Dark days -
Well as the second day without heating progresses - it's time to start wearing a hat indoors.
Fortunately the UK is undergoing a "warm" spell and the outside temperature is 12C, indoors it has dropped to 14C (mainly as a result of having open and close doors as we go about the day to day business of life).
My 99 year old mother-in-law feels the cold badly and normally has her part of the house at 30C has been complaining about the cold. She doesn't seem to remember that the heating is broken for more than about 30 minutes - so she is repeatedly asking me to "turn the heating up", (An electric fan heater is no substitute for a couple of big central heating radiators).
Hopefully the engineer will get the heating back on soon.

CSXT L007, the weekday Middleboro to Attleboro turn, has backed down into the Win Waste facility with their three GP40-2s and is about to double up a cut of outbound loaded trash cars at this important and relatively new customer that has breathed new life into the Myles Standish Industrial Lead. This lead is accessed from Attleboro Junction at MP 8.6 on the Middleboro Secondary mainline a bit over a half mile behind me where they dropped the balance of their train on their way back east from Attleboro.

My mathematical son Max sketching a mathematical representation of a glider. That's right, a glider. An engine-less airplane.
Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me, either. And that's the point of this photo. So much of what has happened to me this year hasn't made sense.
But I'm working on it. And I'm soo grateful for the friendship and family I've found here on Flickr. <3
I'll be home tomorrow, and back to making snarky comments on your photos, but in the meantime, I'd like to wish each of you a new year of sunny skies, clear eyes, beckoning horizons, storm-tossed seas, raucous laughter, cozy comforts, peace, joy, forgiveness, and above all, love. :D
Southern Railroad of New Jersey (SRNJ) #800 works the Universal Supply Company in Pleasantville. Currently their only ALCO with a working horn, the 800 gives a nice hit of classic ALCO smoke as it notches out of the facility.
CSXT's weekday West Springfield based local L012 has paused on its way east to Palmer to pull and spot Construction Services located just off the main at MP QB89.8 on CSXT's Boston Sub (ex Boston and Albany mainline). Ex Chessie GP40-2s 6227 and 6245 will drop their train on the single track main and duck into the stub ended siding at left, one of only a handful of customers remaining that is served directly off the mainline.
