Amtrak AEM-7 935 was crossing the Susquehanna River with a train of southbound Amfleet cars in 1999.
The EMD built speedster was still wearing its classic Phae III paint that it was built with.
A Knight of Teraxis, and a member of the Noble House of Light. Maybe be a distant ancestor of Lucem.
A MOC co-developed with Commander Spencer as part of the cancelled storyline known only as SALVATION. Notable as the third, and probably final, evolution of a torso design involving Onua's shoulder armor.
This is the MOC in its second phase, with more armored forearms. After these pics I added a bit more forearm armor, and you may get of that version in future.
A glance into Amtrak's Lumber Street facility in 2007 revealed some nice P32-8s in the nicer Phase IV scheme. Unfortunately, Amtrak today insists on sticking with the bland Phase V paint and it just isn't as nice.
This is a compilation of shots (a moontage?) I took of the January 31 lunar eclipse. With some inspiration from others here on Flickr, I decided to order them in the approximate trajectory I witnessed through the sky.
I really lucked out on this one - Missoula is often cloudy in the winter and I wasn't expecting to see this. There were occasional clouds that blew through, but otherwise I was able to see the whole thing. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the moon before the eclipse started - I was awake, just didn't think to take it.
This Moose yearling is going through what I like to call an Awkward Phase, he is looking a bit dorky and it certainly doesn't help that his fur or lack of it in places has something going on. I guess he is still kind of cute despite everything! lol!! :)

Amtrak 164 the freshly painted Phase IV heritage unit leads Amtrak train #5 the westbound California Zephyr at Naperville, IL.
Same characters, new designs.
From left to right, Rion, Dex, Tel, Slice, Comm.
I'm pretty happy with the way all the new helmets turned out, they're a lot better than I thought they'd be. So begins the promotions for Season 2!
Oh, and special thanks to Fallen Bricks for giving me some customizing advice!
Amtrak 184, a P42DC type built in 2001, wears the company's Phase IV paint scheme as part of the railroad's 40th Anniversary celebrations in 2011. Over 10 years later, the 184 is still hard at work pulling passengers across the United States.

Irlanda - Kilkenny - Castillo
ENGLISH:
Kilkenny Castle was built in 1195 to control a fording-point of the River Nore and the junction of several routeways. It was a symbol of Norman occupation and in its original thirteenth-century condition it would have formed an important element of the defences of the town with four large circular corner towers and a massive ditch, part of which can still be seen today on the Parade.
It has been an important site since Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke, commonly known as Strongbow constructed the first castle, probably a wooden structure, in the 12th century. The Anglo-Normans had established a castle in 1173, possibly on the site of an earlier residence of the Mac Giolla Phádraig kings of Osraighe. Kilkenny formed part of the lordship of Leinster, which was granted to Strongbow. Strongbow’s daughter and heiress, Isabel married William Marshall in 1189. The Earl Marshall owned large estates in Ireland, England, Wales and France and managed them effectively. He appointed Geoffrey fitz Robert as seneschal of Leinster and so began a major phase of development in Kilkenny, including the construction of Kilkenny Castle and the agreement of rents and privileges with burgesses or citizens of the borough. The first stone castle on the site, was completed in 1213. This was a square-shaped castle with towers at each corner; three of these original four towers survive to this day
The property was transferred to the people of Kilkenny in 1967 and the castle and grounds are now managed by the Office of Public Works. The gardens and parkland adjoining the castle are open to the public. The Parade Tower is a conference venue. Awards and conferring ceremonies of the graduates of "Kilkenny Campus" of National University of Ireland, Maynooth have been held there since 2002.

ESPAÑOL:
El Castillo de Kilkenny está situado en la localidad homónima del Condado irlandés de Kilkenny. Esta fue la residencia de la familia Butler, antes llamada FitzWalter. Pasó a manos del Estado y fue abierto al público.
Parte de la GalerÃa de Arte Nacional se encuentra en el lugar. En el lado que da hacia la ciudad hay jardines ornantales. Este castillo es uno de los lugares más visitados por los turistas en Irlanda.
La fundación del castillo se remonta hacia el año 1190 perteneciendo a la familia Butler desde el siglo XIV hasta 1920, fecha en que Martin Breyer lo adquirió. Las principales estancias son la biblioteca, el comedor, la habitación china y la Longa Gallery.
El castillo actual está localizado sobre un terreno elevado en la ribera del RÃo Nore. Esta situación estratégica fue en dónde estaba situado el castillo de los monarcas locales, la familia O'Carroll (840), O´Dunphys y Fitzpatricks, antes de la invasión normanda de Irlanda.
Richard de Clare, segundo conde de Pembroke (conocido como Strongbow) construyó la primera torre normanda en este lugar en 1172. Veinte años más tarde su yerno, William Marshal conde de Pembroke, puso la primera piedra del castillo en el mismo lugar en que estaban situadas las torres, de las cuales se conservan tres en la actualidad.
La familia Butler llegó a Irlanda con la invasión normanda, cambiando su nombre por el de Walter en 185. El castillo pasó a manos de Sir Gilbert de Bohun quien heredó el castillo y el condado de manos de su madre en 1270. En el año 1300 fue expulsado por Eduardo I de Inglaterra pero se reinstaló en 1303, conservándolo hasta su muerte en 1381.
