Getliffe's Yard, Leek, Staffordshire Moorlands.
A wonderful early 19th Century Yard turned into an amazing Shopping & Dining experience. Easy to walk past, but impossible to ignore once discovered. If Leek is the Queen of the Moorlands, Getliffes Yard is certainly the jewel in her crown.
CP J16 puts its train away at the UP Belt Yard behind a matching pair of repainted CP SD40-2s as a yard job rounds the bend behind the Pig's Eye shops with a rebuilt SD40-3 and a cut of five EMDs await their disposal.
This area opposite Kilkenny Castle was the stable yard in years gone by. It's now a National Craft Gallery. Some fine walls & windows HWW & HBM!
I was sitting out on the patio early this morning when this one and his/her twin and Mom came wandering through the yard. I think one day I will be sitting there and a bear will wander through. Then the camera will be doing some clicking! LOL
CN 1439 drills hoppers in the yard at Brantford. This unit only lasted 4 hours at Brantford before being swapped out for different power.
It was accidentally set off the day prior by CN 435 and 580 ended up using it because of their power running out of fuel. Talk about stars aligning.
While out driving came along this gem. Funny thing about photography, sometimes you don't need an amazing river, mountain or ocean to make a nice image. Just some nice light and the right conditions...
An eastward Norfolk Southern coal train with a freshly rebuilt SD60E works at Yards on the Virginia/West Virginia border as a westward stack train heads for Williamson, West Virginia. This is very obviously Norfolk & Western territory as evidenced by the color position light signals which have since been replaced as part of PTC upgrades. While I missed out on some really cool power back in the day, I'm glad I got to see the famed Pocahontas District mainline from Bluefield to Williamson before it lost all its old signals.
Digging around for worms or grubs. Chased it out but it kept coming back. Must be hungry and it looks young.
Soo yard in Sault Ste. Marie MI used to be quite a bit bigger back in the SOO/WC days in comparison to now(now basically consists of a couple long tracks, the former DSS&A and SOO mains along with a couple stub tracks). Back when I shot 6626 leading the ACLD toward the I-Bridge there was plenty of track still to be found here. May 6, 1996.
Three Burlington Northern Santa Fe trains wait to depart the yard at Sheridan, Wyoming, on June 14, 1997. The coal train led by BN EMD SD60M No. 9245 has yet to get a fresh crew, but the other two are ready to go. The intermodal train on the right, with leased LMX GE B39-8 No. 8516 leading, will depart first.
WAMX4023 arrived Janesville in January and received it's updates. Then the WSOR got hit by sub zero temps and two foot of snow and became power short so 4023 got fired up this week for yard duties. They say it's a great puller but is still without a heater. Here 4023 is working West Yard Janesville,Wi.
