What? Sit bumper to bumper with a bunch of petrol heads listening to 5 Live? Or watch the trees and fields flow by in an unending ribbon of nature that would make Constable pack up his easel and go home? Even the glue factory looks good from a train window...

Small Print:
Trains depicted in this film are not to scale and may be smaller than trains in real life.
Do not use the station while the train is in the toilets.
Tracks are now being built in the area south of the Kimball station.
The old tracks were demolished, ballast removed, ducts dug up, and now new underground electrical components and lower ballast are in.
Service to Kimball is set to resume early Monday morning after the 9-day closure to make this work possible.
this shot was taken with a kodak instamatic x-15 that i rigged to shoot 35mm half-frame images. i got around 50 shots from my 24 exp. roll. a bit more light leaks than i imagined considering how well i taped the camera door.....but an experiment is an experiment.
This is a photograph from the Le ChéÃle 'Leixlip 5KM' Road Race, Jog, and Fun Run was held in Leixlip, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Saturday May 4th 2013 at 11:00. This race has steadily grown in stature over the past number of years and now is a well known fixture in the racing calendar in May annually. This was a big aattendance at the race which finished with the last 700 meters on the beautiful new tartan track belonging to Le Cheile AC at the Leixlip Amenities center. As always This was a great race with a great atmosphere. The weather was reasonably good (except for a head wind at a few places on the course). Good race times were reported by many participants. Congratulations to Kevin Roche and all of Le ChéÃle AC for their huge volunteer work that goes into making this race the growing success that it is. As always the post race refreshments were awesome with some fabulous treats available for everyone. This year Lidl and Applegreen were title sponsors with support for prizes from Runworx. There was great support from local Kildare clubs and club of the day must go to Sliabh Buidhe Rovers AC of Ferns in Wexford who brought over 30 athletes up on a club day out for the race. The race was supported by FIT Magazine. Junior races for children aged between 7 - 16 years old took place on the track at 10:30 before the main race at 11:00. The race was AAI Permit Approved with a certified course measurement.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Never get tired of the Mortlach grain elevator. Always think its abandoned, but on other side was an idling semi at the door.
At Kedzie, Train Tracker signs show scheduled terminal departure times as terminal operation here is underway.
Brown Line trains operate only as far north as Kedzie for major track improvement work on the tracks that lead into the Kimball terminal from July 13-22, 2013.

The railroad tracks close to my house a bridge track..playing with textures to create an old photography out of it..
A westbound empty oil meets an eastbound loaded coal train just west of Forest Avenue in Downers Grove.
The tracks disappear into the brush. I remember when you could see all the way to Thelwall from here, shortly before being deafened by neeeeeeeee nooooooorrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!. Twice I came within a few milli seconds of being hit by a freight train and diving off the tracks with my heart pounding out of my chest.
