UP 949 and 951 were in the shop today to get there rotary beacon changed. Walthers put the wrong type on these units. So they were changed out to the western cullen type which is what is on the prototype units today.
the only UP SD45's I saw were at the end of their lives at Erman Corp in Kansas City in the winter of 1986/87
This Union Pacific caboose is at the tail end of a short excursion train at the Southern California Railway Museum in Perris, California. It was built in 1944.
This was the set up with the shadow figures made of black plates on the desk, the minifigure slightly behind then and two light sources: the main lamp at the front and a soft light coming from the window during the early evening. I had to wedge the camera next to the puppets so that they moved out of the frame. Having the phone here, it also nicely shadowed the minifig.
Shot A was an early one, it was almost perfect, except that I felt the two shadows seem to be walking away (exit: stage left and stage right and the Shadow King is saying "Hey, guys, don't go, wait!") So I moved the phone closer to the King to make him bigger and moved the puppets closer in together.
Unfortunately doing this messed up the neat set up I had and the shadows lost something in shot B, they're fuzzier. But overall I thought the whole shot what stronger than the first, so B was close to the pic for the final (minus all the Photoshop stuff).

Are good friend Allie was in town from Scotland which sounded like a good reason to pretty ourselves up and hit the town for a girlie night out.
Lost - one clean-up fairy. Possibly escaped under the door. If found, please let us know. She is sorely missed and the house is a pigsty.
Spent the holiday weekend at Pictured Rock National Lakeshore. Beautiful are with many waterfalls. Wagner Falls is one of several within a couple of miles of the little town of Munising.
Not the comp I wanted, but the hard-to-get-over baordwalk positions you right here. In hindsight, I should have done what I did at some of the others and just climb over.
