The Dartford Crossing on the River Thames seen from 14,000 feet up aboard my Norwegian Airlines Boeing 737 Flight to Oslo
Here the QEII suspension bridge spans the river - mostly taking the Southbound traffic across, whilst unseen, the original double bore tunnels service those going Northbound
In the event of high winds or traffic issues the Tunnels usually revert to their original configuration of North and South
A second crossing downstream is now on the cards and is badly needed as although the crossing here was automated recently the huge amount of traffic using it often causes huge jams on both approaches

Actually a dark and dirty stairway paired with flashy lights and a green handrail all the way up and down. Almost every Berlin-Visitor has been there ;)

Royal Highland Fusilier opens up with one of its Napier Deltic power units as it pulls away from the stop board at Forge Farm crossing alongside the London to Uckfield mainline.
Well...we are at 11 days and counting of rain here in NE Kansas and looking at the next 5 day forecast it doesn't look like it's getting any better either. Clouds and rain. Rain and clouds. Rinse. Repeat.
Let's take a time travel trip back to when the sun still shined here in Kansas. All the way back to May 13th when an SD70ACe led intermodal train was making its way west on the UP Kansas Sub about ready to knock down the signals at the east end of Loring.
I didn't shoot too much over on Beaumont Pass while I lived in SoCal for all of about 15 months. The train density just wasn't as attractive as it was over on Cajon Pass.
But here we have a UP C40-8W leading an international stack train through all the curves and orange groves as it climbs up the pass.
Another Provia 100F shot.
UP 8495 leading a lengthy freight through Cal Jct heading for Blair with 2 other freights following close behind.

Phía sau đôi mắt anh em không tồn tại ..- *Nothing in your eyes
Những thứ bất ngờ chờ trc' cuộc sống còn rất nhiều. Cũng như cái cách mà tôi đến gần anh vậy..(:
Làm sao có thể cho phép đc những thứ trẻ con, ảo tưởng trong tôi ngày một lớn lên chứ??
Với tôi vậy là đủ r`.
Cứ thương thêm chút, nhớ thêm chút, mong thêm chút..r` thì tôi sẽ tự mình rời xa anh.

EMD Tier IV UP 3044 leads a mixed manifest train around the long curve coming into Loring this morning. If you only get a chance to shoot one train in the morning then you better make it a good one.
Just a tad bit too much tree on the lead truck than I would like, but maybe that tree will get removed soon too. Who knows. We’re not in a National Forest, yet.
These Tier IV’s are starting to get the UP piss brick treatment. Look at the roof of this unit and you will see just how dirty they are starting to get. It won’t be long and they will look like the EMD SD70M second out. Hot garbage.
UP 8378 in DPU mode helps brake a heavy and slow moving coal train down Cajon pass and across Drawbar Flats in the early morning mists.
A business train returns to the Omaha area after a trip south. The 103 year old 'Shoshone' is visible 3 cars back, second oldest in the Union Pacific fleet. It's always good to see it out and about.

Looking the other way at flag barn with the UP 7804 East coming up to the intermediate signal at 24.5.
Mount Olympus Trail to Olympus summit; Mount Olympus Wilderness, Utah; August 2017
The entire hike up Olympus is steep, but the final stretch requires the use of hands. It's very steep, but I think photos make it look more intense than it is.
Medanak, first reversing station of the Khyber Pass Railway. The line continued on the upper left to the next reverse at Changhi and further on to the Afghan border at Torkham where it stopped just a few meters from the border line. The railway was opened in 1925 to Landi Kotal and 1926 to the border - this later section with two reversing stations was already closed in 1932 after only 6 years of use. The Peshawar to Landi Kotal line remained open for regular trafic with one train a week until 1982 and for special trains between 1993 and 2007. It is closed since due to severe washout. Essential reading about this line is 'Permanent way through the Khyber' written by the line's building engineer Victor Bayley. February 1997

This cheetah shot is just the way I shot it and is NOT a crop.
Shot at about 300-350mm. Yes we were close.

(Taken between Kathleen Edwards' and Aimee Mann's sets at Seattle's Summer Nights concerts which have moved to South Lake Union Park this year. I've never seen so many sponsors for an event and Aimee sarcastically ticked them all off before playing.)
Taken at Unit Nine in Wolverton while friend Dain did the opening set of a DnB evening at the venue. Haven't been to a nightclub/venue like this in years!
UP 2619 leads a northbound manifest freight past the south switch at Springfield Junction. The track to the right gave northbound trains access to the Siskiyou Line, but is no longer used. Now all trains entering the line originate at the Eugene yard and are routed via the north switch. One of the many SP trestles over the Willamette River is in the background.
