Just south of Park City, UT is the Alpine Loop, Miles of trees and especially Aspen groves. A must see when in the Park City area.

A Loop-bound CTA Pink Line train moves through the West Loop, between Morgan and Clinton stations on the Lake Street Elevated.
Good day at the Mach Loop. Not much in the way of aircraft but the weather was glorious! These were taken on Cad East but next time I'll be on Cad West even tho the light is more challenging.
A nice lil single spun up from a sample of "Ribbon Dance". I think this will make a fantastic headband!
The little steam loco hauls its train around the Batasia Loop on the Darjeeling narrow gauge railway way back in 1982.
The group of Indian tourist’s attention is focussed on me rather than the train they have surely come to see. The clouds have obscured the fine views of the valley, the distant peaks, and the foreground is delightfully uncluttered.
Today’s scene is a totally different picture. First came a few tourist stalls selling gaudy tat, then superseded by formal manicured gardens dominated by giant war memorial erected in the middle of the loop.
They say - “Never go back” . . .

With a few more reverse curves to go, the AFT will soon be traversing the famous Techachapi Loop as the train makes its way south over the pass. Visible above the smoke plume is the top level of the loop itself.

Train of the Day
8/18/21
Norfolk Southern Asheville based local P87 drops down the famed 'Old Fort Loops' on their daily run from Asheville to Bridgewater and back. With the closing of the Asheville to Linwood portion of the S-Line as a mainline route locals P87 during the day and P60 at night are the only two trains that traverse this famed stretch of track. Here the train navigates through one of the many rock cuts in the loops, as it prepares to duck into one of the many tunnels in the loops.
CPKC's Fording River Sub is a 33 mile-long branch line serving 4 coal mines on the west side of Crowsnest Pass. The line was built in the early 1970's and features a steady stream of coal trains carrying Canadian carbon to the Pacific for export.
Here, at the far northern end of the line, CP 9354 slowly & steadily loads a coal train at the EVR Fording River Mine. The train is sized to match the length of the loading loop almost exactly, as the DPU has cleared the switch only a few car lengths before the head-end completes its circuit through the load-out.
Sharp eyes will note that's a spring switch, lined to the right for the inbound train but posing no issue for the outbound train to run through the switch against the points.

A fern in the garden which seems to create only one new frond per year, in midsummer. Its unwinding creates striking patterns.
Good day at the Mach Loop. Not much in the way of aircraft but the weather was glorious! These were taken on Cad East but next time I'll be on Cad West even tho the light is more challenging.
The elevated Loop railway structure through and around the Loop area in Chicago. Amazing steel work and pillars supporting the public transport system built above the roads and traffic.

First time trying a Hydrogen Alpha filter on our unmodified DSLR camera, not worth a CCD but still happy with the difference it makes! You can see all the details in the link!

Going through some shots from earlier in this year and re-discovered this one inside Newport Street Gallery, London.
The driver of Colas Rail's 70801 takes an opportunity to relax for a few minutes as the 6E90 0634 Oxwellmains Lafarge Colas to Seaham Harbour Colas Rail is booked to be looped at Morpeth North for 20 minutes.

This little blur caught my attention in the garden yesterday. I've never seen one before! It flaps its wings so fast it is just a fuzzy beige blur in flight. It's small, about a 1 1/4" wingspan. The markings are so beautiful!
update: This is a Silver Y moth. Thanks to Christine for the ID.
updqte #2: On second thought, an alfalfa looper. Almost identical.
