Early morning sun glints off Chessie 4361 on a CSX NB approaching Plymouth, Michigan, here passing under the distant I-275 bridge in January 1986.

The Iowa Interstate CBBI-01 with a solo unit on the point and a NS Geep along for the ride is eastbound through Grinnell, IA. Built in 1893 by the Rock Island this depot has seen more than 130 years of history pass by its windows.

A westbound Burlington Northern freight rumbles through Aurora, Illinois, and passes BN/Metra commuter trains laying over in Hill Yard on Saturday, April 16, 1988. The second unit on the freight is leased Kyle Railroad EMD GP40 No. 3116.

Glencoe, Scotland

 

When you go through Glencoe for the first time, the atmosphere becomes suddenly very particular and heavy of History! The vast landscapes are breathtaking whatever the light or weather conditions. I would definitely recommend that place as a stop over if you are road trippin' in Scotland. This is where happened the massacre of Glencoe in 1692, in which 38 members of the Clan MacDonald of Glencoe were killed by forces acting on behalf of the government of King William III following the Glorious Revolution.

Signal replacement on the former Montana Rail Link main line has been at a rapid pace in 2024, quickly moving to the far west end of the railroad on BNSF’s MRL Fourth Subdivision. The westbound searchlight signals protecting the west siding switch at Noxon will soon fall too, seen here with a westbound BNSF coal train passing the endangered searchlights on July 5, 2024.

Although the population of Hoy is now only around 400, there was a much larger population in the past. In 1890 there were four schools on the island and four churches, suggesting a much larger population. Despite the larger population there was no paved road between the north of the island and the south, only a footpath. There was, however, an unsurfaced road between the two villages on the north of the isle; Rackwick and Moaness

A Central Railroad of Indiana GP50 in Rail America colors was leading an Indiana Railroad GP38 and a Rail America former Cape Breton & Central Nova Scotia GP50 still in Burlington Northern paint on a coal train at INRD's Hiawatha Yard in Jasonville.

 

The former Milwaukee Road's Latta Sub was a very interesting piece of railroad.

Traffic passing down London Wall at night, Barbican, City of London. Another view crossed off my list. This street is so called because alongside on the left can still be seen sections of the original London Wall dating back to Roman and Medieval times.

CS5 can't parse 7D2 RAW files so used DPP4, straight to PS, slight rebalance with a quick excursion to Topaz De Noise as shot was in grey/low light. Its sharpen routines don't harden edges as does the Adobe code.

Thanks my friend for your support.

Have a nice week :))

Foxton locks....Catch up soon

On a day which started with thick fog but which gradually improved (though some residual haze is evident in this shot), Standard 4 tank no. 80080 crosses the embankment at Burrs with the 14.15 Heywood to Rawtenstall service on the 1st November 2015.

I was thoroughly enjoying watching the passing storms which were about 60km away as they drifted from west to east along the horizon. Just as the sunset started making the distant clouds glow, another storm suddenly hit us from behind. This was taken through a curtain of pouring rain, hence the slight softness of the detail. Even though I was hoping for it, the lightning bolt was a big bonus!

 

Later storms that evening knocked out the power for around 8 hours, but thankfully did little other damage despite dumping a sudden 40mm of rain.

 

Happy Nice Wonderful Clouds Tuesday!
