loaded wagons told another story. The mines in this area were extensively developed by the Japanese during their occupation in the 1930s and early 1940s. All now demolished with a new road running along the line of the railway.
Looking mighty fine, the 1942-built Alpena is upbound for her namesake city and another load of cement.
Thirty minutes behind A439 we see CN train U716, an empty ore train headed to UTAC's Fairlane plant to load pellets and turn back to Proctor. The all EMD consist consisting of CN SD40-2W 5349 and repainted DMIR 'tunnel motors' 404 and 405 is approaching the Munger Shaw Rd. crossing at MP 14 on CN's North Division Missabe Sub mainline. Modern day CN's designation for this route pays homage to the historic former Duluth, Missabe and Northern Railroad which was incorporated in 1891, ran its first train in 1892 and built into Duluth proper in 1893. In 1938 the road was merged into the Duluth and Iron Range both long owned by US Steel to officially create the legendary Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway.
Passing overhead is MP 18.9 on CN's Rainy Sub, the former Duluth, Winnipeg and Pacific Railway mainline. Today the CN uses the two lines as a directional mainline for all their 'core' traffic which is how they refer to their non iron ore related thru trains to and from Canada. All southbound trains (manifest, grain, oil, intermodal etc.) take the Rainy while all northbound counterpartsuse the Missabe for a distance of about 60 miles between Nopeming Jct. on the south and Shelton Jct. on the north. But with both north and southbound ore and limestone trains using this lower line it sees far more traffic than it's counterpart overhead.

At a tiny speck on the map known as Brimson, a loaded train from Arcelor Mittal's Minorca Mine creeps towards the siding where it will meet an empty train heading for US Steel's Minntac Mine. Leading the way is the Illinois Central SD40-2 6251, the last black unit on the CN roster still sporting a white frame stripe.
Another layout using my CKC kit. I added a rub-on to my photo and paired it with some old Girls Paperie embellishments - I thought the colors and patterns fit well with my photo. I added buttons too, giving my layout a country, homespun look.
Off-prompt for LOAD but I really felt inspired to scrap with this photo today.
