Friday night, I ran over to Mid-America Car in Kansas City and found this nice looking trio of units sitting outside, ready to go. The three units were the KCS 4841, BNSF 2766, and the CSS 2008.

Another rural scene from central Ohio.
I stopped my car along a dusty country road to take this picture. It was so peaceful and quiet. The only sounds I heard were the birds singing and the clanging of a cowbell in the distance.
Please view in large size to see if you can tell in which year this barn was built.

The Waxeye/Silvereye (Zosterops lateralis) is a very small omnivorous passerine bird native to the south-west pacific.
They are very aggressive and territorial birds and can often be seen engaging in spectacular mid air battles.

Sand can be enjoyed in other places than the beach right? So come to the desert!
Here is a mid-century styled building loosely based on a A-Frame design. Most of the source material I found suggests most of these were and are still found in the USA. I went with a white design rather than a log cabin feel and chose to partly bed it into the scenery which I saw in a few examples. I've tried to incorporate some design features of the 1950's/1960's here. I plan to make a standalone interior room of the era at some point in the near future.
Cheers!

Today but one track remains at this old 28th Street yard on the Soo Line next to the University of Wis. in Superior. Under a fantastic mid-summer sky on 07-03-1976; Soo Line 2556 pulls a transfer run south to Stinson yard.
Visiting relatives in New England in 1966 I chanced across the New York State line to visit the Delaware & Hudson Railroad. My meager notes shows this photo was snapped at Alplaus on July 4th of that now distant year. After doing some research in the D&H books I have in my collection, I believe this location is at the south end of Mohawk yard with the yard office in view to the left. A selection of Alco diesels are present here with RS-3’s trailing, an RS-11 mid-sandwich and two recently purchased RS-32’s in the lead. A wonderful photo with decent sunlight of five Alco product creations for all you Alco addicts in the audience.1299

- www.kevin-palmer.com - June snow is not unusual in the Bighorn Mountains. In fact even more would fall the next week. By noon most of it had melted so I drove up to the Medicine Mountain trailhead at 9,400 feet to find the last bit of white.

In the fall of 1987 the Mark Twain Zephyr was parked at Mid-America Car in Kansas City for awhile. The trainset would change hands over the years, as it has again in 2020. the new owners, Wisconsin Great Northern in Trego, WI has plans in place to restore the train to operating condition, a huge feat that I believe they will accomplish. It will be good to see this train finally in operating condition after all these years stored.
Also there at the time were some ex-Conrail GP38-2's getting renumbered into the EMDX lease fleet, I think these ended up getting leased by the BN when they came out of the shop.
