Now used only for storage, this tunnel once formed part of the Mail Rail network. In the 1970's workers of the Mail Rail had their Christmas parties down in these tunnels, and the whole family was welcome. This tunnel was set up for Christmas train rides and on the walls are painted images of the 12 days of Christmas. The first one here is the Partridge in a Pear Tree ..
The Mail Rail tunnels were used to transport mail all around London on a network of automated underground electric trains. It opened in 1927, and only ceased service in 2003.
With the impending doom of the EMD fleet on the B&P, we took advantage of two beautiful days to mop up on some shots. GEXR 3394 leads a storage train to south in the late evening!
The storage facility at Blyth harbour. Once used for storage for materials for the Alcan smelter. Don't know if they are used for anything now as the smelter is closed.
On Saturday the WSOR picked up these Mtys from the CN and dragged them to Madison. Here they are easing into Fitchburg,Wisconsin on the former C&NW to Oregon,Wi for Storage.
Joel 1:17 “The seeds shrivel under their clods; the storehouses are desolate. The grain storage places are destroyed because grain has dried out.”
At least this day (a couple weeks ago) started out without fog. I asked the owner of this farm if the structures were still used. He said there was some corn in the bin and the old corn crib was used for equipment storage.
The Oregon side of the Reedsburg Sub typically sits dormant from roughly November to April due to the only customer being Lycon, who only receives cars during the warmer months of the year. However, there is the occasional storage move that knocks the rust (and snow) off the rails.
In this photo, WAMX 4176 leads an empty crude oil train into Yard Limits just outside of Oregon. The WAMX 4187 and a spacer were on the opposite end of the train.
Upon arriving in Oregon, the crew cut the 4176 away, and run light engine East towards Brooklyn to clear the flangeways of snow and ice. After returning to Oregon, the 4176 was tucked into the pass track. The conductor hopped on the point of the tanks, and he and the engineer on the 4187 shoved the cars towards Brooklyn where they would be stored for a number of months.
An Escanaba & Lake Superior SD9 shoves storage cars up the original E&LS Wells to Channing mainline along the Escanaba River at Groos, Michigan.
Between Groos and Channing, the line is largely out of service except for short sections used for car storage at each end.
In there harsh environments you need to natural resources for a lot of conventional stuff. One of the examples is cool storage room. As it happens there is lakes nearby ground is cool and fresh. Also it is made from rock, so it is perfect for storing.
Here we have the RBMN storage line with a bunch of Norfolk southern engines sitting ready to work when RBMN needs them.
There are now 6 RJs stored on the disused runway at Cranfield with another 3 in and around the hangars.
My last few weeks have been filled with too many working hours. Finally got the chance to go outside with my camera and leave everything behind. Really looking forward to my holiday...
NS SD80mac 7206 leads 35A under the signal bridge at Summerhill, PA which is now just a memory. 21 of 29 SD80macs are now in storage. Happy I was able to catch a pocket of sun here. As soon as the train was coming under the signal bridge, it got cloudy.
I said to myself, "Uh-oh" when I saw the Commercial put together a second dead line of storage locomotives. It seems like there is a space-clearing initiative at the Merriam Park Roundhouse and the units that aren't the best functioning are put out in the yard - makes sense! An interesting array of power is out in the second storage line, too:
MNNR 200
MNNR 318
MNNR 87
MNNR 2002
I had all these cassette tape boxes and saw a box like this on instructables. Well I didnt have the original inserts, but I did have an abundance of pictures. I took xtra pictures of my nephew and made this Jewel/ storage box for my sister. You can use it for all kinds of things, like candy on a coffee table, or a trinket/jewel box, someplace to put the keys in the entry hall....
This is my first attempt so it is kinda rough.
I am going to put a false bottom in to cover the spots from the glue (cont'd)

NS 3399 leads C91 north through West Seneca, NY. The job was called to put 309s train away on the BX line, here they are pulling high of the switch at GJ. The 3399 and 7016 were dead in tow for Elkhart but the engineer was able to get it running for the move.
A sign of the times, I guess- showing the combined effects of "Precision Scheduled Railroading" and the Covid-related downturn in traffic- on Union Pacific in former North Western territory. Light power headed for the Shoreline Subdivision passes just part of the storage line(s) at Butler Yard, just outside Milwaukee. The collection of power here is fairly eclectic, and among other goodies, includes C44-9W 9696, one of the last units in (partial, patched) C&NW paint. In the left distance, searchlights still stand at BJ (Butler Junction) South.
