Seven months into the infancy of Conrail and renumberings were quite evident. Some were acceptable by the Conrail "Fallen Flags" followers and some were just plain brutal. Ex EL, exx Erie NW2 #415 has been renumbered and it seemed to me that Conrail had no standardization when it came to dealing with it's "Patch Jobs" at this time. Shop workers probably did the best that they could do under the circumstances. Suffern N.Y. 11-03-1976. Howard Kent Jr. photo.
The Raritan Valley Line has been dominated by consists of ALP-45DPs and multilevel cars for the past several years. Due to ongoing PTC implementation issues, NJ Transit has adjusted schedules and consists on various lines. One result is this "retro" RVL consist which includes single-level Comet coaches powered by a lone, patched-up GP40PH-2B 4219. This consist would have been common here through the mid-2000s.
Patch #4 for the Craftster embroidery patch swap. I found this super awesome image off of a search engine and now can't find it again! It says "Monsieur Hedgehog Takes His Tea with Cream, No Sugar". I think it's my favorite so far!
The Expedition 70 patch is designed around the central yin-yang symbol representing balance; first and foremost, the balance of our beautiful planet Earth that is encircled by the yin-yang symbol and which forms part of the Expedition number. In our exploration of space, we are reminded of the uniqueness of Earth; the further we push the boundaries of human existence, the stronger our longing for our home planet grows. As our understanding of the cosmos expands, so does our understanding of Earth, and although we live in an ever-changing world, we recognize the need for a planet in balance to ensure our future.
Space exploration is also about creating the future of our dreams. The tentative first steps we take today will hopefully become a well-trodden path in the future. This is represented stylistically by the “retro-futuristic” design of the patch, which mimics the design of the posters depicting the future from the early days of the space age. It is also emphasized by the yellow, orange, and red colors suggesting a sunrise. Lastly, the dynamism in the depiction of the number 7 suggests not only the physical launch into space, but also humanity’s progress towards the future.
CSX Q410 rolls past ongoing Metro construction in Franconia back in 1994. The former RF&P mainline was firmly under CSX control and patched GP40 6858 is unfortunate photographic evidence of that fact.
It's even worse now considering that in 1999 Conrail also went away. We can never have nice things.
Back to my trip again!

Our first morning in Cromwell. We woke to heavy fog which took a while to lift. Driving along the Felton Road to go to our next winery tasting at Felton Road winery.

The Central Otago wine region is the world's southern-most commercial wine growing region. Central Otago's best-known wines are its Pinot noirs, but many white wine varieties are also popular. The Central Otago Wine Region is the formal geographic indication for wines grown in Central Otago.
At around 300 metres (980 ft) elevation, Central Otago's vineyards are protected from New Zealand's characteristic maritime climate by high mountains up to 3,700 metres (12,100 ft) . They thus have the only true continental climate zone in the country, with large daily and seasonal temperature extremes. Rainfall averages around 375-600mm: summer is hot and relatively dry, and often accompanied by the Nor'wester foehn wind; autumn is short, cool and sunny; and winter is cold, with substantial falls of snow. Heavy frosts are common throughout winter and, indeed, frost can occur at any time between March and November. One of Central Otago's warmest wine growing areas can be found just north of the Lowburn Inlet area.

I photographed this Crimson-patched Longwing (Heliconius erato) at Emerald Valley, a private nature reserve northwest of Lake Yojoa near Peña Blanca, Honduras. It was late in its life, with parts of its wings worn. It keeps to a small home range and seldom wanders into the ranges of its neighbors. Its caterpillars feed on passion-flower vines, and the adults share their warning colors with other Heliconius butterflies. Emerald Valley's conservation work is led by Robert Gallardo and Olivia DĂaz. Adults feed on pollen, collecting it from flowers such as Lantana camara.
I made this frame with a Canon R5 and the RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 plus the RF 1.4x extender, at 1/60 sec, f/11, ISO 800. Emerald Valley's list includes Emesis eleanorae, a butterfly known only from Honduras.

My Vet occasionally takes in dogs, either found stray or owner-surrendered. I try to take pictures of the animals up for adoptions, as it is proven that better pictures go a long way towards swift adoption.
As of the posting of this (January 30, 2016), Patches and Rascal here are up for adoption as a pair. Contact Kingston Road Animal Hospital in East York, Toronto.

I had intended, all summer, to visit a creamery just outside of town. People say it's where to go for the best ice cream! Today, I stumbled on Patches Creamery. No one had exaggerated; the ice cream is incredible. They also have a wonderful team of alpacas, goats, geese, ducks, and miniature horses to greet customers as they arrive.
It's almost worth going just for the animals!
Standing in a patch of welcome sunlight Class 120 M50657 is the rear car of the 09.11 Nottingham to Derby service.
Beeston station was built in 1847 by the Midland Railway, the single storey station building with its intricate gables is a joy and the later addition of the ridge and furrow awning fits in well with the character of the building, the same cannot be said for the concrete footbridge however.
