Yesterday’s removal of an urban homestead in South Seattle. 85,000 lbs. of material was removed as well as approximately 30 vehicles. The homestead has been in place for almost two years. I just sketched this encampment the day before. #usk #uskseattle #urbansketchers #inksketching #inksketch #seattledot #seattle #seattlepolice

55010 “THE KING’S OWN SCOTTISH BORDERER” stands at York on 14 January 1980 displaying on its nose, evidence of wintry weather somewhere south of the city.

A debriefing is taking place on the platform or maybe just catching up with the crack.

Red deer (Cervus elaphus) stag, Bradgate Park, Leicestershire.

After taking a short hike and bagging a shot down below along the tracks, I was walking back to my car and I looked up the hillside from the curves and thought maybe there would be a shot from up there. Knowing a second south bound was on the way along Union Pacific's Black Butte Sub, I decided to take the gamble on up the steep hillside cliff and hope a shot would turn out somewhere. Luckily it was only about a 10 minute climb and giving off quite the view. Dorris, California

Nice looking Union Pacific locomotive. The UP power roster notes that it was delivered in mid 2007. GE C45AC-CTE 4400 horsepower

The 40-car train easily fits in to one shot from one of the many bridges on the West side of Creston.

Several shots blended - watching a spider crawl up the web under the Queen Anne's Lace flower. I think it's a sac spider.

Day old bread with the UP 2661 East at Pump House on the UP Kansas Sub. I wish the real fall would show up it was summer hot again yesterday.

UP 9774 West at MP 24.5 on the UP Kansas Sub earlier this evening as the sun was going down behind the massive smoke bank to the west. I was already headed home when I saw this thing light up and knew that it was a rebuild so I decided to chance the bad light. It was still shootable light at this point, but about 10 minutes later it was washed out crap.

OMR?

Union Pacific SD70ACe 4141, painted to honor President George H.W. Bush, stands proudly displayed on Union Pacific's 'Home Plate' trackage in downtown Omaha, Nebraska in advance of the 2019 College World Series (which is held across the street at T.D. Ameritrade Stadium). Following his distinguished military career during World War II President Bush '41' would play in the first and second College World Series (1947 and 1948) as a first basemen for Yale University. The display of 4141 began on June 12th 2019, on what would have been President Bush's 95th Birthday.

With talk of 4141's eventual donation to the Bush 41 Presidential Library and Museum in College Station Texas, will this be 4141's last public display under UP ownership? Time will tell.

The hump at UP's Englewood Yard is unique in that the crest spans a main line, in this case the two main tracks of the former HB&T East Belt.

Having just finished shoving a cut over the hump, this hump set awaits instructions before heading to pick up its next cut. In the distance, a yard transfer out of UP's Settegast Yard has just cleared below as it rolls south.
