No Title (El Tristan)

Along the Water Level Route

This is an eastbound Amtrak's Maple Leaf rolling through Palatine Bridge, New York. We're on the former New York Central along side the Mohawk River (part of the railroad's so-called Water Level Route).

(Still confused by _which_ bridge it's all named after lol)

Bm3-kiskobusseja hankittiin VR:lle kaksi kappaletta vuonna 1939. Ne olivat rakenteeltaan samanlaisia kuin vuotta aiemmin toimitettu yksittäinen Bm2-yksikkö, mutta Bm3:n rakentaja oli Motala Verkstad, kun Bm2:n rakensi ja suunnitteli Hilding Carlsson. Bensiinikäyttöiset kiskobussit poistettiin käytöstä 1950-luvun lopussa. Ylemmässä kuvassa Bm3 #22 rakenteilla Motalassa, alemmassa #21 Kouvolassa noin vuonna 1948.

The new german Cobra 600 jet-powered interceptor drone, shown here equipped with a single Iris-T radar-guided BVR missile.

You can still afford at least a couple hundred "Lock-On-After-Launch" IRIS-T munitions for the cost of (1) F35 airframe only.

What's most interesting is that the cost to abort an interdiction is approximately zero, so, scramble the Cobra 600 with payload and when it turns out to be a weather balloon that IRIS-T remains unfired and the whole thing RTB while you send up the WWI biplane with two old Hans and a WWII machine gun.

Very niche.

2-10-2T is a brutal configuration for a locomotive! I'm going to shoot myself because I'm not sure if these pics are the same class, but hoooo yah — Power! Tractive effort!

...1982

The deadlines are long gone but fortunately a number were purchased at scrap prices and many preserved — summer road trip stretch goals right here...
