Amtrak 161, the 50th Anniversary Phase I commemorative unit, works its way out of downtown Chicago with Hiawatha Service train 337. The signal bridge here has some of the last vintage lights in the area, with Milwaukee Road searchlights on the east side, and old four-aspect color-lights on the west.

P086 rounds the curve at L'Enfant Plaza in Washington DC, led by the second incarnation of Amtrak's Phase II heritage unit.

This old tower named "Grey Tower" was built between 1357 and 1371 during the first phase of the construction of the city wall of Neuwied-Engers (Germany) on behalf of count Wilhelm I. zu Wied and served as a customs tower for many years. Over the centuries, the original name "Graven-Turm" became todays name "Grey Tower".

'Le fait est que tu sais ce que je cherche

Collo spalle mento

Font de moi le love-héros

D'une histoire d'O'

Il petto mi sorride perverso

Salut, ma blonde, et sans rancune,

Un pour toi,

Un pour moi

Uno a tutti e due'

In the mid-90s, the professional wrestling stable known as the New World Order was the hottest thing in pop culture at the time. The nWo, as it was known, had a saying, "When you're nWo, you're nWo 4-LIFE!" 25 years later, Amtrak has apparently taken a page out of the nWo's playbook. When Amtrak's heritage unit 184, painted in the "Phase IV" livery in 2011 in celebration of the railroad's 40th anniversary, was painted back to standard "Phase V" in early 2023, everyone thought "Phase IV" was officially done. Then, unexpectedly and from seemingly out of nowhere, in early May 2023, Amtrak released 164 as the new Phase IV heritage unit (albeit missing the 40th Anniversary niceties.) The first anyone seemingly ever knew of this unit was when it suddenly showed up in Chicago Union Station. Two days later it was leading it's maiden voyage on Train #5, the westbound California Zephyr. Here it can be seen passing through Somonauk, IL, on the return portion of this maiden voyage on the point of the Zephyr's eastbound counterpart, Train #6. In tow behind trailing locomotive 54 is a special treat, two brand new Siemens ALC-42 Chargers, 330 & 331, in Amtrak's newest "Phase 7" livery. So it would seem that, like the New World Order, when Amtrak is Phase IV, it is Phase IV-LIFE!.

The Köhlbrand is an arm of the river Elbe which is leading part of the large sea port of Hamburg.

 

It is the second largest port in Europe and one of the main hubs on the European main land.

 

The Köhlbrandbrücke on the left is the second longest bridge in Germany. It connects the container terminals of the sea port with the A7 express way.

#6, the eastbound California Zephyr, splits a pair of DRGW-era intermediates near Cisco, Utah behind a P42DC in Phase 7 livery leading.

The eastbound Empire Builder has a matched trio of ALC-42 locomotives in the latest fresh look as it rolls into the Minnesota Commercial off the BNSF Midway Subdivision. I think this is a pretty good-looking passenger train.

As I sit here writing this in the final hour of 2020, reflecting back upon the year that was, I cannot help but think of something that someone said on one of the myriad podcasts I listen to. If for nothing else, 2020 has provided us all with the one thing we could never get enough of: Time. And what we have chosen to do with the time that has been given us has been one of the most important decisions of the year. For me, in between many other projects, I have finally began the long process of organizing and sorting my old photos. Here is one of them. Amtrak Phase 3 Heritage Unit 145 leads westbound train #380, the Illinois Zephyr, around the bend at Main Street in downtown Sandwich, IL on an early September evening in 2014.

'It was way past midnight

And she still couldn't fall asleep

This night the dream was leavin'

She tried so hard to keep

And with the new day's dawning

She felt it driftin' away

Not only for a cruise

Not only for a day'

I have no idea whether this is actually accurate as a chart of the phases of the moon, because I get so, so confused by directions and things, and I do not know if that is because of my dyslexia or what, but it took so long just trying to compare which cut out bit was on what side. And this was precision Oreo slicing (how is it that when you are not trying to preserve the neatness of it, they turn out perfect, but when you are trying to keep an entire disc of cream, it is impossible?)

 

Also, not my original idea - I think I first saw it when thinking about science activities for my lesson plan assignment.

For a short time, Amtrak’s California Zephyr saw 161 on rotation. This was Amtrak’s Phase I heritage unit and replaced the previous Phase I, 156, after it hit a truck and got severely damaged. Just like 156, 161 also has been retired as a few weeks ago it caught fire in Washington D.C. and was burnt to a crisp.

Amtrak 130 smokes it up as it drags the Capitol Limited out of Chicago tonight between storms.

It's a phase I'm going through.
