I know a Train-Head when I encounter one! 🙂

If those locomotives were built with the same care and quality as the cars of the era then I’m sure they lasted for a very long time.

Yeah, those are first-generation diesel locos from the 1950’s, and the pix is dated 1979.

Those are ALCO diesels, from the American Locomotive Co (ALCO) and were famous for their black smoke when accelerating… not seen in this pix.  I remember as a child seeing this type going by on the local railroad, and I could always tell the ALCOs by the peculiar steel rattle the engines made… like a bad valve job on your car!

Those look like they were built during America’s Golden Age … and never replaced!

More than that. These people need to be held legally accountable for willful malice. They are giving themselves raises while bribing politicians. These are big raises like for 250K to 800K while holding people hostage both financially and while forcing people to  to inject poison. Sounds a bit satanic to me.

Judas Luciferr, I know makes me wonder if he changed his name to that or raised by parents giving him that name. I wonder if he has Satanic rituals at night studying ways to kill people.

Torex strikes deal with local group blocking access to El Limon-Guajes mine

TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – Canadian gold producer Torex Gold has reached an agreement with local families blocking access to the El Limon-Guajes (ELG) mine, in Mexico, for more than a week, saying operations will be restarted during the night shift on Thursday. Less than a week after declaring commercial production, Torex was forced last week Monday to temporarily suspend operations at the ELG operation, located in the Guerrero Gold Belt, south-west of Mexico City, reporting that an illegal blockade was started by three families demanding payments for alleged environmental damages. “The transition from the high levels of activity during construction to the lower levels required during operations, is challenging for all stakeholders. One of the more difficult challenges is re-setting expectations as to what the company can and cannot do to improve the lives of community members that do not have an employment or contractual relationship with the company. “This ‘re-setting of expectations’ is not completed yet, but a process has been established to move toward that understanding,” explained Torex president and CEO Fred Stanford.

China Gold Fix to create greater price transparency

China is set to extend its influence in the gold market with the launch of a highly anticipated yuan-denominated gold fix on April 19.

“As the largest producer and consumer of gold, it is only logical that they develop the infrastructure to trade, price and provide liquidity for gold in their own currency,” said John Butler, vice president and head of wealth services at GoldMoney.

Seamus Donoghue, chief executive officer of Singapore-based Allocated Bullion Solutions said the gold fix also provides the People’s Bank of China with the capability to control and stabilise the gold price.

Like the London Gold Fix, the Shanghai Gold Exchange’s (SGE) benchmark price will be set twice per business day and both local and foreign banks will be allowed to trade the contract. It is understood that clients of foreign banks will be allowed to trade anonymously whereas those of domestic banks will not enjoy the same privilege. In China, the initial price for the first auction will be determined by a ‘trimmed arithmetic average of price-setting members’ inputs’ whereas the London auctions kick off using a price selected by an independent chairperson, Donoghue said.

US Retail Sales Tumble Into Recession Territory Driven By Auto Sales Plunge

Posted by ipso facto @ 10:07 on April 13, 2016  

After stumbling sideways around unch MoM for 3 months, US retail sales tumbled 0.3% in March (considerably worse than the 0.1% MoM gain expected) confirming BofA’s credit card data as we warned. March’s print is practically the weakest month since Feb 2015 and is unlikely to get much better given the dismally weak start to April, as we noted here. After 3 months of low-base bounce in YoY retail sales, March saw it collapse back to just 1.7% YoY – deep in recession territory.

Olivier Blanchard eyes ugly ‘end game’ for Japan on debt spiral

Posted by Farmboy @ 8:19 on April 13, 2016  

Japan is heading for a full-blown solvency crisis as the country runs out of local investors and may ultimately be forced to inflate away its debt in a desperate end-game, one of the world’s most influential economists has warned.

Olivier Blanchard, former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund, said zero interest rates have disguised the underlying danger posed by Japan’s public debt, likely to reach 250pc of GDP this year and spiralling upwards on an unsustainable trajectory. ”

Comment : I take it that since the U.S. is not quite reached the 100 % level that the paper shell/cover-up games have a ways to go ??? Meanwhile back in reality, the big boys like China & Russia continue to seek the true wealth of the ages by the ton.
