It has been agreed by those at hand that Elmer's pumpkin could indeed be loaded. In expediency an old boxcar was sourced and loading commenced. An engine hoist was sourced from a nearby mechanic and with enough rope, straps and chain the job could be completed. Lifting bit by bit and supporting with pallets and hay bales the cargo was secured. By morning the great pumpkin was in downtown Milwaukee. And, yes it won the contest. Easily.
Coal loads head east under the PRR cantilevers at CP Leech on the NS Conemaugh Line on a late September morning. The lead unit was built as Conrail 5623. The signals have since been replaced and the 6746 has been retired.
With a load of steaming taconite pellets fresh from the Fairlane Taconite plant in tow, a pair of SD40T-3's and a C40-8 hustle U717 across the Cloquet River in Burnett, Minnesota and head towards Proctor. The train will have to take the siding at Coons in order to meet a northbound intermodal train.

66 620 draws its train through the loading bunker at Tunstead Quarry with empties from Tunstead Bottom End Yard, which will load with limestone rocks to form 6H22 the 11.08 to Hindlow Quarry. Beside 66620 is the Industrial Shunter from the previous image. The train is running late at this point due to loaded difficulties at the beginning, resulting on one cab being covered in limestone sludge, images of the cab will follow.
This was a great location with a view over the vast Tunstead Quarry.

Union Pacific's Cache Valley Local sets out a load of cotton seed in Preston, Idaho on June 16, 2018.
Another load of gold bearing ore being transported from A1 mine between Gaffneys Creek and Woods Point, to their processing plant at Maldon, Victoria. 15 loads each day are shipped to Maldon. The processing plant at A1 was closed down due to environmental concerns, The company A1 Consolidated Gold then purchased the mine and plant at Maldon so they were able to stay in production, 750k round trip. This image was taken on the Mansfield-Woods Point Road at Kevington, Victoria, Australia.
Yesterday I mentioned to a few people that we would take a closer look across the Tamar towards the industrial side of Bell Bay. So I put on the Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2 and started shooting. All my shots today were taken with this impressive lens.
Here we see the cargo ship Globulus being loaded with woodchips to be shipped to Japan. Enlarge the shot and you'll see that huge mountain of woodchips is being pushed around by bulldozers! Quite an operation.
Now I must add that this woodchip comes from sustainable forests. Wood is, after, all a recyclable product and less damaging to the environment than plastics or manufactured materials. All logging in Tasmania is now sustainable despite what some political agitators would have us believe. More than half of the Tasmanian landscape is protected forests.
USSC #312, a GP11, passes one of the numerous sugar cane load out along USSC's system. This loaded has dried out for this year, but during the next harvest it will be busy once again. Something also worthy of note in this scene are the rails under the loader, hidden in the grass, it is stamped '1903 CARNEGIE.' Hard to believe these rails still serve trains during every harvest.
66305 & 66303 approach Workington's Derwent Junction with 6C22, the 07.27 Kingmoor - Sellafield, made up of the previous day's Torness & Georgemas Jn. consists.

Based on 4950 The Loader-Dozer, released in 1999.
Not my finest work, but I wanted to share this micro Rock Monster. The main body is a no pattern mini Piraka head and the back is a pair of those guns that shoot studs. I don't have many parts in this color so I had to improvise.
Driver 'Herbie' Loader of Peckett 0-4-0 saddle tank (Works No.1788 built in 1929), poses at the Haydon Hill road level crossing just outside NCB Kilmersdon Colliery on a wet autumnal day in 1969. The 'R3' Class loco, one of only two built, was supplied new to the Writhlington Collieries Co. Ltd. in 1929.

Portrait of a semi-nomadic woman with her daily load of wood (Chad).
Arab community has been in Chadian territory for hundreds of years, mostly in south central Chad.
Despite their widespread diffusion, these Arabs represent a single ethnic group composed of a multitude of tribes.
The Arabs of Chad are semisedentary (or seminomadic) peoples who herd their camels, horses, cattle, goats, and sheep on the plains in the Chad lake area.
In the region around N'Djamena some Arabs have adopted a more settled existence.
In the rainy season, Arab groups spread out through the region; in the dry season, they live a more settled existence, usually on the dormant agricultural lands of their sedentary neighbors.
