Dear Friends,
My #TransitTuesday and #ClimateDiary entry today. For train enthusiasts this is a M3 train built about 40 years ago. This photo was made about 5 years ago but many are still in service. They are good for #photography because they don't have the high-back plastic bucket seats that limit sight lines of later carriages. Also, much more space for overhead storage than later and current models.
#TakeTheTrain to #decarbonize.

Dear Friends,
Electric trains are part of the #ClimateSolutions conversation. Much of the Long Island Rail Road System is electrified. But, sadly, much is not. Diesel trains are the rule further east on Long Island where electrification has not reached. Incredible!
This is The Long Island Railroad at Huntington Station.

Yours,
ESM

Dear friends of photography and photographers,

The first is a view up #MainStreet in Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania. The #memorial is to the #soldiers who served in #WW1.

The second is an image of a few patrons at the lunch counter there.
It was taken a few years ago so things may have changed.

This was the only person #dancing at the time to a rock band in a weekly #StreetFair in #Truckee #California. It may have been because it was very hot. Temps were 90 f which is rather warm for a community high in the #SierraNevada mountains.

The weekly event is Truckee Thursdays. It's very well attended.
