At the Scheidplatz square is a major interchange of the same name from bus to tram to subway.
Here we are on tram tracks while in the distance one line 12 tram is about to leave (away from me, just to state that).

For switcher Sunday we see 2 former PRR SW's (a 7 and a 9) leading a westbound local on what was PRR's 4 track main through Canton, Ohio in December 1981. It's about to be overtaken by one of the many trailer trains on the 4 track main that was still in place through town. The building to the left was a Fisher Foods warehouse that clearly still provided some box car business. The freight cars are as cool as the power is blue.
Spent part of my Sunday walking through the wonderful beech forest at Ekedalen. This shot is made by 4 portrait photos stitched together to get a wider shot and to make sure at least parts of the tree tops are visible. It was my first visit there, but for sure not the last...
A pair of Delaware-Lackawanna RS3's have finished their switching at Bridge 60 in Scranton, PA and are now headed down the connector to the ex D&H tracks where they'll reverse direction and run to the South Scranton shops where Papa Don is waiting to give some tender loving care.

FEC train 915 brings loaded rock gondolas to the yard in Rockledge, FL for unloading. As a bonus, 915 used an SD40-2 rather than the typical GP40-2.
The gondolas come off of train 336 who originates in Medley and brings loaded rock to City Point near Cocoa, FL overnight on weekdays. 336 carries a few loaded gondolas for this location on the head end of the train. Every morning after 336's arrival, 915 comes to take the gondolas to this location. Typically, a GP40-2 or two are the power for this train but today was a different story. The crew of 915 took the trailing SD40-2, FEC 716, off of 336 along with the gons and used it for the day. They would later run to New Smyrna Beach with traffic for the yard and they would end up swapping engine 716 for 714.

BNSF’s Sandpoint local has finished switching empties for the Pend Oreille Valley Railroad at the east end of the yard in Sandpoint at Boyer, Idaho, on September 26, 2021. As an eastbound BNSF stack train curves by on the main line, the power will soon head west in the yard to pick up interchange from POVA before heading back to Spokane.
switch off, go out, sit down, take a rest and enjoy autumn.

Union Pacific’s Cache Valley Local crosses the Cub River trestle while backing toward their caboose at Presto Plastics in Lewiston, Utah the evening of Aug. 30, 1988. I recall at the time being shocked and dismayed to see a caboose tagged with graffiti. My how times have changed.
