I came across the Motor Transport Museum in Campo CA on the internet and had to check it out. I was in texture heaven. Swimming in rusty metal and wonderful colors. I didn't even realize it was 103 outside until I got home and saw the sunburn :) I now have a few more additions to my auto parts album.

#HappyBirthdayAmtrak    

In Transportation History, +Amtrak was born today on 5/1/1971.  We week later I came into the world. Too this day I tell my mom that I was born a week too late. However, I've always felt a "kinship" to Amtrak ever since my first ride from San Diego to LA in 1976.

Amtrak provides rail passenger service in the US including the Accela service in the Northeast Corridor and long-distance service on many routes.

May 11, 2013 Amtrak will celebrate National Train Day 2013. Around the country many towns will be having railroad based activities that Day and several major cities will have displays of Amtrak equipment.

+TransportTuesday had a great bunch of submissions this week coming in from around the world. #TransportTuesday  was trending much of the day which is always nice to see.

As usual, I'm taking the time to share a few shots which I really enjoyed from this weeks submissions.

1) +Sam Rider (See below) Sam brings a lot of WWII reenactment shots to TransportTuesday including this great one below. I told Sam it reminded me so much of the OWI "Rosie the Riveter" shots which became so famous during that era.

2) +Shelly Gunderson https://plus.google.com/u/0/105731881257142821581/posts/4ArVbU2XWsN Shelly's processing of the Galloping Goose made this one even more special.

Chicago's Green Line passing through the tube that the celebrated Dutch architect Rem Kolhaas built over the Tribune McCormick Campus Center of the Illinois Institute of Technology.  The tube dampens the sound of the train so as not to disturb activities in the center below it.

+TransportTuesday is on track for another week of great photography of transportation from around the world. It's always fun to see what our loyal contributors come up with each week. Don't forget, I'll pick a few of them to reshare on Wednesday as my "Curator Picks"

Classic Racer

Classic car shows are a lot of fun, but they can be a challenge to shoot. There's always a reflection from another car or someone hovering over your subject as you shoot.

I tried a few angles for this shot and finally settled on this one.  The owner of this car wasn't nearby so I can't say what make or year this car is.  Perhaps someone out there can offer some help.

For the details:
Canon 5DMKII Sigma 35 1.4 @ f/1.4 1/200 ISO 1000.  The B&W conversion was done using Topaz B&W effects 2.  I have a few reviews in the pipeline, but hope to write that up soon.

Maybe today, on #transporttuesday  +TransportTuesday, one of you can beat my total!

Don't let the red light stop YOU

A friendly reminder that +TransportTuesday  #transporttuesday  is just around the corner this week.

We're giving you the GREEN light as always to share your favorite transport related shots with all the TT fans =)

Why not look for something that is "related" to transport in someway even if it doesn't have the transport itself in it. (aka infrastructure) or maybe your shot highlights some form of transport that we've never thought of, even better =)

The friendly team will be ready Tuesday for your shots.

Morning everyone!  This is another of the shots I got of a Norfolk Southern train in Pennsylvania a couple of weeks ago.  I always liked their logo with the rearing horse on it.  This is 20 miles south of Carlisle, PA on a main that runs up from Morgantown to Harrisburg.  Hope you enjoy the image and have a good day!

This is one of the old style street cars that the city of Toronto's Transit Commission still owns.  They are chartered out for parties or parades when the weather is nicer out.  I managed to run across this while out on my bike.  Lucky for me my cell phone was handy for me to snap a shot before it receded off into the distance.  This car is from around the 1920's.  for +TransportTuesday curated by +Gene Bowker +Joe Paul  +Michael Earley and +Annie Irving
