CSX D79522 passes the farm inside the horseshoe curve just west of Fairfield on CSX's Hanover Sub. The train is climbing a steep uphill grade that often brings trains to its knees, but today they have enough power to take the hill at track speed.
56053 ‘Sir Morgannwg Ganol/ County of Mid Glamorgan’ heads past the 1898-built Barry Docks Offices with an empty coal train from Barry to Tower colliery.
Even though most Welsh coal mines had closed by 1994, residual coal traffic, particularly serving the power station at Aberthaw generated plenty of rail traffic. On this day (unusually busy) Sunday, Aberthaw received 7 trains: 2 from Tower, 4 from Cwmbargoed and 1 from Jersey Marine.
The impressive building, in the baroque revival style, was built to regulate the vast coal traffic that flowed out of Barry in the early 20th century. Prior to the first world war Barry was the busiest coal port in the world. Over 11 million tonnes of coal per year were being shipped through Barry with more than 18,000 employees working the docks.
The building was in good repair in 1994: 10 years earlier a fire had seriously damaged the structure, and the port owner had recently completed an extensive refurbishment. In 2021, the building houses part of the Vale of Glamorgan Council.

Misty start to the day. I had lined up the Moon where I wanted it to be when I had an unexpected fly-past......
As my feet walk me forward with purpose, I glance back at what I was, and whom I had been. There is no shame or regret, just the knowledge that I was. The new light beacons me forward, and I smile.
Noting the nice current photos of Chestnut St. a review of decades past won't hurt. Still 2 main tracks, no steampipe, old High Bridge and no TC&W yet. Amtrak insp underway by Milw I&M.
It's a Wild Bergamot blossom that is showing its age.

Distressed,neglected and abandoned ,this decaying building still has some photographic appeal.The crumbling brickwork,the peeling paint and fading colour contrasts full of chararacter in my eyes.This is a first floor door and window and small platform,I can only assume it was a warehouse in some past life.

The Wooden Pole on the Peak District's Longshaw Estate is said to stand on the site of an ancient pole. You can see the pole itself in the distance in the top right corner of this photo. Although periodically replaced by the National Trust, who now own the land, the original pole is believed to have served as a way marker/guide post on an old packhorse route and may also have marked the boundary between the villages of Hathersage and Holmesfield. Whatever its original purpose, it occupies a commanding position beside the A6187, and yet many visitors to the area drive past without even noticing it. However, its status as a landmark gives the whole area of countryside surrounding it the name Wooden Pole.
