The Reading heritage unit leads IAIS CBBI east past the depot at La Salle, IL. This unique depot, complete with a still standing train order signal, is a must shoot given the chance.

Grant has been good at keeping an eye on the peeps and Ruffles, our broody hen. Today, though, it has been so hot he has spent the majority of his time flopped out on the floor. ;)
The old train order signals stand out above the cab of 4108 as it shoves three Arrow IIIs past Bernardsville station on the Gladstohje Line.
4108 was shoving a set of Arrow IIIs from Gladstone, NJ to the MMC after one unit of a married pair suffered truck damage in a derailment within Gladstone Yard several days prior. The pair was severed, with the other half able to make a shop move earlier. This move required the use of a dolly on one axle, which required restricted speed for the entire eastward move.

A B&W take on the previous shot. I came across this sad little scene today and I can't deny it really tugs at my heartstrings. This tired, dirty and abandoned stuffed toy with chunks of its lost stuffing piled around it, left behind on the beaten up patio of a recently closed-down bar on West Broadway - soon to become just another new generic building no one can afford to live in. Such a melancholy atmosphere and I confess I seriously debated whether to rescue this little kitty-cat from its sad demise.

With their locomotive stopped at Martinsburg Junction, PA (MP 21.5), the crew of Everett Railroad Mogul #11 converses with their dispatcher via the lineside telephone box, negotiating a clearance to proceed south.

Chris, You're lucky. That Bow is the best figure I've ever created. No joke :)
Rea Towing steam tugs Greygarth, Yorkgarth and Carlgarth await their next duty in the south eastern corner of Birkenhead Alfred Basin, on a Sunday afternoon sometime in the mid to late 1950's.
This image was presented to me as a print which originated from a trade calendar in the mid-eighties. It was subsequently framed and has hung in our kitchen for a good few years!
This is one of my all-time favourite tug photographs which I thought was worthy of retaining in a more useable format and that it should be available to a wider audience, so I had the image scanned and here it is.
Local observers from the Wirral will note the numerous changes between the scene presented here and how it looks now!
Sadly, I don't know who took the original photograph, but I am glad that on that particular Sunday, he chose to take this excellent composition and in doing so, recorded a slice of history for posterity.
To give some idea of these tugs longevity - Graygarth was built in 1915 and scrapped in 1961, Yorkgarth was built in 1923 and scrapped in 1962. Typical dimensions (Yorkgarth in this instance) 96ft 6in length, 22ft 8in beam, 11ft 2in draught. 178gt, powered by a 3-cyclinder triple expansion surface condensing steam engine driving a 10ft diameter propellor, giving a bollard pull of 10 tons.
I am beginning to appreciate these robust vessels more and more now that I have started to research them more.
A CN westbound gets orders on the fly right near sunset on May 9, 1987 at Clifton near Niagara Falls. This was just a spur of the moment grab shot as I had no idea the op was out hooping up orders on the other side of the train. If I would have I'd have framed it up better and put the whole signal mast in the shot. In any case cabooses, ops, and train orders were a dying breed by the time of this shot.
Yours truly "breaking in" as a tower operator and copying a train order at AC Tower in Marion, Ohio.
