It was taken on the beach in Houston by the ocean. I chose this photo because traveling is something I love to do. Getting away from the cold temperatures of Columbus and going to the southern United States to see the ocean and beaches was a perfect thing to do during spring break.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/arte/">C-Monster</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/arte/54387300926/" title="Views of the Kinder Building at MFAH"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54387300926_b8994ee5fd_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Views of the Kinder Building at MFAH" /></a></p> <p>designed by Steven Holl</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/arte/">C-Monster</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/arte/54386419757/" title="Mauricio Nogueira Lima, &quot;Objeto rítmico No. 2 (segunda versão),&quot; 1952"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54386419757_9d5d3bd84f_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Mauricio Nogueira Lima, &quot;Objeto rítmico No. 2 (segunda versão),&quot; 1952" /></a></p> <p>in a gallery of abstract geometric work in the Kinder Building at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/arte/">C-Monster</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/arte/54386420047/" title="Various totems by Francisco Matto, 1970s and &#039;80s"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54386420047_c40058cdf4_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Various totems by Francisco Matto, 1970s and &#039;80s" /></a></p> <p>in a gallery of abstract geometric work in the Kinder Building at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/auvet/">jimmywayne</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/auvet/54385143766/" title="Houston Federal Building Murals Sign"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54385143766_0ecaab27af_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Houston Federal Building Murals Sign" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/auvet/">jimmywayne</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/auvet/54384274667/" title="Houston Federal Building Mural Artist Signature"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54384274667_f3c64dc2d3_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Houston Federal Building Mural Artist Signature" /></a></p> <p>New Deal mural depicts &quot;Houston Ship Channel--Contemporary Scenes&quot; and was painted by Jerry Bywaters in 1941.

The locomotive stayed with Illinois Central (and during its stint as the Illinois Central Gulf) for 25 years, finally being sold in August 1998 to the Newburgh &amp; South Shore Railroad in Cleveland.<br /> <br /> About 15 years later, the locomotive was acquired by Railway Switching Services (Railserve), becoming RSSX 5049. It's been assigned to the Houston area for nearly 10 years now, currently providing contract switching for some chemical plants at Bayport in the far eastern reaches of the Port of Houston.<br /> <br /> RSSX GP10 #5049<br /> <br /> Pasadena, TX<br /> February 15th, 2025</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/159558871@N05/">Christopher Parma</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/159558871@N05/54382608168/" title="RSSX 904 - SW1200"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54382608168_9837110f00_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="RSSX 904 - SW1200" /></a></p> <p>Built for the Missouri Pacific as MP 1150 in April 1966, this veteran EMD has been switching cars for almost 60 years. The locomotive made it to Union Pacific's roster after the MP-UP merger, but never received a UP number. It was sold as MP 1150 to Precision National Corp in April 1985. PNC turned around and sold the locomotive in December 1986 to Railway Switching Services (Railserve), and the engine has been doing contract switching ever since.<br /> <br /> As of 2025, RSSX 904 calls Bayport in the Port of Houston as its home. Here it's sitting at the Baystar chemical plant, a manufacturer of various polyethylene products.<br /> <br /> RSSX SW1200 #904<br /> <br /> Bayport, TX<br /> February 15th, 2025</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/159558871@N05/">Christopher Parma</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/159558871@N05/54382762810/" title="Sunset Limited Through Sawyer Yards"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54382762810_29cb58e592_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Sunset Limited Through Sawyer Yards" /></a></p> <p>Amtrak Train #1, the westbound Sunset Limited, rolls past the former rice silos at Sawyer Yards just west of Downtown Houston.<br /> <br /> The train here is on the Freight Main of UP's Houston Sub, having missed the Amtrak Station due to an alternate routing from Beaumont today (the station is on the Passenger Main, about a quarter mile to the south and a mile to the east of here). Today #1 took the normally eastbound-only Beaumont Sub (former MP) to get to Houston, which doesn't allow direct access to the Houston depot. So, at Chaney Jct ahead, #1 will throw it in reverse and shove back a mile &amp; a half to make their station stop.<br /> <br /> AMT1 12 (Westbound Sunset Limited)<br /> AMTK P42DC #45<br /> AMTK P42DC #76<br /> <br /> Houston, TX<br /> February 12th, 2025</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/arte/">C-Monster</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/arte/54381160938/" title="&quot;Navigating the Waves: Contemporary Cuban Photography,&quot; at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MFAH)"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54381160938_814c1b28da_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="&quot;Navigating the Waves: Contemporary Cuban Photography,&quot; at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston (MFAH)" /></a></p> <p>Humberto Mayol, &quot;La Habana, Cuba,&quot; 1987 / printed 1992</p>
