The Greenville and Western Railroad is a 12.5 mile long short line railroad that runs between a CSX interchange in Pelzer, SC, to Belton, SC, where they interchange with the Pickens railroad. The railroad's locomotive roster consists of 4 elderly EMD motors. Two GP9's and two GP30 type locomotives are employed as power for the shortline. This day we were quite fortunate to catch their short hood forward GP9 High-hood on the point of the southbound CSX Interchange-Belton/Pickens Interchange train. GRLW 3752 is a GP9 that was originally built for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in July of 1957. This locomotive is one of the rare examples of a first generation diesel engine out running in revenue freight service. The 65 year career (and counting) of this locomotive is a testament to the build quality of early electro motive diesel locomotive. The trailing GP30 was a 1962 build for the Santa Fe Railroad. The GP30 is arguably more scarce than the GP9, and both engines together in the great Greenville and Western paint make for a great photograph. The sun was even out to boot!
Thanks for looking and enjoy!
This 1971 bridge carries US 17 across the Intracoastal Waterway, between the Grand Strand and the mainland of South Carolina. I can't say I hate this bridge, especially since the SCDOT allowed the old swing bridge (where this shot was taken) to remain in place. The haunched center span gives it some character, the supports have a distinctive shape to them, and the light blue paint (which is free of rust) blends in nicely with the sky. I used the bridge to cross over to North Myrtle Beach.
Chesnee, South Carolina is experiencing visible decline due to a mix of economic hardship, population loss, and aging infrastructure. The town has struggled to replace jobs lost from past industries, leading to limited employment opportunities and reduced income levels. Younger residents often move away for better prospects, leaving behind an aging population with fewer resources. Vacant homes and underused buildings contribute to a sense of neglect. Public investment remains low, and amenities are limited, making the area less attractive to newcomers. These combined factors have gradually eroded the town’s vitality, leaving it in a persistent state of stagnation and decay. Photographed with a Canon AE-1, 35mm f/3.5 SC lens on Ilford FP4+ (rated at 100 ISO) and developed in HP-110 1+63. Scanned using VueScan and Epson 4870 scanner.

E finalmente a foto da ultima cachoeira. Tendo 125m de altura, sua beleza encanta os olhos de quem chega até lá. É quase impossível repassar a sensação de estar embaixo de uma beleza tão grande. Não é por acaso que seu nome é "Salto Grande".
E melhor ainda estar MUITO bem acompanhado!!!

Piratuba é conhecida em todo país e por ser o principal pólo turístico do Oeste Catarinense. O município se destaca por possuir uma rede hoteleira qualificada, com mais de dois mil leitos e um parque termal amplo e moderno, que oferece lazer e descanso em qualquer estação. A história de Piratuba iniciou em 1910, quando a Estrada de Ferro, São Paulo – Rio Grande do Sul foi construída. A empresa Brasil Railway, responsável pela obra, instalou um acampamento para seus operários nas margens do Rio do Peixe. O núcleo se chamava, Vila do Rio do Peixe. Em 18 de fevereiro de 1949, surgiu o município, que naquela data foi emancipado. O turismo iniciou sua história em Piratuba em 1964. A PETROBRAS, que estava em busca de petróleo, perfurou um poço com 2.271,30 metros de profundidade. Ao invés do “ouro preto”, a empresa acabou descobrindo um lençol de águas sulfurosas de 38,6°, a 674 metros. Em 1975 a Companhia Hidromineral foi constituída. Com a instalação do parque termal, Piratuba entrou na rota dos principais destinos turísticos do sul do Brasil. Hoje, o município é consolidado no turismo, recebendo mais 350 mil turistas por ano.

In years past I have taken many photos of the pier. However, in 2016 Hurricane Matthew wiped out over 50% of its length. A new one is scheduled to replace it, but when that will take place...who knows?
