CPKC's Duluth based job JS12 with a lone GP20C-ECO is seen spotting boxcars at the Valley Worldwide Logistics warehouse in the Duluth Seaway Port Authority Complex across Helberg Drive from the small former Soo Line yard that CPKC retains on Rices Point that this job and at least one other are based out of.

 

Historically the Northern Pacific was the dominant railroad in Duluth and they had massive facilities here, though multiple competing Class 1s also served the city which even today is reached by four of the remaining six mega systems. In addition to Soo and NP, the Omaha Road (CNW), and Great Northern maintained smaller yards here on Rices Point which had connections to Superior via the NP's Minnesota and Wisconsin drawbridges as well as the dual rail/road Interstate Bridge.

 

Rices Point was once laced with a truly astonishing amount of rail infrastructure and though greatly diminished you can still find CPKC and BNSF jobs working the area daily and can catch the UP making a trip over from Superior twice a week.

 

For a sweeping overview here's a shot of mine of this same job from a visit the year prior: flic.kr/p/2pwy6Z3

The pandemic has changed our lives in many ways -

 

Some for the good; some well maybe not.

 

Alcohol abuse has increased during the coronavirus pandemic, according to the British Liver Trust, which has reported a 500% rise in calls to its helpline since lockdown began in March.

 

Stay safe, get vaccinated when you can.

John Lennon - „Working class hero“

As soon as you′re born they make you feel small

By giving you no time instead of it all

'Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

A working class hero is something to be

A working class hero is something to be

 

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school

They hate you if you′re clever and they despise a fool

'Til you're so fucking crazy you can′t follow their rules

A working class hero is something to be

A working class hero is something to be

 

When they′ve tortured and scared you for twenty odd years

Then they expect you to pick a career

When you can't really function you′re so full of fear

A working class hero is something to be

A working class hero is something to be

 

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV

And you think you're so clever and classless and free

But you′re still fucking peasants as far as I can see

A working class hero is something to be

A working class hero is something to be

 

There's room at the top they are telling you still

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill

If you want to be like the folks on the hill

A working class hero is something to be

A working class hero is something to be

 

If you want to be a hero well just follow me

If you want to be a hero well just follow me

Chickadee on reed

the tactor working the field producing the dusty residue as it truddles along. I tried to get closer to use a shorter lens, however the was not possible.

I love wisteria and we are lucky enough to have quite a lot of it in our garden. That being said, this was actually taken somewhere else

A dizzying prospect. After you finished this side, can you please cross the road and do the other side. Four really hard working workers trimming the grape vines at a seemingly endless job. I expect they try not to look at the bigger picture and concentrate on the vine directly in front of them. Double click to view the details. I'm sure my drone humming in the air 100 feet above them was a welcome distraction. At least no one shot it down............... yet.

The power of a westbound Conrail train has just uncoupled from its train to make a pickup in Reading, Pennsylvania. Six month old C40-8W 6062 still serves NS today as its 8321. I personally think it looked much better in blue.

Or hardly working?

Sometimes days are gloomy and you have to do that pesky work, but it's nicer in a cozy chair with a beautiful view, promising a pleasant evening approaching...

Early in the morning you will always see local dog walkers making the most of the Forest before the tourists descend throughout the rest of the day. This was especially true last weekend as it was the beginning of the half term holidays. Most of the camp-sites will close after this week and we will be back to our normal peaceful selves:-)

Well I've been on a WC kick this week so why not continue that into Thirty Thursday with a couple more WC shots. The WC started up with a fleet of 17 ex SOO 30's along with other varied units. Most of the Ex SOO's were laid up in the first few years but then WC added three ex CNW 30's when the GBW/FRVR purchase was made. These three added to the 5 ex SOO's that were retained made for a nice little fleet of 30's that lasted as long or nearly as long as the WC. This is job LO-42 at Newberry with 820 and 584 on April 23. 1995. That's the "Hospital Branch" curving off to the left where most of the rail shippers in the Newberry area are located.

The Fayetteville Local goes about its morning getting its train ready in the Springdale Yard. This would be a productive chase with a very nice pair of Alcos to work with.

Back in my working days, I used to travel the world. My companions were a series of little Canon point-and-shoot cameras. Every once in a while I find myself on a walk down memory lane. I recently found this early morning shot taken along the Nekar Rivier in Tubingen, Germany. I really like the rich green tones in this image and was surprised I hadn't noticed it until now.

Refurbishment of a restaurant / pub in central Galway provided this colourful portrait of one of the workers.

While watching this Northern Harrier 'working the hills' late afternoon at Bodega Head it made a turn and passed closely by while I sat in my car camera in hand...what a thrill!
