On 29th June 2021, GB Railfreight 66711 'Sense', in the Aggregate Industries' corporate livery, runs round the 6E77 16:43 Arcow Quarry to Hunslet loaded stone at the north end of Blea Moor up goods loop. The Class 66/7 was named on 2nd July 2015 at Aggregate Industries' Bardon Hill quarry. Its name refers to the River Sence, which has its source just north of the quarry. The river ran through a part of the quarry extension area and was to be diverted by the quarry company. The 2002-built loco is already showing signs of corrosion around the window surrounds (double-click to enlarge image to view more).

Semaphore Fly (Poecilobothrus nobilitatus, 7mm), a so-called long-legged fly from a family associated with wet areas, the Dolichopodidae. The adults are typically found wherever there is pond-weed or algae. Larvae are believed to be predatory, developing in damp soil, and adults certainly are, feeding on a range of invertebrates. The male has white tips to the wings.

The semaphore blade shows an approach indication for the main at WSS Chapelle, as the eastbound Southwest Chief approaches from the west.
In a classic Santa Fe scene, the Southwest Chief races through the desert ranch lands of Chapelle, New Mexico. Even in 2020, Chapelle Siding is still protected by pristine AT&SF semaphore signals.
Looming in the distance is Starvation Peak, which was an important landmark for western settlers as they traversed the Santa Fe Trail. Legend has it that "Starvation Peak" got its name after a hostile American Indian tribe drove 36 people to the top of the mesa. Cutoff and surrounded by hostile Indians, those 36 people died of thirst and starvation.

Worcester Shrub Hill and the signals amazingly still standing today. Sadly its character has been changed due to the additional Health and Safety ladders now in place. Though I guess you can't argue with a safer workforce!
In Plaform 1 can be seen a large logo 50 and on the left a class37 on a parcels. Just visible on the other platform is a bit of a Met Camm. Taken in June 1983.
This would today be an impossible shot as it would mean a 'trespass' offence. I must have felt uneasy about staying put as I don't have a departure shot of the class50 unless it is another misplaced or lost shot.

An NYC semaphore serving as a distant signal sits ahead of the IC-NS interlocking in Urbana. This is one of the only semaphore signals left in Illinois, albeit in a fixed position. Despite being a fixed approach signal, it appears to be mostly intact and is only missing it's green and red lenses. Seeing only a couple trains a week, its hard to nab anything going past it but the stars aligned, heads ups were given, and the old NW workhorse was captured making a daylight appearance which is an impressive feat for D41 in and of itself.
