Precision measurements tools, old and new. A digital calliper, a couple of years old and a micrometer which was my father's so must be a good 70 years old, and still works perfectly!

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!
Installation of 7 steel cables for a new wood chips conveyor system. Each cable was about 700 meters long. Flying at extremely low altitude and in real "slow motion" above a large industrial site requires maximim precision. Only most experienced pilots will be permitted to such a job. This mission was completed in 4 hours, a conventional intallation on the ground would have taken several days.

ESA’s double-spacecraft precision formation flying mission, Proba-3, is due to be launched from India on 4 December. The spacecraft pair will employ a set of positioning technologies to keep formation in space and this image shows the most precise: a laser shone from one platform to a retroreflector on the other. The reflected laser beam will provide positioning precision down to a single millimetre.
This infrared view of the reflected laser beam was acquired during on-ground calibration testing performed by ESA, MDA and Centre Spatial de Liège personnel which took place at Redwire Space in Kruibeke, Belgium, back in February.
The goal of the mission is to achieve artificial solar eclipses on demand, as Proba-3’s Occulter spacecraft casting a precisely-controlled shadow onto its Coronagraph spacecraft for six hours at time. To maintain the position of a shadow just 8 cm across on the Coronagraph satellite from the Occulter satellite around 150 m away, the two satellites rely on multiple sensors, including inter-satellite radio links, Global Navigation Satellite System receivers, visual imaging of LEDs and – for the most precise positioning at closest range – a laser metrology (or ‘measurement of measurement’) system.
The laser is seen being fired from the Occulter spacecraft towards the Coronagraph’s retroreflector, designed to reflect it back in precisely the same direction it originated from. In addition a set of Shadow Position Sensors located around the coronagraph aperture will ensure the shadow remains in the correct position.
This mission is being put together for ESA by a consortium led by Spain’s SENER, with participation by more than 29 companies from 14 countries. The Proba-3 platforms have been designed by Airbus Defence and Space in Spain and satellite integration by Redwire in Belgium. GMV in Spain is responsible for Proba-3’s formation flying subsystem while its main coronagraph instrument comes from Belgium’s Centre Spatial de Liège, CSL.
Proba-3 is due to be launched via PSLV-XL launcher by the Indian Space Research Organisation, ISRO. Follow the latest news from the Proba-3 team on the mission blog.

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".
