Precision National SD24 6302 on the BN at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in May 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in October 1959 as Southern SD24 2504 ( c/n 15600 ) on EMD Order 5606. It was renumbered by the Southern to 6302. It was purchased by PNC during January 1978 and put into a lease pool, first leased to the Milwaukee Road and later to the BN. During 1979 it was sent to the Milwaukee Road for rebuilding. During the rebuilding the turbocharger and dynamic brakes were removed, resulting in an 1800 horsepower locomotive. Precision classed it as a SD10, numbered it 1802, and leased it to the BN for about a year. It was later leased to the C&NW and ultimately purchased by the C&NW, becoming C&NW SD18R 6624.

I've really wanted to catch one of CP's "heritage" scheme SD70ACUs leading a train ever since they were released. As with prior heritage unit series (UP's, NS's, Amtrak's) it seemed like I was cursed when it came to getting them; with them always seeming to lead on inclement weather days, come through when I was stuck at work, etc.
It looked like this unseasonably pleasant Sunday in February would be no exception; I was gritting my teeth based on reports that 7010 was leading eastbound manifest 288 along the River and Tomah Subdivisions in the morning. Due to being short-staffed at work, my usual 3AM-noon Monday-Friday schedule was switched to Sunday-Thursday; with me working 5AM-2PM on alternate Sundays, including this one.
However, thanks to frequent updates posted to Facebook by railfans located further west, I calculated I would have time to grab my gear and beat the train here after work. It's not the most stellar of shots, but being an eastbound in the late afternoon my options were somewhat limited. In the last three days I've now gotten on the board for military tribute and heritage SD70ACUs, after having been 0-fer on the units until Friday the 21st!

Sweetwater Precision Weapons received a call from the SAS, asking them to create a bullpup weapon capable of taking down enemies quickly and quietly, but it needed a low penetration, as it would be used in urban environments.
Sweetwater gave Juice the task to design that weapon, and Juice, who was about to have a good breakfast, had an idea in mind...
The AUG Para was modified by Juice, giving it everything it needs in order to by silent and deadly, and capable of taking down targets at night.

This is, as you might guess, a weapon to celebrate the new PMG update, and to celebrate my summer holiday!
HUGE thanks to Doctor Noob, who works hard in order to give us these updates. Thanks Doc!

The United States Air Force Thunderbirds aerial demonstration team flies in formation during an open house and air show May 10, 2014, at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, N.J. The event provided more than 300,000 visitors an opportunity to learn more about America's only tri-service joint base, which included demonstrations and static displays of aircraft and vehicles from all five services and various civilian agencies.

7.62x51mm battle rifle.
EDIT 10/19/15 - Replaced the pistol grip with an ergonomic version, enhancing stability and accuracy.
A powerful battle rifle developed and manufactured by Barton Precision Industries, the BR-28 combines simplicity with precision.
Created from a mix of SC-2010 and ACE-21 parts, it features the receiver, handguard and sights of the former, and the stock, magazine and mag release of the latter. Combined, it creates an easy to use platform that has found favor with law enforcement and criminals alike.
Its main drawback is its low rate of fire of 600 RPM. Paltry by today's standards, but sufficient enough to provide sustained. accurate fire. However, there are proposed future iterations with increased fire rates.
This particular BR-28 is equipped with a bipod-grip combo, muzzle brake, and a Barton Precision 5.5x magnification "EZ-Scope".
Note the upper swan has its wing tip resting on the back of the lower swan. Lets see the Blue Angles do that.

Number 6340 was built in November 1959 as Southern Railway SD24 2521 ( c/n 25617 ) on EMD Order 5606, renumbered by the Southern in 1972 to 6340. It was sold to PNC in January 1978 along with 40 other retired Southern SD24's, joining PNC's lease fleet, this unit and several others were leased to the BN during 1979. During 1982 this unit was sold to the ICG, rebuilt at Paducah, Kentucky and became ICG SD20 2036.
The Kuikuro is today, the people with the largest population in the Upper Xingu. They are a sub-system with other Carib groups who speak dialectal variants of the same language (Kalapalo, and Matipu Nahukwá) and make the multilingual system known as the Upper Xingu, in the southern IT Xingu Indigenous Park. In the history of formation of this system, the Carib peoples are considered as important as aruak (Waura and Mehinaku), although it confers on its aruak initial matrix. Kuikuros are the producers of the famous snail necklaces and belts by which continue to play a specific role in the traditional system of trade and payments system of the upper Xingu. For other cultural and social aspects, such as shamanism, cosmology and rituals or celebrations, the Xingu Indigenous Park section presents elements that are also among the Kuikuro.
Solidarity with all workers at MTA, DSNY, DOT, and everyone else in the public sector civil services working round the clock to keep this city moving.
