Driving on Interstate 10 from Fort Stockton, TX to El Paso
I-10 enters Texas northwest of El Paso near Anthony and travels southward, concurrent with US 85 and US 180. US 85 splits off in West El Paso at exit 13 (Sunland Park Drive, Paisano Drive), where US 85 heads south on Paisano Drive, through downtown El Paso, and ends at the Stanton Street Bridge and the border with Mexico via local streets. As of Summer 2016, Interstate 10 through El Paso is undergoing a major construction project, which seeks to link North/South Desert Boulevard (the westside frontage roads) with Gateway East and Gateway West (the central and eastside frontage roads). Several miles of frontage road are being built where none previously existed. I-10/US 180 continues turning to the east towards downtown El Paso. I-10 then meets I-110 and US 54 (the Patriot Freeway, or North–South Freeway) in a complex, three-level interchange referred to by locals as the Spaghetti Bowl. I-10 and US 180 diverge east of downtown at exit 23B (Paisano Drive) as US 180 heads off to the northeast (joining US 62 and Paisano Drive northbound) and I-10 to the southeast. I-10's frontage road system is called Desert Boulevard in West El Paso, and Gateway Boulevard in Central and East El Paso. Of these, Gateway East Boulevard is the longest, extending continuously for roughly 22 miles (35 km). Heading towards Tornillo and Fabens, I-10 turns to the southeast and begins to parallel the Rio Grande and Mexican border for approximately 60 miles
I-10 leaves the Rio Grande with a primarily eastward heading. Just east of Kent, the western terminus of I-20 intersects with I-10. I-20 heads northeast towards the Dallas-Fort Worth area and I-10 continues to head east. US 67 runs concurrently with I-10 for a stretch and the La Entrada al Pacifico trade corridor is a part of this stretch of I-10. Near Junction, I-10 begins a more southeastwardly course as it heads toward the San Antonio metropolitan area. Near Comfort, I-10 and US 87 begin a concurrency that carries on into San Antonio.
Due to I-10 crossing some of the most rural and sparsely inhabited parts of the United States, notably the Trans-Pecos Region it has several unique features that differentiate it from other Interstate Highways. I-10 is one of the very few Interstates that has at-grade intersections (roads that intersect it at a 90-degree angle, as opposed to an overpass or underpass with on and off ramps). These are private access roads (mostly from large ranches) which occur over a limited stretch in western Texas.

10 Facts Movie Theaters Don't Want You to Know
We all love movie theaters for the special feeling they give with fantastic special effects, complete sound immersion and the taste of popcorn. Would you still love them just as much if you found out their secrets movie theater owners don’t want you to know? We’re going to unveil 10 movie theater secrets.
In cinemas, many people can’t always keep their feelings to themselves and that’s normal. For example, a movie about cannibals called Raw appeared to be too hard to watch for a couple of visitors at The Toronto International Film Festival in 2016. The people fainted and one of them hit his head badly during the fall.
Digital devices can do everything on their own, and there are more automatic processes at a cinema than there were during the previous century.
Keep it in mind that in case there are some problems with a projector (the image is blurred, not centered, etc.), you’ll have to stand up and go notify a staff member in the lobby.
20% of the population, including Johnny Depp himself, simply can’t perceive those three dimensions. Harvard Medical School neurobiology professor Dr. Margaret S. Livingstone explains it could be due to stereo-blindness when eyes can’t see in 3D because of the way they are aligned.
If you love cleanliness that much, try to visit the cinema in the morning and avoid going there on Friday and Saturday nights when a lot of other people go out to the movies.

SUMMARY
-Theaters have to pay a lot to film studios in the first two months of distribution so they have to make their money out of concession.
-The cinema staff members who manage to prevent movie theft get a $500 prize.
-The younger generations buy a ticket when two movies start simultaneously, and one of them is not R-rated.
-A movie about cannibals called Raw appeared to be too hard to watch for a couple of visitors at The Toronto International Film Festival in 2016. The people fainted and one of them hit his head badly during the fall.
-One couple stuffed a truckload of food into an infant’s car seat and went to watch a movie. A girl from put some pasta into zip-lock bags and brought them into the cinema with her.
-3D glasses give you an illusion of being inside a movie and it drives your visual analyzer crazy.
-Even though a movie projector has to be programmed during the day, there’s nobody sitting in the booth when you watch a movie.
-A short break between two movies is not enough time for a cinema staff to thoroughly clean up a theater.
-Someone who loves to fight will always find a reason to do so. It could be that someone took someone else’s parking place, they talked on the phone during the movie, or someone is chomping too loudly.
-Thanks to security cameras, movie theater staff can spot and kick out couples that go too far on their “loveseats”.

BNSF morning alarm, Huntsville, Al
I had to get up extremely early to take my Dad to the airport one Sunday morning. On my way there, and back, I saw a BNSF coal train parked at Elko. Conventional logic said it must be headed this way since 2 engines were pointed East, and 1 pointed West I waited a good 10-15 minutes, and then this one rolled through.

SD70MAC #9554 (Executive unit)

ES44AC #6022
Later that day, a group of friends wanted to go train watching. I setup back on Cleveland avenue and manage to catch a Westbound coal train carrying another Executive unit. The wind, however, blew my phone off its perch and I missed the front of the train. Managed to set it back up and catch a pair of SD70ACe's on the tail of the train.

(Don't try this at home :))
Keeping pace with an empty flatcar is deceptively TOUGH .. This BNSF freighter was going around 60-70 M/h (100-110 km.hr), and the pace had me white-knuckled as I shot,
NS 056 (Loaded Military Train) in Columbia & Hopkins w/ BNSF D9W Power
Here's a video of NS military train 056 heading eastbound under the Hampton Street overpass, then through the Hopkins area on the SC-Line with a pair of BNSF D9Ws in the H2 scheme pulling 65 loaded flat cars of military equipment heading overseas. Got a heads up about this train coming up on the Piedmont main, so I kept an ear out on the Spartanburg radio feed to hear them get a TA to come down the W-Line. After being fixed up all the way into Columbia, I came down around the ETA and waited to get them in the ditch. After catching them coming into Columbia, I waited for the train to change crews at the Andrews Yard office before going to Hopkins to catch this at speed. Was nice to finally get a loaded military train after all this time, and this would be the first of many that would run to the holy city. As always, enjoy the video!

(**WARNING GRAPHIC**) Woman gets hit by a speeding Metra train led by BN EMD E9 # 9912 (Traingirl)
At around 5:53 p.m. on August 26, 1991, Mary T. Wojtyla, 41, of Chicago, was walking with her lawyer across the tracks at the Fairview Avenue grade crossing in Downers Grove, directly in front of a westbound train that was stopped at the Metra station. Apparently distracted by ongoing divorce proceedings, she crossed the center track and was struck by westbound Burlington Northern EMD E9 locomotive 9912 pulling a Racetrack express train, estimated to be traveling at 60 miles per hour (97 km/h). Wojtyla was killed instantly; her lawyer saw the oncoming train and was not struck. The accident delayed between 12,000 and 15,000 commuters on the Burlington Northern line for more than an hour. Trains were further delayed when Downers Grove police ordered the engineer to back up the train in order to re-enact the incident. According to an account in the Downers Grove Reporter, the engineer was so seriously affected by the re-enactment, where he had to pass by the dead body still on the tracks, he was unable to continue and had to be relieved of his duties. A railfan captured Wojtyla being struck by the train. He was apparently filming at the station to film the last day of one the EMD E9 locomotives. The railfan was traumatised by the incident as Mary's body flew across and knocked the railfan and his camcorder (which was on a tripod) to the ground. The video, dubbed Traingirl, has been shown with the impact edited out at many Operation Lifesaver events, and unedited on shock site web sites and YouTube. A wrongful death lawsuit brought by Wojtyla's estate was dismissed in 1996.
CSX Z368-06 (NS P65) w/ KCS SD70MAC trailing
After catching 155 in Oak Grove, I went back into Columbia to see what else I could catch. I saw P65 sitting at Assembly Street with a KCS Belle trailing, so I decided to do something different and head up to Irmo to catch P65 (running as CSX Z368-06) instead of sticking around in Columbia. I beat him with over 40 minutes to spare. This was shot near an Advance Auto Parts store on St. Andrews Road. Enjoy the video!
