The south of #Russia is left without #fuel, as 4 #refineries in #Samara that supply it were destroyed, and last night a #railway route was also cut in two places.

About 100 years ago the ancient forest in this part of Vancouver Island was a mixed stand of conifers and deciduous trees that had grown up after a massive fire in the late 1600s. Most trees were Douglas Firs, 200+ years old. It was an even-aged stand on the relatively flat North Georgia Plain. A “logger’s paradise. This part of that logger’s paradise was laid out by engineers for yarding. The forest was subdivided by straight railway grades approximately 2000’ apart. The forest was felled. The logs yarded to the railside, loaded onto flatcars, and hauled by steam locomotives to the “beach.” There the logs were dumped into the ocean and boomed up for towing to mills on the Fraser River.
This view is of the old main railway line, now a recreational trail. The forest that has grown up around it is about 100 years old. It’s a mix of deciduous and Douglas Fir trees.

Changing trains to go (partly) back the way I've just come (because ScotRail made a mess of the previously fine connection times)

It's the 200th anniversary of the passenger railway this year - as the UK's Stockton & Darlington Railway started operation in 1825. Some fun facts on the 'About' page about the railways then and now:

From the shadows into light.

For those interested in such things, here is an animation showing timetabled passenger train activity in 10 minutes slices on the British rail network, for the week commencing Monday 18 August 2025. With circle area proportional to number of trains per hour at that location.

I like the international aspect albeit the intermediate calling points are rather limited.
