Een van de vele watervallen die ik deze vakantie tegen ben gekomen. Altijd leuk om te zien, al dat neerstortende water.
Waterfall
One of the many waterfalls that I've come across this vacation. Always nice to see, all that water crashing down.
Van 8 t/m 11 september ging ik samen met een vriend 4 dagen treinen spotten in het mooie Tsjechië. De voorspellingen lieten een aantal dagen met zon zien en qua werk kon het ook nog even. De eerste dag werd begonnen in Brniště en vervolgens werd naar het Elbe gereden.
Toen we op de vroege ochtend onderweg waren, waren we eerst van plan om naar het Elbetal te gaan. In de omloop zagen we echter dat er vanuit Děčín drie "duikbrillen" van ČDC waren vertrokken waaronder twee in een bijzondere kleurstelling. Twee daarvan zouden met een goederentrein richting Šluknov rijden en eentje zou met een goederentrein naar Brniště en Jablonné v Podještědí. De kans was dus groot dat er een mooie duikbril naar Brniště zou vertrekken. Onderweg kregen we de bevestiging dat de fraaie rode 750 338-6 de trein zou rijden.
Eenmaal aangekomen in Brniště bleek dat de goederentrein een vertraging had opgelopen. Gelukkig konden we tijdens het wachten nog twee reizigerstreinen (een 843 en een Arriva 845) worden gefotografeerd. Met ruim een uur vertraging kwam de goederentrein met de duikbril uiteindelijk binnen. Daarna duurde het nog een tijd voordat de locomotief los verder zou rijden naar Jablonné v Podještědí. Dit alles gebeurde met de zon tegen en zodoende konden er niet echt fraaie foto's worden genomen. Om toch een mooie zonnige plaat te kunnen maken, werd een portretje geschoten van de gave duikbril. Normaal ben ik niet zo van de lokportretten, maar deze kon ik niet later schieten.
Op de foto de ČDC 750 338-6 in een zonnig Brniště op 8-9-2021. De vriendelijke machinist gaf ons wat informatie en zodoende konden we 1,5 uur later aan de lijn de fraaie locomotief alsnog met een fraaie goederentrein fotograferen.

Maine Northern Railway Train 521-11 switches LaJoie Growers on 4/11/2025.
LaJoie runs a warehouse here which loads and unloads products for the Twin Rivers Paper mill in Madawaska, since there isn't a whole lot of room at the mill. In addition to this LaJoie takes cars of fertilizer for local potato farms, in addition to shipping occasional loads of potatoes.
Behind me is the large Irving lumber transload, which can load 10-11 cars at a time with lumber from various mills in New Brunswick.
Once done working the US side, 521 will normally work the Irving mill across the river in Saint-Leonard, NB as well as dropping interchange traffic with CN. However on this day they didn't end up switching the mill.
At one point tracks continued south from here to Stockholm, where the line split with one leg going to Caribou and the other to Mapleton. The trackage from Caribou to Van Buren was pulled during the BAR's downsizing in the late 60-80's, while the Mapleton-Stockholm line survived for a few more years. After large plots of land were sold by the paper companies, the BAR got rid of the Mapleton-Stockholm portion after the loss of logs going to the paper mills.
A few customers remained in Van Buren until sometime in the 90's. Around 15-20 years ago, US Customs and Border Protection bought the remaining track running into downtown, to allow for a new border crossing to be built on the former right of way. Today the line dead ends around a mile south of this point.

J'ai croisé ce jeune bouquetin lors d'une randonnée au Creux du Van par un temps pluvieux. Celui-ci, pas farouche du tout, s'est laissé photographier à moins de 1 mètre de distance. Je n'ai pas un équipement de photographie adapté à la photo d'animaux sauvages, je n'avais que mon petit Leica équipé d'un objectif à focale fixe de 35mm.
I came across this young ibex while hiking in the Creux du Van on a rainy day. Not at all shy, it let itself be photographed from less than 1 meter away. I don't have any photographic equipment adapted to wildlife photography, all I had was my little Leica equipped with a prime lens 35mm.

How most Aussies think of the CF Bedsteads - as an ice-cream van!
Saw this one at an Australia Day celebration - still going strong...
Back in 1998, it was most normal to cross the river here and to get wet.

This old camper van was found inside a barn of an abandoned farm. Surrounded by straw ... I guess that's one of the reasons why it's still in a slightly good condition. The straw makes from the barn a dry environment so it preserves better.

Van is performing on Cyprus Avenue in Belfast Avenue today, so I thought a repolish and repost might be timely ;-)

Armin van Buuren (born in Leiden, Netherlands on 25 December 1976) is a Dutch trance producer and DJ. In 2007, 2008, and 2009 he was voted number one in DJ Magazine's annual top 100 list of the most popular DJs. Since 2001 van Buuren has hosted a weekly radio show called A State of Trance and claims to have over 30 million weekly listeners in more than 40 countries, which would make it the most listened radio show in the world. His 2008 studio album, Imagine, entered the Dutch album chart at #1, a first for a dance artist in Dutch music history.
Armin van Buuren has always had his own studio and worked alone in the beginning of his career. Since the release of his third studio album Imagine from 2008 he has been working with Benno de Goeij of Rank 1 on all solo productions and remixes. He is well known for his annual "Year Mix" which incorporates clips and custom mashups from the year's most popular trance tracks. Each year-mix consists of about 85 individual releases, edited into a 2 hour mix which is released on double CD as well as aired on his weekly radio show at the end of each year. According to van Buuren, each year-mix takes several months to make, including thousands of digital audio edits and hundreds of audio plugins.
