Holiday Leftovers from LAUPT
Where Have I Been?
As the lack of recents posts atest to, I have been crazy busy lately. Not only have I been working a ton to finish a large project by year’s end at the office, but the holidays are upon us and we are entertaining out-of-state guests for a few weeks. As if that wasn’t enough, I have also spent all of my spare time learning a unique subject that has always interested me. Soon I will prepare a post on the topic and the byproduct of all my research and learning.
Until then, I was making preparations for the upcoming new year when I came across some images that I like which I had not worked into a post yet. Since I am feasting on, as many of you are I suspect, holiday leftovers (honey-baked ham with all the fixings) I thought I would put together a post with some “photo leftovers” until I finish my major effort previously disclosed.
LAUPT Leftovers
Here is a collection of photos taken in March of 2011 at Los Angeles Union Station or, as I prefer to say, LAUPT (Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal):
While researching the following sequence of images for caption information, I came across a YouTube video which explained the content photographed below. Here is the video taken by Rin Snuffy:
On the Calendar
I have been on vacation from work for about one week now and I have a few more days before I must go back. I intend on making some preparations this weekend for a short trip to chase some steel that I have planned for early next week. I was fortunate enough to recieve some cool gadgets from Santa and I am looking forward to “playing” with them during the trip. I will let you folks know about them and what I think of them after I put them to the test.
I will also to continue my studies and work on my “project” as time permits. I hope to have something pretty slick and be able to share it you all soon. Until then, see you trackside chasing steel!
