A switcher engine working DeKalb, IL, is extremely rare, so a shot of UP 1391 was in order on 4-27-11 as it shuffled around a work train in the siding tracks on the east side of town.

View from the main train station building. More or less 160 studs on the left there will be the engine shed.

The Christmas lights switch on Manchester.

UP 9991, ex-WP 3557 GP40-2, switches near the Rosboro Lumber mill in Springfield, Oregon. Taken from the next road crossing about a half mile east of the location with my Series E 70-210 f/4 zoom at 210mm. Had to take the picture because the sun hasn't been out for a while!

Happy New Year! Here is my Switch Hwahui modeling a new hoodie that will be available at my Etsy shop on Jan 15 along with other new items for multiple doll sizes.

 

Also a reminder that I am currently accepting orders for SD17 or SD13 boys so feel free to message me at my shop (cyristinecreations.etsy.com)

Two photos of the same chair, shot from different perspectives, look extremely different.

 

Some of the biggest arguments I've had in life are also some of the silliest. And in hindsight both us were right. We just saw things differently.

Train of the Day

This US Army switcher was transferred from the Aberdeen Proving Grounds to the Navy Base at Indian Head, MD, seen here at the CSX interchange at White Plains, MD. Summer 1999.

When I glanced at this table, the light happened to be hitting my Kindle and Switch joycons just right, so I couldn't resist a quick shot with my new phone camera (which itself is working out quite well).

 

コタツのほうにふと見たらこんな魅力的な光があったので、最近購入したスマホのカメラで撮影してみました。なかなかのものだと思います。

I found this derelict building while visiting Derby's Format 15 photography festival (UK); it was being used as an exhibition space. Lots of personal photo opportunities & I'll probably go back towards the end of the festival...

Shuttle Buses Optare Solo M8570SR YJ25 EEF seen in Largs running the town service 40.

Kendallville Terminal Railway's switcher and caboose (ex-Southern? Comments welcome) hang out at the Kraft plant in Kendallville, Indiana.

Two axle diesel switcher at Alfarelos, Portugal, October 10, 1966. I have no information about this locomotive.

A pair of BNSF units maneuver at the west end of the yard in Ashtabula on the Erie West Subdivision of CSX. The units were about to back onto their train. The type G signals and the signal bridge upon which they are mounted have since been removed. (Scanned from a slide)

A pair of EMD end-cab switchers owned by the Luzerne & Susquehanna are seen pulling tank cars from the Reading & Northern interchange at Pittston to an unloading facility at Avoca. Out of all the rail operations in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area, the L&S is by far the hardest to track down and requires some luck and good timing. They are actually operating on Reading & Northern rails here, on what was once the Lehigh Valley's main line between Buffalo and points east.

This really weird formation caught my eye...first it was going to the right then it switched, Lol to the left....I'm sure there is some logical scientific answer but I call it, switch.

WM 734 storms upgrade at Switch Nine, where the Western Maryland track switches over to the old Cumberland and Pennsylvania for the trip to Frostburg.

Switch [Ryun:R]

The Benicia yard locomotives, this time consisting of GP15-1 No. 623, GP38-2 No. 718, and GP40-2 No. 1372, help switch boxcars at the beer distribution facility in Benicia, CA on the YOZ60R yard job.

The Köf III pulls an empty out of the Bauknecht warehouse. Due to the tight curve radius they can only take one car at a time down this segment of the spur.

Switchers from EMD, FM and ALCo congregate around the turntable at Milwaukee Road's Nahant Yard in Davenport, IA. The Dri-Line S3's are in storage with their roles taken over by hand-me-down EMD's from the MILW and BN.

Fully Charged Live 2021 (aka Fully Charged Outside) was the latest event to be held at the Farnborough International site in Farnborough, Hants. The three-day event hosted a huge selection of electric vehicles including two PSV products. There was also an internal Park & Ride bus service operating using 8 buses over the course of the event with the addition of an occasional trip to Farnborough (Main) railway station.

 

I visited on the overcast Saturday and returned on the sunny Sunday. For the record, buses seen were:
