A westbound K train breaks the silence with a 710 symphony thundering out of the Missouri River valley into Nebraska. The elephant style EMD's are a chronological history of the 70-series of sorts.
Yesterday whe let go some balloons up in the air for my dad..
We did this especially for my 2 little nieces.
Thank you for your visit!
An overview of the Home Plate display area. This was one of the moments the crowd was a little sparse; there was usually more folks paying their respects. The locomotive and car 'Council Bluffs' were on display for several days following their use in the President George H.W. Bush funeral train.
If you spy in the background, the CN Council Bluffs local is barely visible in the trees, returning from their work in North Omaha.
UP train MALPR (Altoona-Proviso) makes its way across the south side of Milwaukee, WI at 20th Street. 11/23/2020
One of BRC's last remaining GP38-2's 581 pulls up on BRC's Kenton Sub, before shoving back down the Charter Steel spur to pick up some empty steel cars. This job usually rates a MP15DC for power, so to catch a non-end cab switcher type on this job was quite the catch.

on the final leg of journey in June we caught up with a UP local getting ready to spot cars in Glenville, MN. CHris and I were hoping for a long train to shoot on the hilly terrain but after dropping a good chunk of cars at Glenville, this is all they had left.
UP 5524 west at the big curve in Loring earlier this week with a BNSF painted KCS GE tagging along for the ride. What a mess. At least the lead motor is clean by UP standards and we have some nice shadows here.

For an encore to what was already a great day trackside, rolling north on the Chester Sub after coming off the Mount Vernon Sub at Gorham is an empty Cook Coal Terminal (Metropolis, IL) train headed for a reload at North Antelope Rochelle Mine in Wyoming, passing the classic signal bridge at MP 83.

UP 5327 rolls west downhill towards Gila Bend Az. Seen here covering the west switch at the Bosque siding. This scene has sadly now changed with the removal of the Searchlights.
These were my entry and standby for our clubs recent print comp Foreshore or Beach.
Taken on a beach in Antigua recently.
Sadly I wasn't placed in the results but I got some nice comments.
GEEZ gonna GE. Massive columns of smoke were pouring out of the second unit of this consist which was a ratty looking NS GE of some sort. It was really barking and making noise as it went by. I wouldn't be surprised to discover that a piston got thrown out the side of it over around Grantville and landed in Cade's front yard.
Nonetheless, the 500mm focal length didn't get the switch heater out of the image and I didn't feel like running up the tracks to get it out of the view either. Plenty of heat distortion though.
We're supposed to get a big dump of snow tonight. There's nothing like warming up in front of a hot fireplace.
43172, 43423, 43013, 43300, 43048 & 43187 lined up at St Philips Marsh 40 years of the HST open day.
Following running repairs in the workshops at Rheine depot, oil-fired Class '043' 2-10-0 No.043 381-3 is lit up and its burners are in operation in order to bring up steam pressure, ready for it to work out its last days in DB service. Despite its poor external appearance here on 3rd September 1977, the 1941-built 'Jumbo' was not only to work until the end of steam on the Emsland line at the end of October 1977, but also survived the cutter's torch, and is today on display at the Bavarian Railway Museum in Nördlingen as 44 381.

Union Pacific Railroad GTEL (Gas Turbine Electric Locomotive) 65 at Omaha, Nebraska on an unknown day in July 1964, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 65 was built in June 1954 (c/n 32032) and retired in August 1963. The span bolsters and trucks were removed, reconditioned by the UP and shipped to GE's Erie, Pennsylvania plant for installation under the U50's. The body was scrapped at an unknown date.
The former CNW crossing of the Missouri River in Blair is an impressive structure. This will be worthy of a retry later in the afternoon now that the summer sun swings to the north side. Unfortunately the train I was waiting to shoot broke a metal air line and gridlocked things soon after. This soybean load off the Sioux City line will suffice for now.
