These shots are for an LX7 review which you can see by clicking here.
I got a powerful little "enthusiast" camera called the Panasonic DMC-LX7. Can it do what my micro four thirds cameras and my previous APS-C cameras did? I took it around the steel mill where I work and also shot in an old pumphouse on the property that's been abandoned for 50 years. I shot both straight single-shot and some 3 shot brackets that I turned into HDR. This camera did a GREAT job on this material -- and it fits in my pocket! (Tightly, lol)
Panasonic DMC-LX7 camera with it's fixed Leica designed lens that is 24-90mm equivalent and f/1.4-2.3

Hull Dairycoates (50B) allocated Thompson class B16/3 (rebuilt of Raven class B16) 4-6-0 61472 pictured taking water outside the old roundhouse at York South shed after working into York with the SSO 11:10 Hull to Glasgow prior to working back to Hull with another train - 03/08/1963.
I believe that 61472 was the last B16 to remain in traffic. It was withdrawn from 50B on 20/04/1964 and was scrapped by Draper's (Hull) week commencing 09/11/1964.

Nadat er een loczug met 3 locomotieven richting Domodossola reed was de verwachting dat de 2 vertraagde shuttles daar wel op zouden moeten wachten. Het is ongeveer een halfuur naar Domo vanuit Baveno dus zou het wel minimaal 1,5 uur moeten duren voor ze terug kwamen. Dat klopte precies want 1,5 na passage van de loczug kwam de 484 007 de bocht door met een fraaie Hupactrein naar Gallarate aan de haak.

The same Peppercorn Pacific, 60128 "Bongrace", is captured later the same day, but this time heading south with an up ECML express - 03/08/1963.
It's rather odd, but "Bongrace" just seems to have a solitary white headlamp above it left hand buffer.

Kettering (15B) depot's BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 92106 approaches Bristol Temple Meads station from the north in charge of M221 06:40 Leicester to Paignton - 03/08/1957.
Terry Larkham (on the British Railways Yahoo! group) tells me:
"This was the 06:40 Leicester to Paignton on August 3rd 1957, the first time I saw a 9F on an express passenger train. It returned north with the booked working, 10:58 Paignton to Nottingham. A second 9F (92049 of Saltley) hauled what I believe was the 12:00 Leeds to Bristol relief later that day. From 1957 onwards 9F hauled Class A passenger trains were commonplace on Summer Saturdays between Birmingham and Bristol."

Tussen 17 juli en 16 augustus wordt er in 2021 spoor vernieuwd op het Muzenviaduct en door deze werkzaamheden kan er ook geklust worden bij het Beatrixkwartier en in Tramtunnel Grote Marktstraat.
Omdat de aorta van het tramnet er uit ligt worden lijnen 2, 3, 4 en 6 geknipt. Aan de zuidkant rijden de trams onder de lijnen 2a, 3a, 4a en 6a hun eigen route tot aan de Brouwersgracht en gaan dan bovenlangs een rondje centrum doen om bij het CS te komen. Lijnen 3a en 4a krijgen ook Avenio als materieel. Voor lijn 4 is dat voor het eerst.
Aan de andere kant van CS rijden lijnen 2b en 6b met GTL en gaan bij Laan van NOI over in elkaar. RandstadRail lijnen 3b en 4b rijden vanaf Zoetermeer tot Laan van NOI.
Tussen Laan van NOI en CS rijdt een buslijn 62 om de reizigers te vervoeren. Om toch nog wat Citadis materieel te laten rijden wordt lijn 9 voorzien van de RandstadRail trams.
De 4070 naast de 4005 wachtend op de volgende rit.

Canon NFD 35-70mm f3.5-4.5
This is the worst and cheapest lens I've got actually but... it takes pictures after all ;D
Weird colours, lack of contrast, exaggerated barrel distortion, soft on the edges on the entire aperture range... not specially accurate.
