Locomotive History
One of a class of fifty six Type 1 0-6-0 diesel hydraulic (subsequently class 14) locomotives it was built at Swindon Works in 1964 for shunting and short trip freight duties. The locomotive is powered by a six cylinder Paxman Ventura 6YJXL engine producing 650bhp, connected to a Voith L217U hydraulic transmission and Hunslet gearbox. The axles were connected by coupling rods and driven by a jackshaft located under the cab, between the second and third axles. Initially allocated to Landore MPD in South Wales it was one of thirty three that transferred in January 1967 to Hull (Dairycoates) for North Eastern Region duties and was withdrawn from there in April 1968. D9516 was sold to the Stewarts and Lloyds Minerals Ltd. (subsequently part of the British Steel Corporation) for use on its extensive rail system connecting the local ironstone quarries round Corby (Northamptonshire) with the steelworks and arrived at Corby in November 1968. It was numbered 56 in the Corby fleet. With the subsequent contraction of the British steel industry and closure of the quarries and then Corby Steelworks itself in 1980 D9516 was once again surplus to requirements and was acquired for preservation in the early 1981 moving initially to Loughborough and the Great Central Railway.
A touch too much Good Life at an impressionable age?
The allotment: as if I don't have enough guilt in my life with 2 children and a part time job that should be full time. And a cat. And a garden. Oh and a husband,
Haven't made it down there for months between the snow & grumpy ill children. Got some blackcurrant bushes from the ILs last week and they needed to go in the ground before the snow comes again. Surprisingly, it was lovely digging down there, nice & soft and easy. Got the bushes plantedm plus some garlic which I've had for 3 months now. Oops. Still, the leeks are growing and the onions too, although I've culled the cabbage.
And we had a bagful of root veg worth, oooh, almost £2. More if you count it as organic. That's worth a year of guilt and days of weeding, isn't it? I heard they even sell them in Tescos these days...
Not many strangers feature more than once in my "Hello Strangers" set. This lady however has been featured not twice but three times!
No, I didn't stalk her.

Unit History
In 1977 the existing class 502 units working the Merseyrail suburban 750v dc third rail system were approaching forty years in service and the class 507 three car EMU’s were ordered as replacements. Delivery commenced in September 1978 and thirty three units were built by York works between 1978 and 1980. The class 507 is a dc only version of the standard 1972 design for suburban EMUs, which eventually encompassed over seven hundred and fifty vehicles of five classes (313, 314, 315, 507, 508). One unit has been withdrawn following collision damage and the remaining thirty two sets continue to work Merseyrail services.
This was shot for Macro Monday’s theme “How does it work?”.
This is 3rd gear along with it’s synchromesh ring out of my B18C1 (94-01 Acura Integra GS-R) powered 1995 Honda Civic EX-A (she was stolen ‘bout 3 years ago – I miss her!)
The transmission got to a point where I was afraid to use 3rd gear cuz it kept popping out.. took it to Sticks Only in Sun Valley and they made it like new. Now I have this extremely expensive paper weight!
Explored #294 thanks!
There is something very, very compelling about this tiny settlement. No roads... just peace and tranquility.
This is Isle Martin, an uninhabited, community run island off Ardmair Point noth of Ullapool. It is the closest of the Summer Isles and one that can be visited by prior arrangement via a locally operated small ferry.
I feel an adventure coming on!

Even though I realized this rough agate was a plume agate, I felt it was likely to be full of quartz. As you can see, it turned out to be better than I expected it to be.
