Don't I look cute.

Whats this - is it a stall holders meeting?

Could this be termed a stallholders meeting in Market terms?
We're not convinced that its not, and technically, somebody should be recording minutes, just for future reference.




This on the other hand whilst looking awfully suspicious is not technically a meeting, it looks more like collusion.

Southern Pacific RR First Diesel

This is apparently the first diesel loco owned and operated by Southern Pacific. It goes without saying that this pic has been ripped off from another site, but this time the site and the image maker are both identified on the image. We are getting better.

Concrete floor

This is what happens when kittys don't do the right thing with their nice bluemetal floor, they get a concrete floor.

A Tank at last.

After more than four months, finally have the new 5000 gallon tank.
Now the rain will stop.

The Ferals at the end of Ann Street are at it again.

How hard can it be to knock a hole in a wall and make a new doorway.
Final word on the matter, if you value your chain and bar....don't do it.

Dead Horses

Riding a dead horse into the 21st Century

The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from generation to generation, says that when you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. In modern corporate America and government, however, a whole range of far more advanced strategies are often employed, such as:

• Buying a stronger whip.
• Changing riders.
• Threatening the horse with termination.
• Appointing a committee to study the horse.
• Sending a Congressional delegation to see how other countries ride dead horses.
• Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
• Reclassifying the dead horse as "living impaired."
• Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
• Harnessing several dead horses together to increase the speed.
• Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead horse's performance.
• Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse's performance.
• Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead, and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line than do some other horses.
• Rewriting the minimum performance requirements for all horses.
• Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.
• Keep reassessing the horse until it rises from the dead.

This could very well be one of the most comprehensive collections of rail photography available on the net currently. It is predominantly American rail, but there is a lot of other stuff as well, and all good quality images.
