Sleeping at port of Matane. On the federal pier a half dozen tug boats remain silent as they wait for work. As many people do here in Matane, in the near agonizing boredom of village-wide Covid closures, we park & sit in our cars to watch them roll in the wake of other fishing or ferry boats. The largest of two ferries is presently out of comission...they still can’t seem to find the problem after almost one year now, so the smaller one does the charter Baie Comeau & Godbout, a two hour trip, and also serves as a mega diversion right now...
After picking up intel this morning about a Tug diagrammed for the Dee Marsh steel (thanks Jim!) I returned to Gobowen to try another angle. My 1979 OS Map doesn't show the new bypass, or many of the recent building developments in the town, but it did show a footpath, helpfully still in use, and I took this from the foot crossing just south of the station.
Flat and grey, in contrast to earlier in the week, but I just about eaked something from DBS Tug 60039 passing through the station with the 9.30am Dee Marsh - Margam (6V75) steel train.
While the Tug might be nice, for me, the real star of the show is the elegant Great Western infrastructure on display. The station building was built by the Shrewsbury and Chester Railway between 1846 and 1848 in the Florentine (or Italianate) style with white stucco facing and the turret. The platform awnings were added later by the Great Western Railway and, while not exactly in keeping with the original style, still come with an elegance all their own. Thankfully the station is Grade 2 Listed so it should be around for a while yet (info courtesy of Wikipedia).

A tug boat makes its way up the Lower Pitt River. Golden ears peak , in Maple Ridge is in the background.
A pair of tugs gather at the breakwater lighthouse on Lake Michigan assisting shipping in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
These two busy tugs are some of the most well taken care of old tugs you might run into. If you are in Seattle these two are always running around moving something

As can be seen there were few clouds in the sky, but typically one was there when the train passed and the near trees and train side were plunged into shadow.
Bandit and I were playing Tug of War and I got out my cell phone for this shot. I do throw the rope for him after I win.
Not so long ago this area was undisturbed. Wonder what migrating seabirds make of it?

60062 joins the South Wales main line at Margam Moors Junction in the backdrop of Tata steel works in Port Talbot. This is the 6B13 05:00 Robeston Sidings to Westerleigh Murco oil train, which was pretty much a daily working, Mondays through to Saturdays, but that has changed in recent times.

Even on multi shot , because the Robin was tugging away,(moving) he appears slightly out of focus. whereas the tree stump is perfect

With debate ongoing over the future of the 59/2s with the takeover of Mendip stone traffic by Freightliner approaching, there has been an influx of Class 60s of late.

This is how they keep the ship in the channel, one tug at the stern and one or two at the side of the ship, it's something to watch.

The main target for Wednesday was the Kirkby Thore - Tees Dock gypsum empties.
The reason for this was the allocation of a Class 60 for the duration of the Autumn "leaf fall" season as per last year.
In 2018 I only managed one shot of a Tug heading this working and that was in the dull so this was the number one priority for me.
We knew from info' obtained the previous day that a 60 was a possibility and an early TOPS list confirmed it.
The WTT path of this train (10.44 ex Newbiggin) makes photting it a difficult task as for the majority of its journey on the S&C it is heading almost directly into the sun (should it be out) so the news that the 60 was running in a VAR path with a 12.44 departure from the plant was most welcome, giving us a good few options.
After giving Ais Gill some consideration we plumped for Garsdale and with the forecast few fluffy clouds keeping away from the sun I'd say we had a result.

A full hull model for display of a american style harbour tug. The model contains lots of details.
storage space on the front and rear deck. A slidingdoor to enter the detailed wheelhouse which also has a detachable roof for easy access.
There is a achor winch located at the bow and yellow engine underneath the funnel. Yellow so it must be a Caterpilar engine.
To be able to use this model in my harbour lay-out I made the underwatership in two pieces. you can easily lift off the the top part and put it in any lay-out.
