Hi. This is just a placeholder post to let you know I’m still around, even though it’s been a little while since I’ve posted. I’m OK.

I ride my bicycle a lot. Often it’s for errands – grocery store, Tim Hortons, library – but every week or so, I go for a longer ride. One destination is CN’s Symington Yard, the south/east end of which is about 10 km away from my house.
My son Nick gave me a camera a while ago. It’s widely described as a toy camera, or “rubbish”. It’s called a Panorama Wide Pic, “focus free”.
This article was provided by Richard Viberg, Ed Bowes and Art Clowes to tell the story of the Sunset dining train at the Salem and Hillsborough Railroad. They provided the majority of the photos, and I included a few of my exterior photos.
It’s Men’s Mental Health Week (June 6-13). We men need to take care of our mental health, and that starts with talking about it. Today I’d like to talk about anxiety.
When I first visited Winnipeg in the early 2000s, I went up the short tower in the Forks and photographed a train at nearby Union Station. Recently I decided to try that again.
One of the few bends in the CN Rivers subdivision is 16 miles west from Winnipeg’s downtown Union Station. Recently I spent an enjoyable morning there.
One photograph I always intended to make was a CN train crossing the Red River in Winnipeg. After living here for almost 16 years, I finally did it.
I don’t know why I titled this post “Luck of the Irish”. These photos were taken in the night of April 4-5, 2025, which was definitely not St. Patrick’s Day. And I’m not Irish.
