Topping out at 3.8% and featuring curves as tight as 19.3 degrees, the Claypool Loops are a formidable opponent for NF&G Mine Run H801 as they muscle 50 mtys up the mountain for Anjean.
We experience this Mystery in three ways: as Silence, as Word, and as Understanding. Word, in this sense, refers to all there is, since we experience it as somehow directed at us: it “speaks to us.” Word has its origin in Silence. Unless silence “comes to word,” our utterance is mere chitchat. Word aims at understanding. Understanding, in turn, is that dynamic process in which we listen so deeply to the Word that it takes hold of us and leads us back to its source—to Silence. The Cappadocian Fathers of the fourth century referred to this dynamic process as “the circle dance of the Blessed Trinity.”

Another cute find in my garden, although frustratingly I didn't get this looping looper moth caterpillar sharp! It has such a distinctive-looking, and cute, face. Any ideas on ID much appreciated... as always I've looked at loads of images online and drawn a blank!
Thanks to curiosity thrills for the possible ID of brimstone moth caterpillar.

I keep the horses' riding tack—bridle, bit, and reins—hung on brackets on the wall of the little hay barn, one set for Spirit and one for Andy. To keep the long reins from drooping down to the floor, where they would be imperiled by passing goat hooves and cat paws, I loop the lower end of the reins up over the mounting bracket, creating the droplet shapes shown here, caught in the morning light spilling through the barn door.

Making your way in life in the most direct, straight-line fashion is not always achievable. Sometimes it’s because we get distracted. Other times it’s because we do not know the way. And maybe sometimes it’s just because we have the need to stop and play.
Taken with this camera.

Naast een zwaar sneltramnet is er in Portland (Oregon) ook een stadstramnet waarop lagevloertrams rijden. Net als de sneltram wordt de Willamette-rivier op meerdere plaatsen gekruist. Hier zien we lagevloertram 021 op de Broadway Bridge. De stalen bascule brug stamt uit 1913. Vanaf de opening van de brug tot 1940 maakte ook het oude tramdrijf van Portland gebruik van deze rivierkruising. Sinds 2012 rijdt de nieuwe ringlijn van Portland weer over de Broadway Bridge.
De lagevloertram is in de Verenigde Staten bij United Streetcar gebouwd en is gebaseerd op de Tsjechische lagevloertrams van Skoda en Inekon waarvan ook exemplaren in Portland rijden. Bijna alle wagens dragen een andere kleur. Bovendien zijn de zijwanden en koppen in complementaire kleuren geschilderd. Als een wagen de hoek omgaat en de andere zijwand zichtbaar wordt lijkt het of de tram volledig van kleur verschiet. Dat maakt dat de "streetcar" in Portland een kleurrijk beeld geeft.
Meer trams bij op en onder bruggen en viaducten vindt u in de set "Bij de brug".

Chicagoan Loop
Photography – Glossy

Chicagoan Loop is a portrait of the people out and about in the downtown Loop district in Chicago. The title also hints that the people themselves are on somewhat of a loop: any day you venture out among them, you will always see people of every race, orientation, gender and religion. You will see people in costume, being peaceful protestors, celebrating at a rally, out for errands or to meet for lunch. We are all different and all individuals and in that way – we are all celebrated as being human beings. This collage portrait of the people of Chicago is comprised of 1,014 individual portraits.

Santa Fe 5581 leads a well powered eastbound train through the world famous "Tehachapi Loop" at Walong, California.
From Wikipedia: "The Tehachapi Loop is a 3,779-foot-long (0.72 mi; 1.15 km) spiral, or helix, on the Union Pacific Railroad Mojave Subdivision through Tehachapi Pass, of the Tehachapi Mountains in Kern County, south-central California. The line connects Bakersfield and the San Joaquin Valley to Mojave in the Mojave Desert.
Rising at a steady two-percent grade, the track gains 77 feet (23 m) in elevation and makes a 1,210-foot-diameter (370 m) circle. Any train that is more than 3,800 feet (1,200 m) long — about 56 boxcars — passes over itself going around the loop. At the bottom of the loop, the track passes through Tunnel 9, the ninth tunnel built as the railroad was extended from Bakersfield."

I had some time after meetings on this autumn day in the late afternoon to drive the famous Alpine Loop in Utah. The 17-mile drive is known for its bright autumn leaves, which start to appear in September, but tend to be at their best in October and into November--depending on the weather, of course.
A short eastbound manifest traverses the huge curved basallt fill bridging the gap between the western and eastern slopes of Lynch Coulee, in central Washington State. This track alignment is much better known and described as the 'Trinidad loop'.
This fill was constructed by the Great Northern in 1902 as part of a project to ease some of the tighter curves in the area, and replace a curved wooden trestle further south down the coulee. While some of the more sinuous trackage to the east was replaced, the ten degree curve over the fill remains a permanent speed restriction to this day. This track is part of the twelve mile stretch of 1% eastward grade up Trinidad Hill that begins at MP 1633 of BNSF's Columbia River Subdivision.
If this were the 1990's, I could assume the short manifest train of three bay grain hoppers and two bay covered hoppers separated by a few LPG tanks was the lowly #600 from Everett to Spokane. Today I'm not so sure. Either way, I was pleased to find anything rolling during daylight hours on the now sparsely used ex-GN mainline across Washington State.
