Railstream Webcam Highlights, Part 1

NOKL 550001 with the 'Julius Pringle' - October 28

My highlight-reel images from the very end of October and November, 2022, showing Railstream webcam images from Geddes Street level crossing (actually anything but level when driving over it!) over CN's Kingston Subdivision in Belleville, ON. (All images courtesy Railstream, LLC.) It's not as if I observed every train, maybe only 2% of November's trains. But there were enough oddities, plus exceptional cars and engines that led me to saving and sharing them in this post. The number of trespassers using the mainline as a sidewalk is pretty alarming. Usually dark clothing, head down, between the rails, against the current of traffic, carrying a skateboard, perhaps even earbuds in!

Running extra...

Huge wow factor. Sailor, book customer and Legomaster Gilles Lessard has created an amazing 'Coke-can' covered hopper made of Lego. I had to look twice. Then I had to look twice more. See Gilles' amazing creative talent! Gilles kindly sent some links: a massive event in Germany; a Lego gathering in Chicago' and a real black beauty!

My Lego technical ability began with the seemingly prehistoric Shell tank truck and fire truck! Gilles kindly added...It is mostly called L-gauge (lego gauge) and most people build to the scale of around 1:48, or 8-wide, referring to 8 studs being 10 feet. The Lego minifigure isn't the most anatomically accurate thing therefore people play with the scale to something that feels right and not necessarily 100% to scale.
