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

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
NS #7102 and #5642 make the weekly run to Old Fort to work Auria. My work schedule happened to have me passing through on the way back home and I figured a quick break was in order.
Would have never seen him except for hearing one call out. He was in serious hunting mode, and I saw him dive down real quick. Unfortunately, my view was obstructed right below the branch he is on in this shot, so I didn't see if he was successful.

The pandemic has changed our lives in many ways -
Some for the good; some well maybe not.

“Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.”
― Andrew Carnegie
Those of you who follow my work know I have a thing for shooting freight under wire. Well this past Thursday I got a tip that CSXT Middleboro based daytime local B727 would be making a relatively uncommon move that was long on my wish list to shoot. B727 runs five days per week between Middleboro and Attleboro on the MassDOT owned and Mass Coastal maintained and dispatched Middleboro Subdivision serving customers and interchanging with the MC along the way.
On Thursdays they normally sneak out on to Amtrak's NEC main at BORO interlockong for a two and half mile shove west down Track 4 to East Junction to work a couple customers on that historic bit of trackage that I've written about in this caption: flic.kr/p/2jck93J
But there is one other customer in the area that every once in a while gets a switch. And on this day after shoving out they reversed direction and ran east a mile to a short twisting lead splitting off just short of Holden interlocking. This lead reaches down into the building of Polyfiber Inc. a subsidiary of Holland Manufacturing makers of industrial packaging, specialty coated and laminated products, water activated tapes and other products.
B726 has run the mile west with three cars trailing three GP40-2s. Just short of Holden they stopped and made two trips down and back on the lead to pull one empty and spot one load before shoving back east through Attleboro station toward East Junction. They are seen here on the rickety s-curve lead track down into the plant that leave main track 4 at MP 198.

The Cyprus-registered Barent Zanen working at The Port of Felixstowe in Suffolk, UK on the 8th of April 2016. It is a suction dredger that was built in 1985 and has deadweight of 14355t and a gross tonnage of 9773t. It is 133.58 metres in length and 23 metres in width. It's IMO number is 8315505 with a call sign of 5BFJ2.
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.
There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before.

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!

At the highest point reached by rail in the state of Connecticut Pan Local PL-1 reaches into the Firestone Building Products Yard at the end of track at the top of the Terryville Loop Track to pull a string of empty tank cars. This customer operates out of a portion of the huge 1.2 million square ft former General Motors New Departures ball bearing plant that was in operation from 1969 to 1995 and to this day remains the largest industrial building under one roof in all of the six New England states.
