Wind turbine blades passing through Colorado. This is just the tail end of long string parked at the BNSF yards. The blades are so long they require double length articulated rail cars to negotiate curves.

Oh dear, I posted this in another thread but should have here. Here is quite the historical photo taken in Houghton Mi on January 9, 1967.

I don’t know if it’s ok to take a quick break from copying/pasting railroad pictures, but a SEPTA subcontractor arrived today and tore out 940’ of rails and the ties underneath.

You can see the old steel & stone pier bridge way back there.

The small rails to trails project has begun.

OK, back to cut/paste pictures. Sorry for the interruption…..

The guys on the range in MN are pretty excited about these new cars showing up there so photos of them are be posted lots. This is a good one --------------- ----------
