In the Capital City

This post will conclude the series focusing on one train, powered by F-units, on the former Chicago & Alton, later GM&O/ICG.

We begin at Ridgely Yard, Springfield, Illinois, where our train is approaching a signal bridge adorned with a color position light for each main track. The second image has the train crossing over North Ninth Street, while the third shows it south of downtown Springfield at Iles Tower. You may be able to see in that last image that the engineer is leaning out of the window, arm extended, so he can pick up train orders on the fly.

Three images by Richard Koenig; taken November 21st 1976.

F3s on the Alton

Here we see a northbound train on the historical Chicago & Alton (GM&O/ICG) in Springfield, Illinois. The train is on the main adjacent to Ridgely Yard off Sangamon Avenue.

ICG 1615 was GM&O 806A prior to renumbering and a paint job; both of these units were built in 1946. The Chicago & Alton had color-position lights due to it being controlled by the Baltimore & Ohio, whose chief engineer devised the wonderful signals.

Going through my pictures from Illinois I ran across this one I took of a bobcat. One afternoon I took Amara to the zoo in Soringfield and we had a great time wondering around and looking at all the animals. Ok, I did the looking and Amara just enjoyed the ride in her stroller. I am missing my nephew and his family. I can't wait to see them again! #52bracketeers #52framesphotographers #52frames #52frames_depthoffield #natgeoyourshot #natgeo100contest #natgeowild #natgeotravel #travelphotography #travelgram #photooftheday #pictureoftheday #catsofinstagram #bobcat #instatravel #Instagram #illinois #springfieldillinois #zoo #gooutside #exploreillinois #explore #disabledphotographer #cancersurvivor #fibrowarrior #fibromyalgia #wildlifephotography #photographer (at Springfield, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ7kmADP-id/?utm_medium=tumblr

Greetings from Tbilisi, Georgia where my weird life has landed me for the moment. . Today I am launching my Patreon. . Patreon is a monthly subscription service for artists and musicians. With levels starting at $5, you’ll get new music and other things I will be releasing exclusively through this platform including (but not limited to) new songs, 20% off my Bandcamp, vinyl, items in the mail, and the occasional livestream performance. . For a full list and description of these tiers visit the link in my bio. . This month’s feature is a new song called "Safety Matches" which I recorded in Tallinn, Estonia. This song is paired with a very special, custom made matchbox designed by @lake.anxiety.wilson who previously did the cover art for my album, You Are My Friend: The Songs of Mister Rogers. . This new year finds me living abroad and at the start of a new adventure in life. Joining my Patreon will allow you to follow along, and support me and my work during this period. Being a musician during the pandemic has come with its host of obstacles, but it has also created the opportunity to consider new ways of sharing my music, and my process with the world. In other words, if you are interested in me and my work, this is the best time and the best way to take a closer look and invest in what I do. . Patreon will not be a replacement method for releasing my commercial albums. I will always release those through my own label, H.P. Johnson Presents. Rather, this will be a means of allowing my listeners the ability to support the continuation of my endeavors, wherever they may take me. . As ever, I am grateful for all of your support through the years, especially now. . Thank you for considering. Have a great day. . - Daniel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #danielknox #hpjp #singersongwriter #chicago #tbilisi #portugal #porto #uk #london #jarviscocker #davidlynch #musicboxtheatre #bicpens #springfieldillinois #patreon (at DK Music) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYYuRuEqDZb/?utm_medium=tumblr
