An abandoned shopping trolley in the backstreets of Thebarton, making wavy shadow lines on the corrugated iron wall.
CSX's Gauley Trolley rumbles across a churning Loop Creek, running on trackage rights over the Kanawha River Railroad. In a few minutes, after lining the switch, this train will shove down the Vaco Branch to the right, completing its run to Alloy through a couple remote miles of neat railroad.
A bunch of green plastic Woolworth Supermarket trolley huddling in a random corner, hiding from the Trolley Collector, who is coming to herd them back to the trolley bay.
A digital painting of a trolley from my tour to Jim Thorpe, PA last summer. (Best in large) HSS!
On/Off - Thank you very much for visiting and commenting! Really appreciated!
Tel Sisyphe poussant son rocher jusqu'au sommet avant de recommencer, ce livreur pousse son chariot de colis (pluri)quotidien avant de certainement recommencer demain...
Mais s'agit-il de bonheur ?
Car si Sisyphe est heureux de pousser son rocher, l'aliénation par le travail dans le contexte de nos sociétés ternit souvent l'amour du travail bien fait...
Seems to be a mix of trolley car designs in Budapest, even along the Jane Haining Rakpart--along the Pest riverfront downstream of the Chain Bridge. It reminds me of the streetcars in New Orleans.
This abandoned tunnel is one of the hidden wonders of Fairmount Park Philadelphia. Built for the Fairmount Park trolley near Chamounix Mansion it doesn't have a name but the architecture is lovely.
On the train from Tangier to Fes, refreshments were served by a man who walked up and down the corridor with a trolley. But for most of the time he lurked at the end of the car with his mobile phone and sold snacks to passing passengers.

Some Coles supermarket trolleys out in the rain at a shopping centre in Brisbane. I was there for a week in October-November and the rain stopped after the second day and the weather was great after that.
A restored and running Los Angeles Railway "Yellow Car" from the 1940s at the Orange Empire Railway Museum in Perris, CA.
Another large Italian 6 day tour. Eventful to say the least.

Baggage trolleys at the entrance of the Kewsick Train Station, with their shadows from the low evening sun.
A shot for two shopping trolley's, resting on their side in the river Medway. Taken this morning on my New Years Day walk to let the new year in. Shot on Leica X, and processed in Lightroom.
Jolley Trolley passengers bask in the glow,
Sunlight streams through windows in a golden flow,
Laughter and chatter on this ride so bright,
Daytime journeys gleam with pure delight.
Artwork by Abigail Fallis. Sponsored by a large supermarket chain the work represents the DNA double helix structure. Part of 'The Line' series of sculptures, roughly following the route of the Greenwich Meridian between The Olympic Park in Stratford to the O2 Arena on the Greenwich Peninsula.
Sinar F, Fujinon 135mm f5.6, Kodak Aerocolor 2460, 4x5.
This image marks several first for me. This is my very first exposure on 4x5 large format, my very first sheet loaded in a film holder, and the first time developing C-41 at home. Phew. I had 2 sheets come out pretty well, and two that are super dense - my own fault for mis-exposures.
This is an old trolley line near one of my favorite spots to take pictures some 25 years ago near a an abandoned (and now completely gone) amusement park, Only the concrete infrastructure of this old trolley line remains here, now overgrown with forest.
A lot of folks don't seem to care for the color cast this Aerocolor 2460 film (aka Santacolor) has - but I kind of dig it. Cool with magenta-leaning shadows. Got the super-shaded deep, dark tones of these woods quite nice I think. It's a look, for sure.
My Father in Law, waiting for us to meet him and go for a train ride at the National Capital Trolley Museum in Colesville, MD.. I think some people though he was a museum prop, he looks like he is the train conductor. I love the way he is dressed .. : )
Revisit of an image taken 50 years that's benefitted from a tweak in the virtual darkroom.
Class 86 electric 86012 is captured making friends with the platform trolleys at Liverpool Lime St station, while it waits on departure time with a service to London.
The TOPS numbering system was being introduced at the time and the BR fleet was in the process of receiving a number based upon the 2-digit class, followed by a 3-digit individual unit number. My notes state that the pre-TOPS number of this one was E3122.
Interestingly enough my notes also state that this was a Pullman working, although I haven't yet been able to find other evidence that this was the case. Maybe what I read as a 1A38 headcode provides a clue? Judging by the shadows, the shot was taken mid-morning.
I was traveling on a week-long London Midland Region Rover at the time, but lack of funds meant film usage was limited to a couple of transparency reels for the whole week. A shame in retrospect given the richness of the railway scene back then.
Update: Further research shows that, at the time, the 'Liverpool Pullman' had a scheduled departure from London Euston at 7.45am, with a 10.24am arrival in Lime St. The Pullman coaches sound plausible then, with 86012 attached after arrival to possibly work the empty coaching stock to Allerton for storage until the evening 6.00pm Pullman departure back to London. It seems the train never really caught the imagination of the travelling public however and the service was stopped later in the 1970s to be replaced by one with the usual Mk2 AC coaching stock.
