Union Pacific has donated several historic locomotives, including DDA40X “Centennial” 6936, 2-10-2 5511, and 4-6-6-4 “Challenger” 3985, to Railroading Heritage of Midwest America. On November 19th the equipment arrived in Silvis, Illinois; it will be housed in the former Rock Island Silvis shop complex now owned by RRHMA.
Upon arrival into Silvis, the equipment was moved into the shop by the RRHMA crew. First inside was Centennial 6936, followed shortly thereafter by 5511.
A brief ceremony was held for invited guests during which Union Pacific’s Senior Manager of Heritage Operations Ed Dickens officially handed over the locomotives and cars to RRHMA President Steve Sandberg.
UP "Challenger" 3985 was moved in a short time later in the company of UP business car "Selma" and other donated passenger equipment.
Thanks to the Union Pacific Steam Crew and the RRHMA volunteers for making it all happen!

The old paint booth at Gene Winfield's place holds a dust-covered, forgotten treasure. Will this Merc custom ever be finished?
Night, 1 minute exposure. Full moon, sodium and mercury vapor lights, natural LED flashlight and red-gelled strobe.
Reprocessed and replaced, December 2024.
No this is not a Photoshop job nor is it another screwup by the Huntington Shops paintbooth. The CSXX lettering on GE AC4400CW #136 is the result of having recieved center portion of the longhood from a later production unit after having major mechanical work. Starting with CSX #391 there was a minor carbody change from earlier units and this led to the lettering on the hood being pushed back several feet compared to earlier units. On the opposite side of the locomotive the lettering read "CCSX". Louisville,KY 4-6-08.
A bicycle painter and a bicycle mechanic are seen working in a small scale bicycle factory in Bogota, Colombia. Due to the strong, vibrant cycling culture in Colombia, with cycling being one of the two most popular sports in the country, dozens of bike workshops and artisanal, often family-run bicycle factories were always spread out through the Colombian cities. However, growing import of cheap bicycles and components from China during the last decade has led to a significant decline in domestic bicycle production. Traditional no-name bike manufacturers are forced to close down their factories, struggling to survive in the competitive bicycle market. © Jan Sochor Photography

One of the many different tunnels found inside the St. Thomas Assembly Plant in Southwold, Ontario, Canada. This particular tunnel was used in the painting process, from here the car bodies would have moved to a different tunnel with infrared heaters to quickly dry the fresh paint before moving on to the next step in the manufacturing process. At the time of it's closure in late 2011, this plant produced only three vehicles, the Ford Crown Victoria (which was commonly used for taxis and police patrol vehicles), Mercury Grand Marquis and the Lincoln Town Car. The final Crown Victoria to come off the assembly line at this plant was shipped to and sold in Saudi Arabia.

Even more puzzling in figuring out this unit's identity was the chevron pattern and colors still on the rear. It appears to be a GP35 by counting the radiator doors and the more square than rectangle air intake behind the cab, but it doesn't have the notched frame typical of a 35.

So this is just me test fitting everything with tape holding it together. Just like to make sure it's going to work. Also there is a look inside to see how I did the cutting of the wall sections to hold the roof up.
A work in progress was found in the paint booth at the POVA. The SP Gyra-light notch left on the nose was really the only spotting feature left on this unit. There was a high mounted bell right behind the cab ala' Milwaukee style, but the headlight obviously doesn't match that. In the short time in had available, I wasn't able to gather anymore info on her.

Toronto Transit Commission’s (TTC) Greenwood Yard celebrates its 50th anniversary as part of Doors Open Toronto. The maintenance facility and rail yard repairs and services subway vehicles on the Bloor-Danforth line (Line 2). Previously the site was a brickyard and Toronto’s largest landfill site.
One of the numerous Leyland Olympians which came with 1990's purchase of Crosville, this one was part of a small batch which was loaned out to First Capital in London during the early 2000s, in exchange for a batch of Dennis Dominators which were received at Rock Ferry. Upon the Olympians' return, two were repainted and became the last buses to emerge from Adderley Green's paintbooth in red and yellow, although which was the final of the two is unknown. Here is 30059, A160 UDM, in Stoke operating from Newcastle to Meir Broadway and thence to Hanley on service 28.

This is the back of the building and the addon building that I am going to put at the back. But it is designed to go on the side. Also the roof peices are clear plexiglass. I just have not taken the covering off them yet.
An adjustable platform inside 47th Street's paintbooth allows the guys to work top to bottom to align the RTA graphics just right.

Another shot taken in the same spot as a similar photo taken a couple of weeks before.
Recently shot for a future client who had a numbers matching 427 Corvette. Simply a beautiful car, I cannot wait for it to be finished and shoot it under the lights.
Will be used in a vehicle wrap for an advertising van. It will be part of a layered shot on the back..I'm helping a buddy who owns a collision shop. It's been fun shooting cars again..

its backlit but I was not going to pass up shooting freshly painted Paducah & Louisville GP38-2 #1998, painted for the University of Kentucky. At the time of this photo the unit had only been on the road for 3 days since release from the paintbooth. The UofL unit coupled behind it had been on the road for 2 weeks already.
