A pair of KCS Geeps move south meeting an empty coal at Page, OK. Not sure where the local had work but I heard they do not operate terribly often. 9.05.21
Union Pacific's eastbound Minturn Local rounds the curve into Gypsum, Colorado, along the Tennessee Pass Route on January 4, 2021.

This is part of the local Green Belt just down the road from my house. A lonely cat tail that's seen better days.
This pair of red-tail hawks are our local couple, from what I saw of their behavior recently we may have a few more this summer ;)

BNSF GP50 number 3141 followed by 2825 leads the Brainerd local back to Superior with a short train of 6 cars. This local has been running lately on Sundays. Note the concrete ties on this section of the Lakes sub.
I'm not sure what train this is but I saw the same power doing the same thing two days in a row so I suspect it's a local transfer job of some sort. At any rate, this pair of UP Deuces is heading north out of Fort Worth and soon to go over the Trinity River. 5/18/18
Since CSX has taken over the pan am power has been hanging around. Recently Portsmouth branch Local L063 got two CSX GP40-2 for power. They just got paper before crossing the Great Bay as they head for Portsmouth with 2 cars for Tyco and 16 cars for Sea3. Photo taken Stratham, NH January 22, 2025

Luuk Heis asked if this is possible...well I liked the way it sounded but it is based on the fact that I think that globally you can go local as in locovores who try to eat local produce. And thanks to people like Barbara Kingsolver the idea is catching on more and more..We eat at restaurants that try to use local produce..less energy costs in terms of transporting the items...not produced by AgriBusiness but local family farmers...more organic,less pesticides,less antibiotics in the chickens etc.
Actually, tastes better...

After the UP took over the Rio Grande but before the San Luis & Rio Grande took over this section of track many of the locals were still handled by Rio Grande power. Such was the case in March of 01 when funky Rio Grande 3121 handled the days choses on the Antonito Local. Notice the upside 5 used as a two in the number board as well as the message appearing where the Mars light one was installed. It says "Hard work will set you free" There seems to be some truth to that. The bridge in the background crosses the Conejos River
Continuing my edition on the previous trips to MRL in Montana, the gas local is almost a requirement to go shoot on the MRL if you ever venture out here. Whichever you prefer, the day or the night gas, they both provide some spectacular shots to be taken along their journey from Missoula to Thompson Falls, Montana and back. Running along the Clark Fork River in the late afternoon, the night gas is my preference to shoot as the late evening light set some great settings for shots along with only being able to photograph them a few short months of the year. Although on this trip, this was my only shot of the gas I got this time as I was focusing more on the locals east of here on the MRL. Paradise, Montana.

Local J271 was essentially a transfer run of 50 miles from Avon to Terre Haute to setoff cars for local industries. Most days it would continue another 20 miles to work Paris, Illinois, then return to Avon.
Still on the double mainline east of Terre Haute, this 721 will make a quick setoff at Duane yard six miles distant and then return to Avon.
Change is always constant and nowadays, 721 is now J728, no longer goes to Paris, uses Gevos for power and regularly exceeds 100 cars.
Had a walk from Beamish through woodlands and a little open country back home.
(might as well take my camera)
Union Pacific’s West Local traverses the Rocky Spur above an eastbound coal train tied down in the siding at Rocky, Colorado, on January 27, 1998. Power for the local is Rio Grande GP30 No. 3003 and Southern Pacific (former Cotton Belt) GP40-2 No. 7264.
Sometimes I see a stroller, as her with a dog, but other times I go there is no one out in this small local park except myself
An endless maze of geometry and light, leading back into each other, melting into a sea of reflections.
This is the façade of a local high-rise office building. I've passed by this building countless times over the past 5 years without giving it a second though, but this time, with my camera in hand and loaded with a test roll of Adox Color Mission, the reflected colors looked beautiful. And so, for the first time, I took a photo of it.
