Two bicyclists pass by as Iowa Interstate train SASI (South Amana, Iowa – Silvis, Illionis) rolls off the Government Bridge onto Arsenal Island in Rock Island, Illinois. Leading this June 6, 2020 afternoon is ES44AC 513, painted as a tribute to the late Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad that once operated where this train is seen.

Brian Carlson, of Rolling Meadows, Illinois, writes that the “unprecedented pause” of 2020 has allowed him to work from home, slow down, and consider his future. “With the arrival of warmer weather, I was feeling the itch to get out and made three photographic expeditions within a few hours’ drive from home. While I haven’t been able to go on any multi-day, multi-state travel extravaganzas in 2020, this welcomed pause has given me the ability to get caught up on nearly everything else…and the time to ponder where I want to go and what I want to see next.”
