September 2017 — Abandoned trains in Belgium.
September 2017 — A decommissioned SNCB/NMBS Autorail Série 400, unit no. 4001, rests abandoned on a disused siding near Charleroi, Belgium. Built in the early 1950s by BN (La Brugeoise et Nivelles), these diesel multiple units were among Belgium’s first post-war efforts to modernize regional and intercity rail travel, replacing steam on secondary lines. The streamlined design and two-tone red-and-cream livery reflected the optimism of that era’s industrial renewal. Decades later, this car’s faded paint, shattered windows, and rust-etched steel now mark the slow decay of a machine that once represented progress in Belgian transport history. The surrounding derelict depot underscores the decline of Wallonia’s railway manufacturing heritage.
September 2017 — A 118-meter-tall cooling tower stands amid overgrown trees at the former Monceau-sur-Sambre power station near Charleroi, Belgium. Constructed in the 1960s as part of a large coal-fired generating complex operated by Electrabel, the hyperboloid structure was engineered from reinforced concrete with vertical ribbing to support its weight and withstand wind pressure. The tower once cooled thousands of cubic meters of water per hour, discharging excess heat from the station’s turbines that supplied electricity to the industrial Walloon region. Following the plant’s closure in the early 2000s, the site has remained disused, its monumental scale and weathered surface now emblematic of Charleroi’s industrial decline and gradual environmental recovery.
September 2017 — Dense vegetation surrounds the concrete base of a decommissioned cooling tower in Charleroi, Belgium. The structure’s massive form rises from a patch of overgrowth and debris, where nature has begun reclaiming the once-industrial site. The cooling tower, part of an abandoned power plant complex, remains a reminder of the region’s post-industrial landscape and transition away from coal-era energy infrastructure.

September 2017 — The Cedar Lake Trail passes through the industrial district of St. Louis Park, Minnesota, illuminated here by the community’s water tower and nearby grain elevators. This segment of the trail follows a former railroad right-of-way once used by the Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway, which connected local industries to the region’s freight network. The corridor’s transformation into one of the country’s first bicycle “freeways” in the 1990s marked a major milestone in urban redevelopment and sustainable transportation planning. Once lined with lumberyards, steel fabricators, and mills, the area surrounding the trail reflects the industrial origins of St. Louis Park—a community that grew rapidly in the early 20th century due to its proximity to both Minneapolis and key rail junctions. The trail today bridges that history, offering cyclists and commuters a route through a landscape where freight trains, utility towers, and legacy industry remain active reminders of the city’s manufacturing past.

July 2017 — The rocky shoreline at Taconite Harbor, Minnesota, once served as a vital shipping point for the state’s iron mining industry. Built in the early 1950s by the Erie Mining Company, the harbor was designed to handle massive shipments of processed taconite pellets from the Mesabi Iron Range, transported by a private 74-mile rail line to the Lake Superior coast. The harbor’s docks, loading equipment, and nearby company housing formed a self-contained industrial community that thrived for decades. The surrounding area was developed during a period of postwar expansion when Minnesota’s natural resources fueled North American manufacturing. Taconite Harbor operated until the early 2000s, when global shifts in steel production led to its closure. What remains today—crumbling concrete piers, rusted transmission towers, and wind-swept rock formations—speaks to both the resilience of the landscape and the region’s deep connection to the rise and fall of heavy industry along the North Shore.
July 2017 — The rusting conveyor systems and storage bins of the former Great West Lumber Sawmill stand as remnants of Thunder Bay’s once-thriving forest industry. Established near the Lake Superior waterfront in the early 20th century, the mill was part of a vast network that processed and shipped lumber across North America. Its maze of steel ducts and conveyors once carried sawdust, chips, and milled timber, feeding the region’s economic boom. Today, the overgrown machinery reflects a post-industrial landscape—silent evidence of a city that helped fuel Canada’s forestry trade for generations.
July 2017 — Overgrown foliage surrounds the rusting stairway of the former Saskatchewan Pool B grain elevator in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Built in 1928 as part of the cooperative grain-handling network operated by the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool, the facility once stored and shipped millions of bushels of prairie wheat through the Lake Superior port. After decades of service under the Canadian Wheat Board era, the elevator was decommissioned and left to decay, its concrete silos and steel infrastructure now reclaimed by vegetation and time along the industrial waterfront.
July 2017 — A rusted steel door and staircase, now surrounded by dense summer growth, mark one of the remaining entrances to the Saskatchewan Pool B grain elevator in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Completed in 1928, this concrete complex was once among the largest cooperative elevators on the Lakehead, operated by the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool to handle prairie grain for export through the Great Lakes. After the decline of Canada’s centralized grain trade, the elevator was shuttered and abandoned, leaving its reinforced concrete and steel framework to slowly merge with the encroaching forest.
July 2017 — The remains of the Saskatchewan Pool B complex in Thunder Bay, Ontario, stand as a testament to the city’s industrial and maritime heritage. Once part of one of the largest grain handling networks on the Great Lakes, these structures were built in the early 20th century to serve the growing wheat trade flowing from the Canadian Prairies to Atlantic markets. Operations here slowed by the 1980s as newer, more efficient elevators replaced them. Today, the site lies silent along the waterfront, its silos and offices weathered by decades of Lake Superior winds.

July 2017 — Evening settles over the North Shore as the moon rises above Lake Superior, seen from Silver Creek Township, Minnesota. The calm waters reflect the fading light of dusk along a rugged basalt shoreline shaped by ancient lava flows nearly a billion years old. This stretch of coast, north of Two Harbors, remains one of the most geologically significant and least developed sections of Minnesota’s Superior shoreline—where forests of spruce and pine meet one of the world’s largest freshwater lakes under an endless sky.
July 2017 — The Theodore Hamm's Brewing Company was an American brewing company established in 1865 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Becoming the 5th "largest brewery" in the United States, Hamm's expanded with additional breweries that were acquired in other cities, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, and Baltimore.

July 2017 — Gold Run Park in Lead, South Dakota.
July 2017 — A long-forgotten mine entrance lies hidden in the forested slopes near the old gold mining town of Lead, South Dakota. The timber-framed portal, now partially collapsed and overtaken by vegetation, dates back to the late 19th or early 20th century—part of the Black Hills’ extensive network of small exploratory mines that sprang up after the 1876 gold rush. Streams like this one often run through or near these adits, carrying trace minerals that once drew prospectors to the region. Though many of these shafts were short-lived, they remain scattered reminders of South Dakota’s mining heritage and the rugged ambition that once fueled settlement in the Black Hills.
July 2017 — These towering concrete presidential busts sit hidden in the woods near Lead, South Dakota—remnants of a once-ambitious roadside attraction called Presidents Park. Conceived by Texas artist David Adickes and opened in 2003, the park showcased forty-three sculptures, each roughly 20 feet tall, depicting every U.S. president from Washington through George W. Bush. The attraction struggled to draw visitors and closed by 2010, leaving the massive heads stranded in the forest. Over time, nature reclaimed the site, with fallen branches, moss, and pine needles collecting around the statues. Today, the figures stand as haunting relics of early-2000s Americana tourism and the impermanence of grand civic art in private hands.

May 2017 — Built in the late 19th century, this rail tunnel sits near Bridal Veil Creek between Minneapolis and St. Paul and was constructed to accommodate expanding freight and passenger service for the Great Northern and Northern Pacific rail systems. Its heavy stone block walls and reinforced concrete beams reflect early railroad engineering adapted to the region’s steep ravines and waterways. The tunnel once served as a vital connector between Minneapolis rail yards and the Midway district, supporting grain, timber, and industrial shipments. Though still active today, it carries far lighter traffic and has become known for its weathered masonry, natural overgrowth, and layers of graffiti, showing where urban infrastructure meets forgotten industrial corridors.
May 2017 — Once part of the historic rail convergence near Westminster Junction in St. Paul, this corridor reflects the city’s long-standing role as a freight and passenger gateway for the Upper Midwest. The junction has served multiple carriers over the decades, supporting connections to Chicago, Minneapolis, and broader national rail networks. The single-track line in the foreground sits alongside a broader multi-track right-of-way, characteristic of the region’s use for heavy rail traffic, including grain, intermodal, and freight hauling. Dense summer vegetation lines the route, showing how rail corridors often double as preserved green space, even amid active infrastructure. The distant bridge marks the approach toward downtown St. Paul, where several major rail yards historically managed traffic between river, road, and rail transport.
