CSX T601 sits in the mist and fog of a cool gray of a winter's morning in Martin, Kentucky as the train awaits the crew to be called to take it on its journey.
This train was from one of my first (and few) trips into coal country, so to be honest I don't really know a whole lot about the who, what, and where for this one.
Forgot to load this previously. This is the set up for these pictures:

I'd love to have this much space to shoot in all of the time. 12' seamless is nice as well.
Strobist info is detailed on each of the pictures.

I know that many visitors to the Dubrave Loading Point will have whiled away many hours at this location in anticipation of some kind of action from the resident 'Kriegslok' 2-10-0, on this occasion 33-248 on 6 November 2014. Seen through the bridge above which one of the conveyors runs which feeds the loading point behind, the seventy-year old German locomotive works away from a hopper, having had its tender replenished with more lignite. It was to be another two hours before there was any train make-up activity and the subsequent transfer to the Ljubace exchange sidings with ZFBH (Bosnian Railways takin place.

Load Haul liveried 56130 runs light engine towards Frodsham Junction on a murky 16 January 1997; presumably the loco was destined for the Stanlow Sidings.
The loading area at Sandaoling wasn’t a particularly pleasant place to dwell, even if the authorities didn’t kick you out. The conveyors from the open cast pit fed the hoppers, and elsewhere in the yard there were heaps of stockpiled coal to be loaded onto trains using the bucket on a bulldozer.
The whole operation from the drunken electricity poles to the wonky tracks was laid on a wasteland of overburden, which gently steamed and smoked in many places, releasing an all-pervading acrid sulphur “bouquet”.

GB Railfreight shed 66740 'Sarah' prepares to back down onto the rake of PCA Aluminia wagons at North Blyth before departing with the 6S45 to Fort William.
The Saturday run departs at around 09:20 which allows for a more civilised wake up that the weekday services which depart at 06:25.
Saturday 23rd April 2016.
With loading complete the operator has used his remote belt pack to bridge the east end engine up to the load out so we can climb aboard and head east to the Alicia Docks to unload and return for another load of coal.

Wow, its been ages since I've uploaded anythng, I've got loads of shots I just am not particulaurly happy with them
So I went to the woods the other day along with evey, I've got proof of that aswell, it'll come later. I got loads of shots that I was happy with at the time, or at least what I thought they looked like. When I got them home I noticed loads of little distracting little details that just wrecked most of them and severe issues with colour and the sort, accompanied but a complete bllank of what to do with the good ones, so Im pondering whether to put more up....maybe tomorrow....anyways, Im rambling on as usual.

Processed in lightroom, split toning was used with a strong blue and green mixture that were desaturated. Slight sharpening to wall in GIMP while the trees and sun were unsharpened in lightroom.
The four ex- NdeM E60's are slowing as they roll around the loading loop at the Peabody mine at Kayenta. Soon the train will stop outside the load out to lower three of the pantographs before proceeding through the load out where they will play musical pantographs to raise and lower them through the building.
This was the third loaded oil can in a row on 3-14-14, making its way alongside the frozen Mississippi River at Savanna, IL, on the BNSF.

One of the utility bots loads crates onto the crew's long-loader.
I was bound and determined to capture a Bee in flight with my new EOS 7D over this last weekend. It took me awhile to get the exact shot I was looking for. But after waiting a being patient, I caught this little Bee gathering some pollen in mid flight. He then sat hoovering to transfer it on to his back legs before going in for some more on this flower.

A bit of excitment along the south coast yesterday and today ... 2 extra large loads came through.
They had to travel a distance of 41 miles from the port at Shoreham to the Ninfield electric transformer station. The original plan had been to do the journey in a day ... but they only got as far as Lewes yesterday, just about half way.
Then today we heard they expected to reach Ninfield by 1pm today ... they came through Little Common at about 2pm and got stuck, delaying them another 30 minutes or so.
This was the first of the large loads.
I think they had the whole of the Sussex police force escourting them :)))
