Summary: This is a very popular hiking spot with great views of the ocean on clear days, a seasonal waterfall, and a densely wooded canyon. The loop starts out on Temescal Ridge Trail, climbing almost 1,000 feet in the first mile. At the intersection with Temescal Canyon Trail, you can either take a half mile side trip to Skull Rock (staying on the ridge trail) or head down into the deep Temescal Canyon. At the bottom of the canyon, you will cross a bridge with a lovely waterfall. If you are careful, you can do some rock scrambling upstream to see some additional small waterfalls. After crossing the bridge, the trail drops through the canyon at a mild pace, through a pleasantly dense wooded area.
If you skipped the ridge trail, and just walked up the canyon and back, this would be a great easy 2 mile family hike.

Indian Railways WDG-3A Alco 14855 catches the late afternoon light in December 2016 as it eases its train of BCNA type vans into the north platform loop at Asalpur-Jobner station. The train was carrying Jaypee Group bagged cement and it would be held here for about twenty minutes to enable a Jaipur bound express service to pass.

Class 40 40104 was recorded at Agecroft Junction waiting for a path to continue north towards Bolton.
Members of the Freightmaster Forum have advised me that this could well have been a T53 Trip working from Ashburys. My thanks to them for the added clarification.
D304 was delivered in November 1960 and completed over 24 years of service prior to withdrawal in January 1985. It was scrapped at Crewe Works in May 1988.

The Georgetown Loop Railroad is a narrow gauge heritage railway located in Clear Creek County, Colorado in the United States. The Georgetown Loop Railroad was one of Colorado’s first visitor attractions. Completed in 1884, this spectacular stretch of narrow gauge railroad was considered an engineering marvel for its time. The thriving mining towns of Georgetown and Silver Plume lie two miles apart in steep, narrow Clear Creek west of Denver. To connect them, engineers designed a corkscrew route that traveled nearly twice that distance, slowly gaining more than 600 feet in elevation. It included horseshoe curves, grades of up to 4 percent, and four bridges across Clear Creek, including the massive Devil’s Gate High Bridge. The Colorado & Southern Railway operated the line for passengers and freight until 1938. Originally part of the larger line of Colorado Central Railroad constructed in the 1870s and 1880s, it was later dismantled, but was restored in the 1980s to operate during summer months as a tourist railroad, carrying passengers using historic narrow-gauge steam locomotives.
In 1959, the centennial year of the discovery of gold in Georgetown, the Georgetown Loop Historic Mining & Railroad Park was formed by the Colorado Historical Society. The Colorado Historical Society’s chairman negotiated a donation of mining claims and mills, and nearly 100 acres of land. Rail line construction began in 1973 with track and ties donated by the Union Pacific Railroad.
The four-mile segment opened on March 10, 1884 and is a restored segment at the upper end of the historic Colorado Central main line up Clear Creek Canyon west of Golden. It climbs approximately 640 feet between the two towns. The longer main line up the canyon was constructed in the wake of the Colorado Gold Rush and was used extensively during the silver boom that followed in the 1880s to haul the lucrative silver ore traffic down from the mines at Silver Plume. The Loop portion of the line was the crowning segment of the line at the top of the gorge and features a 95-foot high trestle. The entire line, including the Loop, was dismantled in 1939, but interest in restoration of the Loop segment as a tourist attraction in the 1970s led to the construction of a new high bridge and the refurbishment of the segment, which reopened in 1984.
The train ride includes an optional walking tour of the Lebanon Silver Mine, located at the halfway point on the railroad. Visitor walk 500 feet into a mine tunnel bored in the 1870s while guides point out the rich veins of silver and the history of the mine.
Passengers board the train at depots located in either Silver Plume or Georgetown. (Wikipedia)
A group of UP power has just circled around the loop track at West Colton. SD70ACe 8576 has now taken the lead, at least for now.
The 'S' curve at Harrison Street is always a favorite spot of mine to photograph the 'L'. In this shot, CTA #2933 brings up the rear of a Loop-bound Orange Line train.

I'd posted this piece before but, felt that it needed to be photographed while worn, to show it in its best light. So, my friend Andie, modeled for me and I love how it looks on her.
This piece was the result of experimenting with one shape of a copper link. On each half of the necklace, there are graduated copper links - each one slightly smaller (or larger - depending on the direction) than the one before. The center pendant is a prong set rutilated quartz. Each link is forged at the ends, rolled, curved and then the curve was hammered. Links are connected by 14g copper jump rings.

NGC 3576 is a giant star forming region of gas glowing strongly in Ha and is located about 9,000 light years away in Carina. Its characteristic loops are formed by stellar winds.
The image comprises a number of NGC objects - NGCs 3579, 3581, 3582, 3584 and 3586. 3576 encompasses the whole centre bright region.. There are also a number of prominent Bok Globules, dark dense stellar nurseries.

Georgetown Loop Railroad GE 47 ton number 15 at Silver Plume, Colorado on an unknown day in August 1984, Kodachrome by Edward M. DeRouin, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 15 was built by GE in October 1947 ( c/n 27538 ) for the Oahu Railway & Land Co. (Hawaii). It appears that it has moved on to the Colorado Railroad Museum since this photo date.
This delightful loop near Santiam Pass provides good views of Big Lake, the tiny Patjens Lakes, and nearby mountains. In late June and early July, the loop features more blooming bear grass than any other trail in Central Oregon.
The results of forest fire and beetle kill can clearly be seen on this loop; however, the beauty is still here.

The Fallowfield loop line was opened in 1892 and ran round the south side of Manchester, linking Sheffield Victoria with Manchester Central.
The large building in the background was Reddish MPD which was opened in 1954, to maintain the EM1 and EM2 locomotives that would operate over the 1500v DC Woodhead Line and also the 506 emu's which operated the Manchester-Glossop services.
The depot closed on the 30th July 1983 and the last freight train on the Fallowfield Loop Line was behined 47443 on a Freightliner from Trafford Park in October 1988.
This was the view from Station Road looking towards Hyde Road Junc a few months after the line had closed, the Fallowfield Loop line is now a cycle path.

Today Mandy and I met at the car park in Jevington and we walked up to Friston Forest to use our macro lenses. It was grey and misty with very light rain coming and going. We had no route so just bimbled about making it up as we went along we had lunch in West Dean Church and so I had an 80mm macro lens and it was surprisingly adaptable to landscapes and general image making. So a great variety of all sorts for the day. As always a great day with lots to see and explore and definitely a place which needs many more visits at all times of year.
The Ormond Beach Loop is a scenic drive in Volusia County, running through and north of the town of Ormond Beach. The scenic drive crosses and runs amongst numerous waterways and salt marshes, including the Tomoka River, Halifax River, and Bulow Creek. These shots were taken from the roadway which runs between Bulow Creek State Park and Tomoka Island State Park, crossing the Tomoka River in the process.
