Lol, I was quite surprised when I saw it when I landed too.
It was like looking into the future...

Ed, that's my Modutrak "Techny" module you were standing on when you took that opening shot on Techny road!
From a "few" years ago when A20 controlled the junction


You would have been standing by the relay cabinet just above the crossover. Now I am going to have to put a N scale railfan taking pictures there and cal him Ed!!!!!

Ed:  In my opinion, "Weekend" is the part of the week after you've finished working.  So, yes, if your workweek doesn't include Monday, that's the weekend.

For another take, at my job, they buy European calendars.  The weeks start on Monday and end on Sunday.  So, since we consider the first and last days of the calendar week to be the weekend, Monday would be part of the weekend, according to that calendar.  However, we still work by the American week...

Oh man, I love it.

You'll need a blue Hyundai Elantra with a New York license plate and a dude with a cell phone... This'll get you started.

Forgive me Ed.

I just find this image hauntingly disturbing, somehow.

Its like, I dunno, the one time you say to yourself "I'll go hang out at the platform for a minute - see what trains are passing". Then there's this "railfan"... ya know. He never will quite leave you alone... ya know...

Again, I ask your forgiveness Ed.  ;)

Lol. I'm amused by that.

Luckily, because of the temperature and time, those actual railfans who do that weren't present.

I find that true with all of Eds's selfies, and with most selfies in general).  But as long as Ed doesn't do a "duck face" - I can deal with them. Otherwise what is seen cannot be unseen.  :facepalm:
