Big (Boy) news from Cheyenne...

On May 2nd, 2019 the City of Cheyenne was witness to a Big Boy under steam and moving under its own power for the first time in 60 years. Having made several back and forth moves in Cheyenne yard (both on May 1st and 2nd) the real 'trial run' began as 4014 shoved east onto main 3 at W508. Getting a signal at 508 the '4000' is seen moving west into Cheyenne with diesel 8937 on the rear of the support train consist. This history making trial run will ultimately see the 4014 run south to Greeley, CO.

Extra east in full concert through Hammond,WI per date.

So here is the set up of last nights picture for those who are curious.

UP 836 in shambles Omaha 1969. Shame on the mess.

Got a little closer to this great horned owl. He was definitely checking me out and i couldn't help but take about 200 shots of this guy as they are hard to find. They blend in so well.

Amazing detail to these stamen

The waterfall

at Cassiobury Park, Watford

And I'll rise up

I'll rise like the day

I'll rise up

I'll rise unafraid

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousand times again

And I'll rise up

High like the waves

I'll rise up

In spite of the ache

I'll rise up

And I'll do it a thousands times again

For you

A reflection of a lift going up in a building near tower bridge. I am not entiley convinced about this one yet. Any comments welcome?

Been watching this Baby Mallard Duck Growing up.

Taken at the Shreveport Water Works Museum, a National Historic Landmark.

UP GP60 1038 destroys another plow line as it passes through Rollo, IL. This was probably the most intense of the plow lines it hit on its run. Probably the biggest I've caught on camera so far.

It's candy ;)

Delicious candy, at that!

The white is bright on purpose. I wanted a decent contrast between orange-white-orange.

Taken today along with some other candy photos but those can wait.

reached explore #16!

UP 6377 East rolls through the early morning fog at Pump House on the UP Kansas Sub.

It was completely socked in where I was standing, it was not where the drone was.

As clouds meander across the plains, a trio of SD40Ns, led by snoot 1598, wrap up their day's work in Eaton, Colorado. Soon the 40s will be humming along at track speed headed home to La Salle.

Hamburg - Moments

Climbing up the Navajo Trail after a long morning down in the canyon. Got a little cloudy as we ascended these switchbacks, to our relief, otherwise the high sun would have turned this bit of trail into a big dutch oven with the high red walls to either side.

Chinese water deer

A shot from the beginning of the safari in Namibia to remind us all of the diversity of the country. Walvis Bay by the Atlantic Ocean is teeming with wild flamingos. So many formations of them and then one or two of them makes a dramatic move.

A reminder that all of my images are copyrighted and are not for your use in any way unless you contact me.

I want to thank everyone who has viewed this and other pictures! A big THANK YOU for looking at what I saw along the way while on safari. I'll return the favor as soon as I can but may be a little slower than usual.

UP 5357 moves eastbound through Dome AZ. having made it's way around the Gila Mountains in the backround.

I have been watching this Barred Owl grow up over the past few months.
