Setting sun on the remaining trees discloses what the powers call progress. This is clearing for a road that borders a large park in the city of Wasilla, Alaska. The clearing cuts off a number of trails where I walked the dogs and was amazed that we had such a place in a densely populated area. Soon to be a paved road with traffic zooming by and new housing developments. The price for progress in a rapidly growing area. I guess we should enjoy what we have while we can as there is no going back. Sorry to rant and thanks for your visit!

This art piece quite surprised and amused me after I was able to process the whole image in my head!!!! I couldn’t find the description for it, but I think it describes the human nature and its consequences very very nicely!!
Enjoy your week friends, thank you for your visit :))
Le MCBA est une structure monolithique trouée de puits de lumière verticaux. Cela permet une généreuse diffusion de lumière dans les grands espaces dédiés au cheminement entre les étages et les salles d'exposition.

One of my absolute favorite things about he RF&P is the timelessness of some of the scenes. While the power may have changed over the years, many of the locations have not. Doswell, Virginia is one such place, where a real deal RF&P signal mast, for now, governs this stretch of railroad. Unfortunately, like most cool things on the railroad, time marches on. Today many of us in the Old Dominion received word that CSX crews brought in its replacement, which will forever change this scene. It's tough to accept the things you don't want to, and while we all know things change, it doesn't mean we always want them to.
Two months on and some enthusiastic effort has advanced the Acharacle Men's Shed somewhat. The building is now more-or-less secure, with locking doors, some added windows, and the worst of the holes in the roof weatherproofed. A multi fuel generator has been donated, as well as a cast iron log burning stove. Donations are rolling in to the GoFundMe, whilst trees and vegetation have been cut back. The membership list has bloomed, even to include Heather, who for the purposes of membership identifies as a Man and contributes freshly made sponge cakes and tea to enjoy over a chat sat outside in the rare sunshine.

"Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning." -Benjamin Franklin
Work continues on the Norfolk Southern Pittsburgh Line installing Positive Train Control equipment, including new signal bridges at control points like the one here at Duncannon. Train 60N is rolling west under the new and old with the Norfolk and Western heritage unit leading a train of Russian steel slabs.
Work is still progressing west, with new equipment showing up periodically for installation and the technology is already in use on the nearby Lurgan Branch. The time of the classic Pennsylvania Railroad position light signal is rapidly winding down.
While most railroads are on a cost cutting spree the Reading & Northern is doing just the opposite by upgrading track & signals, buying more motive power & above all hiring more dedicated people to move the freight. Case in point, a new siding & control point (Muller) is being installed near Hamburg which will connect with an existing siding & run all the way to Port Clinton.
Snapshot of detail from a collage in progress (dust and all), belonging to the series "Oldemor Hund" (Great Grandmother Dog). The collage elements were cut from found images, then assembled and mounted (after this snapshot was taken), portrait format, on an A4-sized sheet of watercolour paper. Collage no. 3/2018.

Happy Tuesday!
Every advancement has its price tag. And nobody rides for free.
