Midland Red's last in-house designed and built double decker, produced in quantity, was the D9. The prototype emerged in 1958, shortly after 30ft. two axle double deckers were permitted and production got under way in 1960. As came to be expected with Midland Red, the design was innovative and different, developing the technology embodied in the S14 single decker. Rubber suspension, disc brakes, integral construction, power steering, and extensive use of glass reinforced plastic and light alloys were employed. Auxiliaries were hydraulic, rather than air, assisted. The set back front axle made the bus more manouverable than 30ft. buses with a conventional front axle position. It did, however, cause the bus to nod backwards and forwards a bit on the move. The disc brakes were not a success, largely because durable heavy duty components had not yet been developed, and were replaced by conventional drum brakes.
By the time BHA403C was built in 1965, Midland Red, due to its acute staffing problems, had turned to Willowbrook to fit out the H41/32R bodies. The bus had just emerged from Birmingham's Bull Ring Bus Station when this picture was taken in September 1972.
Im Herbst 2010 endete die Ära der Düwag Gelenkwagen in Krefeld. Ein Jahr zuvor waren die Klassiker aus Düsseldorf noch unermütlich im Einsatz. Hier Wagen 824 in Krefeld Fischeln. Das Fahrzeug ging 2010 mit neun anderen Wagen ins Polnische Graudenz.
Completed today. Some info on the painting, as found on the back of the puzzle box:
"Glittering chandeliers, elaborately decorated table centres and heavily gold-braided military uniforms all contribute to the splendour of this sumptuous State occasion. The Military Order of Maria Theresa became Austria's senior award for war services when it was founded by the Empress Maria Theresa in 1757. The Order is in the shape of a symmetrical jewelled cross with the simple inscription, Fortitudini (for bravery) on the reverse. Worn with the Order is a scarlet edged white sash, which in this 1861 Anniversary painting can be seen worn by the Archduke raising his glass in a final toast.
This impressive canvas was painted by Siegmund L'Allemand, a notable Austrian artist. Born in Vienna in 1840, L'Allemand had his first painting lessons from his uncle Fritz L'Allemand. He later studied under Ruben and Karl Blaas and eventually in 1883 he succeeded them as professor of the Viennese Academy. L'Allemand has successfully humanised his portrayal of this very formal banquet. Chairs have been pushed back from the table, upon which many already empty decanters can be seen. In the foreground the waiters anxiously scan the room, ready with more full wine bottles. Plumed military helmets are piled on side tables; the faces of the military officers around the huge table are clearly recognisable. In this very masculine scene the only feminine touch is the sculpture of the Empress herself, presiding majestically over the proceedings. Siegmund L'Allemand died in 1910."

As mentioned in an earlier post, Siegmund's uncle Fritz L'Allemand was also a prominent artist from the period, and one of Siegmund's earliest teachers.
The original painting, which is quite massive, can be found in the Billiard Room of the Schloss Schönbrunn museum in Vienna.
From 1883 Siegmund L'Allemand served as a professor, and later the head of the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. An interesting footnote is that he chaired the admissions committee that in 1907 rejected admission to a young aspiring art student named Adolf Hitler.
En aquella época las UT de MetroBilbao que circulaban por la L2 sólo llegaban hasta la población de Sestao y es ahí donde se dirige esta UT. En la imagen se aprecia como la UT558 es captada justamente cuando comienza a sumergirse bajo el túnel, llamado tubo, que discurre bajo las calles del centro Bilbao y que tendrá que atravesar para llegar a destino.
