Aside from a small blip in July, temperatures have been cemented in the comfortable range and are forecasted to stay there into August.<br /> <br /> Being the last weekend of July, and having not made good on my New Years Resolution to get out to shoot trains once a month, I quit work an hour early and headed out. In a normal year, I would head north to UP's Caliente Subdivision, which while still hot, would at least be a few degrees cooler than Las Vegas. However, there were a handful of shots on the BNSF Needles Sub that were summer angles. In an ordinary year, temperatures would be pushing 120 out there, and even short hikes to photo locations would be uncomfortable, even foolish. Ludlow was forecast to top out at 98, so that sealed the deal, I was headed south to take advantage.<br /> <br /> My selected photo spot offered an expansive view of the BNSF in the Ludlow environs, and as it turned out I-40. The short hike up the hill was pleasant in the warm summer evening, and an hour and a half before sunset the waiting game began. Traffic on the BNSF was average, but I seemed to be in a lull of trains. A quick check of the Barstow railcam, however, assured me the lull would not be for long. There were 3 eastbounds headed my way, and at least 1 if not more were going to hit in prime lighting.<br /> <br /> The first eastbound came and went, and I tried various compositions, but I-40 kept butting in there like an unwelcome guest. I tested a composition that worked it in and decided that I liked it quite well. 20 minutes later, train number 2 showed up in amazing light, and this is the result. Between I-40 and BNSF, a whole lot of freight is being moved east. Train 3 came through a few minutes after sunset. That shot may get posted eventually, but the light was pretty flat.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/newportcollier/">Mount Fuji Man</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/newportcollier/54680412888/" title="Ludlow Old Cemetery"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54680412888_f8242a4f08_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Ludlow Old Cemetery" /></a></p> <p>This is in Corve Street, it belongs to St. Laurence Church, and contains St. Leonard's Church.

This was very enjoyable. <br /> <br /> My main course was crab. I don't mind some brown meat, though on this occasion the white stuff was in short supply.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/newportcollier/">Mount Fuji Man</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/newportcollier/54680512780/" title="Ludlow Old Cemetery"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54680512780_cfd9049dbb_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Ludlow Old Cemetery" /></a></p> <p>This is in Corve Street, it belongs to St. Laurence Church, and contains St. Leonard's Church.

Broad Street, Ludlow, Shropshire, England." /></a></p> <p>Commentary.<br /> <br /> Such history. <br /> Such dignity.<br /> Such elegance.<br /> Such is Ludlow.<br /> Sir John Betjeman’s and my own favourite <br /> town, in all England.<br /> Silkmill Lane, an extension of Broad Street, shown in this image, leads down the river terrace, to Lower Broad Street<br /> from the Market Cross and the grand Parish Church of St. Laurence, towards the River Teme, a tributary of the River Severn.<br /> A wonderful road made up of pre-Tudor, Tudor, Georgian and Regency dwellings and hostelries.<br /> The narrow “gate,” just in view, is the last of seven that were built by 1270, to protect this fortified town.<br /> Coaching Inns and Public Houses congregated in these roads.<br /> The wool industry, that flourished from the 14th. -17th. Centuries brought great wealth to the Merchant Classes, as manifested in the large and grandiose Parish Church.<br /> “Drovers Roads,” brought sheep and wool from Wales until the 19th. Century.<br /> “The Angel,” in Broad Street, is one such Coaching Inn,<br /> that could tell many a story, if it could speak.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/yorkboatclub/">yorkboatclub</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/yorkboatclub/54676011941/" title="67015"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54676011941_0ae7ab595a_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="67015" /></a></p> <p>1V46 14.30 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff approaching Ludlow, 11th July 2025.
