47811 passing Shaldon Boat Yard with 1C23 10.52 Paddington Paignton "Torbay Express" Saturday 20 July 2002.
A trio of GP9's on one train with a GP38-2 and GP9 on the other makes up the always interesting Hamilton Yard sets.
In Wisconsin for a wedding and stopped at my parents for a quick visit. This is the view out the front yard from my childhood home and my parents' current home. Peak Fall color right now. A bit damp, but beautiful!
this is still hard to do, but since I'm getting a little more used to it, I just love taking shots like this!
While 11,068 ft. Provo Peak looms in the nearby Wasatch, Utah Railway and Union Pacific EMDs idle in Provo, Utah on Nov. 25, 2018. Heartening to think these two carriers that shared a yard jointly when I was a young kid are still doing just that.
This log cattle yard is located in the Alpine Nation Park, northeast of the town of Licola in Victoria, Australia.
It is on the Tamboritha Saddle at the junction of the Dingo Hill track and the Tamboritha Road.
The water filled wheel ruts in the foreground mark the start of the Dingo Hill track and green hairy Lichen can be seen growing on the logs.
The Tamboritha Saddle is a flat area at the top of the climb up from the Wellington River and it sits at 1,280 meters.
Low cloud covered the area however it did not intrude lower than about 50 meters below the saddle.
This low cloud provided diffused lighting which highlighted the beautiful autumn tones of the Alpine grasses and when I visited again five days later, these tones had all but disappeared.
It was cold as the temperature was somewhere around 1 to 3 degrees C but thankfully no wind.
The ramp to load cattle or horses on or off a truck uses the two large gum trees as its support with a cross section secured to the trees, with rocks and earth completing the structure.
NS 1020 & NS 9191 bringing NS 65R into the NS Kankakee Yard in heavy snow. This was an ethanol train bound for Hennepin, IL. This former Conrail Kankakee Line does not see much action these days. The two daily scheduled manifests have been annulled leaving just occasional grain trains, a few locals out of Kankakee, and the occasional Hennepin ethanol traffic.
Back to my ongoing search for interesting London alleyways. This is a newly redeveloped area called Eccleston Yards, very near to Victoria Station, and something I just stumbled onto as I was walking from Victoria Station down to Battersea Power Station one day a few months back. It consists of a number of small businesses, a 'co-working and creative hub', and a pleasant courtyard with a couple of eating establishments off of it.
It's got a bit of history to it. This from Wikipedia:
"Eccleston Yards was previously the location of Eccleston Place Power Station, owned by Westminster Electric Supply Corporation Ltd. whom supplied electricity to the Mayfair & Belgravia area for the first time in 1891."
Nice to see a historic location like this get a facelift and make it relevant in the 21st century. It's also got a cracking alleyway!
After bringing empties in from Williamson as a J42, the U63 Weller crew has picked up a cab and is headed back to their train on track 5 on the right, with Union Pacific's Southern Pacific Heritage Unit on point.
CP 2317 on point for the CP 1559 Yard Job as they head westbound on the north track of the CP Nipigon Sub with a pull of empties from the Richardson Terminal in the Current River area of a smoky Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Back when Proctor meant ore and all the tracks were still in. At least today the yard remains active, with ore and the addition of manifest traffic after CN's purchase.
Inbound tidewater empties and a KNWA pusher set idle in the former Virginian Railway’s Elmore Yard in Mullens, Wv on a quiet summers morning.
Just behind me was where the Virginian’s “Motor Barn” was located that was ground zero for their extensive electric operations; if You look close some of the catenary poles can be seen above the 6000 and 9822.

Seeing the superb finish on D213 yesterday here she is back on 23 July 1984 as 40013 with painted name "Andania" leaving Arpley Yard with 6E94 20.08 Speedlink to Harwich Parkstone Quay nicknamed the "Whitemoor" The train was routed over the Ditton Jn to Skelton Jn line which went up Latchford Bank and over the Manchester Ship Canal on the route that closed on 7 July 1985 and is now partly the Trans Pennine Trail.

Hudson Yards
New York City

The extraordinary centerpiece of Hudson Yards is its spiral staircase, a soaring new landmark meant to be climbed. This interactive artwork was imagined by Thomas Heatherwick and Heatherwick Studio as an focal point where people can enjoy new perspectives of the city and one another from different heights, angles and vantage points.
Comprised of 154 intricately interconnecting flights of stairs -- almost 2,500 individual steps and 80 landings – the nearly one mile of vertical climb offers remarkable views of the city, the river and beyond.
Caught on our feeder. Metal in the middle but he's here to share some winter cheer with spring weather today of 60 degrees.

The black-capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) is a small, nonmigratory, North American songbird that lives in deciduous and mixed forests. It is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is the state bird of both Maine and Massachusetts in the United States, and the provincial bird of New Brunswick in Canada. It is well known for its capacity to lower its body temperature during cold winter nights as well as its good spatial memory to relocate the caches where it stores food, and its boldness near humans (sometimes feeding from the hand).
I captured this shot while walking through an old, historical building. Nobody seemed interested in the back yard, hence the lack of people. You can just see Erddig Hall in the background. I loved it. I feel the sepia added to mood.
Soo Line's Ford train works it's way into Muskego Yard at Burnham Bridge in Milwaukee with the latest motive power. When the train reaches the west end of the yard, they will pick up flatcars of truck frames brought down from A.O.Smith in North Milwaukee via transfer job, to be cut into the train before highballing for the Twin Cities.

I do believe this was near Port Colbourne. Nice looking truck.
One of these days I am going to buy myself one of these and it can sit on my front yard.
Happy Truck tHuRsDay
