Es wird nicht mehr lange dauern, bis der Highfly über die Perleberger Brücke seiner Leichtigkeit durch die Neubauten der sog. "Europacity" beraubt sein wird. Als Lokführer muss es ein tolles Gefühl sein, sich aus dem Berliner Hauptbahnhof von Niveau -3 nach anderhalb Kilometern auf Niveau +2 auf den Ferngleisen des Rings einzufädeln und links und rechts nur den Himmel zu sehen....
(Gestern noch ein Lehrvideo geschaut, in dem es hieß: Postion zwischen den Aufnahmen wechseln! Und, was mach ich? Seh nicht, dass links der Oberleitungsmast pixelgenau mit dem Baukran fluchtet! Herrje....)

At 148 studs long, the ST-21 R-Fighter is 14% longer than SHIPs in the ST-20 series, thanks to its massive railgun. The ST-21 is the definition of a "glass cannon": While a fully-charged shot from its railgun exceeds the output of most battleship cannons, it only has minimal armor in order to make the fighter as light and fast as possible.
This SHIP was heavily inspired by the player ship designs from the R-TYPE series, although not a direct copy of any particular one, hence the name "Love Letter". It feels appropriate, given the funky names some R-Fighters have (what kind of name is Delicatessen?). Also, I used the printed 1x2 postcard/letter tiles as little details in a couple places (not visible in this shot), so it sorta works on multiple levels.
This three-roomed house was built in 1826 for the collector of tolls at High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, on the Oxford to London road.
Constructed of locally-made bricks, it has a slate roof and a central chimney stack. Its "Gothick' features include pointed arches over the windows and door, and the castellations on the top of the walls. Above the door is the clock, installed in 1826. The front room is angled to give the toll keeper maximum visibility up and down the roud.
Despite its small size the house was occupied by a family of five in 1841. It has been furnished as it may have been in the 1860s when it was last used for collecting tolls.
Toll keepers were very unpopular and there are many reports of keepers being strapped to their gate while robbers ransacked the house. The High Wycombe Toll House is secured with iron bars on the windows and folding shutters. The building was dismantled by volunteers in 1977-78, and re-erected at Chiltern Open Air Museum between 1983 and 1991 by Lovell Construction and Taylor Woodrow apprentices, and by volunteers.
The Toll Gates are reproductions based on local examples, and made of softwood with oak posts. The milestone erected by the side of the road near the Toll House was originally on the Hatfield to Reading Turnpike. The inscription reads: 29 READING, HATFIELD 21; R WORTH 5; AMERSHAM 3.
The Chiltern Open Air Museum (COAM), nestled in the heart of Buckinghamshire, offers a unique glimpse into the rural life of the Chilterns. This museum is not just a collection of static exhibits; it's a dynamic space where history is brought to life. Visitors can explore over 30 reconstructed historic buildings, each telling a story from a different era, from Iron Age roundhouses to a 1940s prefab. The museum also hosts a variety of events throughout the year, such as living history days, craft demonstrations, and seasonal festivals, providing an immersive experience for all ages. With its extensive site covering 18 hectares, including a working historic farm and traditional gardens, the museum provides a rich educational experience as well as a peaceful retreat into nature.
..martedì, in moto, avevo il lettore mp3 e ascoltavo la musica...come in ogni "mio" cd, così anche nel lettore c'è Russians di Sting che mi accompagna dal lontano 1985...ne ho sempre amato la musicalità e le parole...è una di quelle canzoni che ho imparato presto, pur non conoscendo l'inglese (allora...anche oggi non lo conosco :P)...ogni volta che la ascolto vado in estasi e comincio a guardare il mondo con occhi sempre diversi...sono anni che tutti denunciamo le false verità che i politici del mondo ci raccontano...sono anni che tutti denunciamo quei conflitti che portano solo dolore...allora perchè continuiamo a fare guerre ingiuste? Nel mondo ci sono moltissimi conflitti dettati da malesseri sociali, politici, razziali...ma l'uomo non si stancherà mai di fare la guerra?
E in tutto questo, l'uscita di sicurezza dov'è?
All'inizio del 2008 erano in corso 27 conflitti:

In Europa e in America, c'è un crescendo d'isteria
Condizionato in risposta alle minacce
Dei retorici discorsi
Come posso salvare il mio piccolo ragazzo dal giocattolo di morte
Da ogni lato dello schieramento politico
Condividiamo la stessa biologia
A dispetto dell'ideologia
Credimi quando te lo dico
Spero che anche i .... i loro bambini
Non c'è nessuna cosa come una guerra da vincere
È una bugia in cui non ci crediamo più
Looking down my little valley from the back door step this morning..
We've had very little rain as usual through Winter, but some heavy fogs gather here, overnight into dawn.
This moisture must be enough to kick-start the flowering trees, which are now putting on their Springtime show all around town.
These purple ones are Jacarandas, very hardy and native to South Africa, they do really well here, and I reckon we've adopted them as our own a long time ago, as they appear in some early aussie paintings..
They're so popular and there's many very old ones here.
One of my favourite early australian paintings:

Aus dem "Steglitzer Kreisel" wird nun der "ÜBerlin Tower". Dazu wurde die schreckliche braune Sparkassen-Architektur der 70'er Jahre runtergerissen. Der aktuelle Anblick gehört in meine Kategorie "Das glaubt uns in zwanzig Jahre niemand mehr".
Das kleine Türmchen links gehört zum ehemaligen Kaufhaus Feidt, dem ersten mehrstöckigen Warenhaus in Steglitz. Nach dem Krieg residierte hier wenige Jahre die Steglitzer Filiale von Wertheim. Glaubt heute auch niemand mehr, ist aber so....

Astoria Railroad Preservation Association
2022 Open House
September 18
Astoria, Oregon
-------------------------------------
Whatever this huge contraption is, it's definitely not a juicer. It must be there to machine parts for the locomotive.
-------------------------------------
Locomotive No. 21 was built in 1925 by Baldwin Locomotive Works for the Santa Maria Valley Railroad in southern California.
For 37 years, it pulled loads of sugar beets, vegetables and petroleum products along the 36-mile rail line. It also became the "pet" engine of the railroad's owner, Capt. G. Allen Hancock, a West Coast financier who helped bankroll agriculture in the valley during the 1900s and had a passion for putting himself at the throttle.
The 81-ton locomotive became a favorite on the railroad for both its domineering presence on the track and its famous engineer. The renown, steam-driven workhorse of the Santa Maria Valley Railroad was retired in 1962.
Crews dismantled the most famous engine of the SMV railroad and trucked it to Snoqualmie, Wash where a railroad preservation group planned to place it into excursion service. That plan never materialized and for over a decade, #21 rested disassembled under . . . alder trees.
Railroad buffs in Clatsop County joined forces in 1990, forming the Astoria Railroad Preservation Association. The first major order of business was to find a steam engine to restore and run along the Astoria rail line.
After combing trade journals and cruising the Pacific Northwest, word finally came that the No. 21 engine from the old Santa Maria Valley Railroad was sitting dormant in Washington. By then the engine had changed hands several times and was owned by the Puget Sound Historic Railroad Association.
The ARPA bought the locomotive with $27,000 in community donations and brought the locomotive to Astoria piece by piece in 1991. The disassembled locomotive was stripped, sandblasted, cleaned and painted with primer by volunteers in their spare time.
The renovation of the engine is still under way as crews work to restore it to the same working condition as when it rolled off the Baldwin lines in 1925.
New life is being breathed into famous No. 21 from southern California. Once it roars back to life, only it's name will be different: the Astoria and Columbia River Railroad No. 21.
R E S T O R A T I O N
The ARPA plans to not only restore engine #21 to operating condition, but to rebuild it to the same condition as when it departed the Baldwin shops in 1925. It's a tall order, no doubt, but we believe we have the expertise and the support to make it happen.
With our strong desire to maintain historical accuracy, we are making every effort to return No. 21 to the same configuration and appearance that it had while it chugged along the tracks during its storied career.
That means if the backup light is missing, for example, we'll try to find an original to replace it. If that's impossible, we'll study photos, try to obtain original blueprints and find similar lights made by Baldwin that closely resemble the original piece. We won't simply install a modern headlight in the name of convenience - time and money will not be an excuse to compromise historical integrity.
The restoration has been taking place in several locations. Most of the work has been on property owned by the Port of Astoria. Since November 1998, we've been working in the former Bartlett Repair Shop, the building is on loan to the ARPA until a buyer is found.
The response to our project so far has been positive. The public has been invited to get a first-hand look at the work we're doing - essentially a peek at how the old railroad shops used to operate back in the steam era. (The Columbia River Maritime Museum had enormous success in using a similar concept during reconstruction of an early salmon gillnet boat for display.)
We hope to build a new home for our restoration work, constructed to represent an engine house of the 1920s and include an interpretive museum and a shelter for the locomotive.
O P E R A T I O N
Once locomotive No. 21 is restored, the ARPA plans to run it for excursions along the A-line, which includes tracks owned by the City of Astoria and Portland & Western. We hope the trips will educate the public on both the labors and the grandeur of the bigone era of steam-train travel.
We've already contacted the railroads' engineering departments to make sure that a locomotive the size of No. 21 will be allowed to operate on this line. By inviting Portland & Western to inspect the restoration and under what ARPA is capable of, we think it will be easier to get approval to run our train on the tracks.
We plan to run #21 excursions of a hour and a half duration from the Astoria Depot east. The scenic run jogs along the Columbia River crossing drawbridges and a number of trestles. We are planning a limited number of excursions between Astoria and Portland during special events and festivals, including the Greater Astoria Seafood Festival, the Astoria Regatta, and the Portland Rose Festival. Each of these events draws thousands of visitors to our area. During weekends in the summer, we hope to operate dinner trains between Astoria and Clatskanie, about 40 miles upriver.
When it's not operating, No. 21 will be displayed in our engine house. Because of expected costs (tariffs, insurance, operation, etc.), we will probably need to run at near-capacity to remain solvent. With that in mind, we intend to initially operate on a limited schedule until demand warrants expansion. But, with the charm and character of Astoria and its new locomotive, we expect our operation to be quickly popular and our hours of operation will rise to meet that demand.
