Tempe, AZ
After hiking Hayden Butte in downtown Tempe, AZ, we were approaching the trailhead when I noticed this sign. The backdrop of this image is a high-rise that sits along the Salt River.
DC2206, LQ3122 and LZ3103 drag 8958N loaded export grain across the Cooks River at Tempe, bound for Inner Harbour. Due to a restriction on the ex narrow gauge West Australian wagons, the train must run to the port via Sydney.
Light rail line from Phoenix to Tempe.
In another year and a half Tucson will have its own light rail .. well the frist 4 miles...
We made a visit to Tempe Town Lake in Tempe, AZ over the weekend. Several bridges span the lake providing some interesting views through the arches. Jasper seemed to be into it (though it would have been better with a few toys along 😉)
There are an assortment of interesting bridges spanning Tempe Town Lake, adjacent to the Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. The lake is man-made, resulting from damning the Salt River which flows through the Phoenix metro area. The ASU rowing team can often be seen practicing on the lake and the lakefront offers a park-like setting for biking, running or just enjoying the scenery.
G515, RL304 and 869 slowly ease over the Cooks River with 1213N freight from Port Botany.
This train is operated by P&O Trans Australia, normally from Port Botany to Narromine via Orange and Dubbo (typically running as train 1811N). Today the train is only operating as far as Goulburn (typically to drop off/pick up locomotives or wagons at the workshops), using the "old" 1813 path (P&O used to run a second train to the west, although this contract has been taken up by IRA at the time of writing).
Due to trackwork on the main south line, all freight is being diverted via Wollongong. This meant that 1213N departed Port Botany passed Marrickville Junction, reversed the train on the triangle at Chullora to return to Marrickville Junction to access the down Illawarra Lines. At Wollongong, the train will climb the steep grades to Robertson and Moss Vale before continuing on to Goulburn. To access Narromine, this train will run south to Cootamundra West before heading north to Parkes via Stockinbingal. What a trip!
G515 is no stranger to Parkes, as I last shot it approaching Goobang Junction with a loaded ore train.
Veteran ALCo 4463 has seen better days, seen here passing through Tempe with T251 container trip train from Cooks River to Minto. Due to trackwork, this train is running in push-pull configuration with 4703 and 4461 on the rear.
