Other than a few Alco road switchers, the Maine Central's road power was largely EMD until GE sold them ten U18 "baby boats" in 1975. Later, the MEC ended up with two classes of secondhand U-boats. Fourteen U25B’s came from the Rock Island as part of that road’s liquidation, and Guilford shuffled power between its roads, resulting in fourteen D&H U23B’s landing on the MEC roster. Here an example of each of the secondhand classes, in GTI paint, stand in the D&H engine terminal in East Binghamton
Following the Chikuma River Valley southeast of Nagano is the Shinano Railway. Once operated by JR East as a main line between Tokyo and Nagoya, the line was transferred to this private operator in 1997 after the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen. The railway is the main service for local passenger operations in the valley.
Rolling stock is diverse, though gradually becoming modernized. As of early 2024 they operate a small fleet of secondhand former JNR 115 series EMU's. Here a Karuizawa bound local slows for Nishiueda Station as it passes a track worker.

Typical for springtime in the Triple Cities, it's a pallid late afternoon Saturday in April 1993 as an empty coal train accelerates from the green signal at West BD and rounds the curve at Lester Avenue in Johnson City, surrounded by empty buildings that once housed parts of the Endicott-Johnson shoe factory complex.
CP Rail SD40-2 No. 675 in KCS white and GATX SD40-2 No. 7363 send up a collective cloud of blue EMD turbo smoke as they pull west. Canadian Pacific's acquisition of the D&H brought an assortment of Alco/MLW power to the area for the first couple years, before the SD40 model and its derivatives, a mainstay of CP's diesel fleet, took over. Adding color for variety, CP augmented their roster with secondhand units from various sources, running consists in combinations of red, white, blue, yellow and black paint schemes. Red CP Rail lettering over the blank canvas of KCS white especially looked good in its simplicity.
I bought these shoes more than 8 years ago, when they were big for me. As I grew up my foot molded them and I still wear them!

Croatia. Secondhand slide stamped August 1966.
Some other eBay buyer must have gotten the rest of their 1966 Croatia shots. (The photographer was in Croatia again in 1970.)

Stamped November 1976. Not sure where this is, but the sign ("physician") is in German. Some other shots in this lot have been in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. As for the hats, I've looked for them online, to see if they're connected to a group of some kind, but haven't had any luck; they might simply be two sisters who prefer to dress alike.

Lelystad Centrum, 30 March 2022.
The Irisbus Crossway's, new in 2012, in Lelystad are currently in the process of being replaced by secondhand buses from Friesland.
On 28 May 2000, FreightCorp EMDs 42205/ 42208/ 42215/ 42201 are lined up across from the Dry Creek Motive Power Centre (Adelaide), waiting for reactivation by Australia Southern Railroad. Sixteen of the 20 members of the class had recently been purchased by ASR from NSW operator FreightCorp.
42205 would be overhauled and renumbered 2201 before being sent to the Northern Territory to work Alice to Darwin construction trains in 2002.

Mitropa, says Wikipedia, was a catering company known for servicing train cars. This is a daycare center (kinderkrippe) of theirs, and I don't know if the word "Betriebs" (company) means they are the company running it or if it is for the company's employees. Stamped October, 1974.
UPDATE: Comments below indicate that it was run by Mitropa for railroad employees' kids.
