Train break! Eastbound Q401, with elephant-style power on the lead.
A rare unit train of sulfur tankers, westbound passing Metropolitan Grove Road.
Old Main Line to Baltimore on the left, Metropolitan Branch to Washington on the Right and E. Francis Baldwin's gorgeous Point of Rocks station in-between.
It's a SIGN!
A tiny new tree grows among the bones of an unlucky deer near Point of Rocks.
Point of Rocks Tunnel - west portal. Boo!
Ghost trains and weird noises and shiny rails.
Then this little guy fluttered by.
Sometimes, I love my mistakes.
Rocks was the place to be on this Summer day, as storms and their awesome thunderheads were all over Frederick county all afternoon.
More later. A bit more fun with the baby panda, some funky time exposures in the dark . . . and Carolina Lighthouses. Eventually.
One more set of photos of baby Tai Shan before we move on. Above, he shares a quiet moment with his mother before biting her up one side and down the other.
How the little guy could sleep in this tree, day after day, for weeks on end, without ever falling out . . . is simply beyond me.
