Hey! A new train! DB is really stepping up their game!

Delivery Only Waffle House? What’s the point?

De Lucht West on the A2 Snellweg in the Netherlands is the oldest auto service plaza in use. It will always hold a special place in my heart because it’s where my partner and I had our first meal when I visited then for the first time back in 2020.

This is what most people have on their desk at a furry convention, right? If you’re at NFC I’m hosting my model railroad panel on Friday night - stop by and I can show you what I’ve been working on.

I had a dream last night where I TF'ed into a magnificent avian and I have been fantasizing about it all day. I can't help but thing that @dizfoley.bsky.social is somewhat responsible for this...

It begins.... #whamageddon

The one good thing about @McDonalds discontinuing Mello Yellow is I never have to go there again. Why would they stop offering the one thing that kept me stopping by?

I have a pretty view this morning from G-XWBP.

They say you can't go home again. 33 years ago I left my home in Germany for Texas. Today I got to revisit my old house and school as an adult for the first time by myself. The buildings and memories still exist. But it's different somehow. I can best describe today as surreal.

I really enjoy traveling with Deutsche Bahn. I had a 15 minute delay which resulted in a misconnect. I managed to turn that 15 minute delay into a 2 hour EARLY arrival. Now I can enjoy my ICE chili con carne and glass Coke while watching the world fly by at 300 km/h.

Buc-ee's lunch is best lunch.

This is going to be a fun takeoff. Those storm clouds don't look very friendly.

Breakfast is served! Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs Clanton's Cafe, Vinita Oklahoma

It's not often I have two rental vehicles at the same time while I'm on vacation, but here we are...

After a nice evening in Toronto, we went down to Niagara Falls. We had to since we were in the neighborhood.

Toronto was a nice city to visit. We stayed at the Radisson on the harbour front, walked around downtown and even saw a GO Transit F59 in good light.

After 5 days and 4 nights, we finally made it to Toronto. It was an enjoyable 100 hours on the train but it will be nice to sleep in a bed that doesn't move tonight.

Good morning from beautiful western Ontario! The train is only 7 hours late, but on the bright side, we get to see parts of Canada we normally wouldn't. Cell service is virtually non existent out here which is a nice chance of pace.

Greetings from beautiful Saskatoon Saskatchewan! We left the splendor of the Rockies behind and are taking in the breathtaking views of the Canadian prairies.

Happy Easter! 🐺

It's another beautiful day on board Via Rail Canada's Canadian. We've left the beautiful Rocky Mountains are are entering the wonderful prairies of Saskatchewan.

It's almost boarding time! 96 hours of fun and excitement await us onboard Via Rail Canada's "Canadian" train. I hope it lives up to the hype!

I can't think of a more authentic Canadian lunch than this...

Finally getting settled here in Vancouver BC. The weather is wonderful, the scenery is beautiful and everyone is so friendly. Well, except for that one guy.

I'm now sitting in a 28 year old 767-380 heading to Reykjavik. She started life working for Air New Zealand and now calls Iceland home. While everything looks a bit long in the tooth, I'm sure she'll do a fine job getting me safely to KEF.

Vacation starts...now! The funny thing is looks almost the same when I'm going to work.

You know if a steakhouse has this sign in the front window it's going to be good.

Hey Metra, the 70's called. They want their train back.

I went out for a well deserved steak fajita dinner after a hard day's work. Just like home!

Does anyone else remember the days Oklahoma was VERY aggressive about speed enforcement?

This nice commission came up for random reaons. Deval as an engineer with Eufaula as the conductor. Can anybody guess the locomotive? Drawn by the talented @santhanvutha.bsky.social

I have to go to a "Dog and Pony" show at work tomorrow. Does that term ring a bell with anyone or am I the only one that uses it?

Duolingo visits Cook County Illinois...

Twitter isn't what it used and it's time to move on. So I'm going to the place where the skies are blue. Which train should I take to get there? Photo by the talented @bluehasia.bsky.social
