CSX Transportation (that still doesn't sound right) train Sappi-4-23 crosses Martin Stream in Fairfield, ME on 10/23/2022.
In recent years, solid Guilford lash ups have been increasingly hard to get after the great purge of 2020. However, on occasion they do manage to get paired up and that is what happened on this day.
Who knows how much time these units have, but so far Maine has been (luckily) spared from the homogeneous CSX power. Most of the units being sent to Waterville have either been reactivated for use elsewhere on CSX, or have been parted out. So, for now the "old" stuff continues to hold down the assignments.

Laura and I hiked speckled mountain this past saturday. It's a beautiful mountain, and almost completely unpopulated. On the path up, we saw this river below and stopped to sit.
From the series "Forms of Water". I took this in March 2015 not so far from my home (edited 2016).
This is one of the photos from my exhibition "Luminance boréale".
This is one of my favourite landscapes taken to-date. It was captured while spending time with family in the Brecon Beacons. The family is often visiting grandparents who live in Brecon Town. Usually I rise early before sunrise to be back with family before breakfast, but this was captured on one of the rare occasion I found some time to escape late afternoon. The mist was thick across Pen y Fan but I wanted to try and hike the ridge path over by Llyn y fan Fawr lake.
I drove over to the lake and started the climb through the farmyard and over the river Tawe and onto the moor / open access lands of the Brecon Beacon National Park. This is common land and can be freely enjoyed by anyone. I never made it to the lake; it was getting late by the time I arrived, the mist was coming in, and there was just too much to photograph.
This was one of the captures from the day, a beautiful Welsh stream, meandering off the higher open access / common moor and down into the Welsh farms below. This wonderful tree twists across the river, bent double by the winds coming off the Welsh mountains. The mist just completes this wonderful scene.

Wherever the stream, it does flow
Wherever your hopes, they do go
Wherever sweet fate, guides your hand
Travel to that secret land
Where does wait, your sweet love
My hand it does slip in your glove
My arms they hold you very tight
Through the day and all the night
As we share a beautiful dream
Bathing in the flowing stream
Where fate is found, so very sweet
Where your heart and mine will forever meet
Beautiful rainy english lake district, looking down to Ashness Bridge.
Ashness Bridge is a traditional stone-built bridge on the single-track road from the Borrowdale road (B5289) to Watendlath, in the English Lake District, Cumbria. The bridge is at grid reference NY270196, and is known for being a fine viewpoint across Borrowdale towards Skiddaw, including views of Derwent Water nearby. It or its predecessor may have been a packhorse bridge hhconveying packhorse traffic from Watendlath to Keswick.
