A late night train at the stop Colosseo, Rome.
I've got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes, oh-oh
When the whistle blows, I've gotta go
Lordy, lordy, I think I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues.

We have a red train and a blue train. I love the blue train, it's like a toy train and sounds like it too.
The Brocken is a hill in the north of Germany. Because of the location in the North German lowlands, there is a special climate. So in winter, when the sun is shining, it’s an amazing place for tourists. You can ride with the steam train in 90 minutes from Wernigerode up on the top of the Brocken. Also the ride on the train through the landscape is spectacular.
Down around the corner, half a mile from here
See them long trains run, and you watch them disappear
Without love, where would you be now
Without love.....

Just when I though it couldn't get any more bizarre, a second mixed train drew up alongside the first. It had two freight cars to be unloaded, and so the scene became just that little bit more chaotic, and exotic. An army of men descended on the right said of the train and they stacked the freight against the walls.

Normally run as a small train ride through the Mail Rail tunnels, part of the network has been converted to allow maintenance of these trains. As we can see in the distance the tracks have been raised allowing access to the underside of the trains.
The Mail Rail tunnels were used to transport mail all around London on a network of automated underground electric trains. It opened in 1927, and only ceased service in 2003.

A view from the Nana BTS station. The BTS is an elevated train transit system in Bangkok and is not to be confused with the Bangtan Boys, South Korean popular boy band also known as BTS! I might add that it's a cheap and excellent way to get around this city known for it's horrendous traffic jams.

Too habituated to my SLR Nikon....
This Kodak brings a poetic shift to my recent photos...

Train Cemetery - Uyuni
In 1872 began the construction of the railway from Antofagasta to Bolivia, the first railway line in the country. It was used to transport raw materials such as sodium nitrate and other salts, but also metals such as copper, silver, and gold, from inland mines to port cities on the Pacific Ocean. When the railway reached Uyuni at the end of the 19th century, a railway depot was built in the town. Uyuni then became an important railway junction. Around the 1940s, the local industry collapsed and most of the precious metal mines were abandoned. As a result, the locomotives and railcars were no longer needed, were shut down and left abandoned.
There is a total of around 100 locomotives and carriages in the railway graveyard, the oldest of which date from the late 19th century.
Cementerio de Trenes - Uyuni
En 1872 se inició la construcción del Ferrocarril de Antofagasta a Bolivia, la primera línea férrea de Bolivia. Se utilizaba para transportar materias primas como el nitrato de sodio y otras sales, pero también metales como el cobre, la plata y el oro, desde las minas del interior hasta las ciudades portuarias del Océano Pacífico. Cuando la vía férrea llegó a Uyuni a finales del siglo XIX se construyó un depósito ferroviario en el pueblo. Uyuni se convirtió en ese entonces en un importante nudo ferroviario. Alrededor de la década de 1940, la industria local colapsó y la mayoría de las minas de metales preciosos fueron abandonadas. Como resultado, la mayoría de las locomotoras y vagones ya no fueron necesarios, se apagaron y se dejaron en abandono.
Hay un total de alrededor de 100 locomotoras y vagones en el cementerio ferroviario, los más antiguos de los cuales datan de finales del siglo XIX.

Never will again…” Mystery Train
Once the train completes work at Yulee and Fernandina Beach, it'll return to Waycross in the late afternoon as the A773.
In the foreground is old US Route 17, used at the time (and now) as a fishing pier. Hiding behind leader 3136 is the bridge tender's cabin. As an interesting operating note, this was a "one-manpower" bridge. Opening it for river traffic entailed walking to the center of the span, inserting a long wrench-like tool into a gear in the deck, and walking in circles until the span rotated into the clear. Hell of a way to make a living!
