Another one of those track and road units for moving a small amount of freight. This time I got up close and personal with the 10-22mm Canon lens. Fun perspectives.

He walked the tracks all the way to the temporary station. There is a big renovation project happening in Hermaan Park around the Zoo and lake area. From the City of Houston website: After 50 years making memories for countless Houstonians, the Hermann Park train has gotten an update! The construction of the new train ride is to be completed in 2 phases. Phase I expanded the train route to 1.8 miles and introduced the new larger 24 gauge train, accessible to riders with wheel chairs and parents with strollers, to the public. Phase I is complete and was inaugurated in grand style on March 7, 2008. The first public rides began March 8 and cost $2.50.
These tracks used to be visible on the east side of Paulina just north of Wolfram Street until the summer of 2013 when the City repaved Paulina. The tracks used to lead to industries where the Jewel, Pier 1 Imports, and the rest of a strip center now occupy. It does appear as though the Alto Manufacturing Company at 2850 N. Ashland used to receive rail deliveries as well.

Seen at the Liberty Aviation Museum in Port Clinton, Ohio. From the Museum’s description:
“The M3 half-track is an armored personnel carrier that was used extensively by the U.S. Army and its Allies during WW2 … This particular M3 was produced by the White Motor Company of Cleveland, Ohio.
After the War many M3’s continued to see active service with numerous Armed Forces all over the World with some still in use to this day. This particular half-track was operated by the Israeli Defense Force and modified with the addition of a 30 caliber machine gun installed in place of the passenger front window. This M3 saw extensive service with the IDF and was actively involved in numerous combat engagements. It was sold surplus to the current owner who restored it to its original WWII U.S. Army configuration while retaining the IDF installed 30 cal machine gun passenger window mount …
Crew: 1 driver and 12 passengers …
The front roller is designed to keep the vehicle from getting stuck in a ditch or gully or debris by keeping the front end from getting buried. The armor thickness varies from 6-12 mm to protect the crew from small arms fire and shrapnel.

These are freight tracks embedded in the street, not trolley tracks. They are standard gauge, whereas all trolley tracks in Philly are broad gauge. Another clue that these are freight tracks and not trolley tracks is the switch: the point is missing, but if this were trolley tracks, there would be no switch point on this side; only on the other side of the track. (See note above.)

USS Yorktown (CV-10) Aircraft Carrier
Introduced in 1954, the S-2 Tracker was designed to find, follow and if necessary kill enemy submarines. Spanning three decades, the primary purpose of the S-2 was to be a thorn in the side of Soviet submarines. Originally designated the S-2F-1, it didn't take long for e Tracker crews to come up with the nickname STOOF (as in S-2-F).
A fixture on Essex class carriers like USS Yorktown, the S-2 expanded sub hunting to the open ocean in ways land based brethren like the P-3 Orion could not. The S-2 could turn into an offensive weapon, armed with a combination of torpedoes, rockets, mines and depth charges.
