B724570 seen here at Swithland on the Great Central Railway on the 2nd April 2017 is a diagram 1/050 12 ton, five plank “shocbar” open wagon. It was one of one thousand, two hundred and forty nine wagons built to diagram 1/050 in four batches between 1953 and 1957. B724570 is from the second batch of four hundred wagons (lot 2776) built at Derby in 1956. Shoc wagons in theory provided greater protection to the load from shunting activities and traffic use in unfitted trains. This was achieved by allowing the body to move in relationship to the underframe with the movement being controlled by a series of springs. It was also fitted with a bar to support a wagon sheet which is now missing. Consequently these opens were known as “shocbar”.
my dad, who resided at greenwells at the time, leading the donkey ride. at a garden fete, during the 2nd world war. don't know who the girls are in highland regalia, my dad now reckons they were from a highland dancing school in (gala) galashiels, or who the two soldiers are, it was mostly seaforth highlanders, and black watch stationed in the area. or if they even survived the war. the fete was held at eildon hall one of the homes of the duke of buccleuch, near newtown st.boswells it would be around 1943, I also have no idea why this event was held, could have been to raise money for the war effort. st.boswells, Scottish borders, Roxburghshire, Scotland.

"Second Presbyterian Church is one of Chicago's architectural gems. Architect James Renwick designed the Gothic Revival exterior and Howard Van Doren Shaw and Frederic Clay Bartlett redesigned the interior in the Arts and Crafts taste. In addition to the original interior fixtures and murals, memorial windows made by William Morris & Company, Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company, Tiffany Studios, Church Glass & Decorating Company, McCully & Miles, and Louis J. Millet enhance the Church's interior. In 2013, Second Presbyterian Church was designated a National Historic Landmark in recognition of its Arts and Crafts interior."
It is a beautiful, cold, morning in Drumnadrochit with a slight inversion sitting over Loch Ness and frost clinging to the shadows in the glen.

The next morning at Punalu'u. The tide makes drastic changes in the shoreline. Each hour it looks different here. It's nice to find a secluded place anywhere these days.
