another shot of the Model from our shoot. two down, anout 150 to go.... erk. so many of them turned out well!
again, thanks to Ant for the loan of the 450D.
Normal interlocking prevents signals from being cleared unless all other levers are in the correct, non-conflicting position.
This additional locking was designed to keep the relevant signals locked after a train had shunted from one main line to the opposite main line, instead of needing to place reminder collars himself the signalman had to reset the automatic reminder for the line which had become clear.
And! It was SPARKLY! I know!! I saw it in a super cool Italian restaurant. And when it flushes, it's like a VACUUM!
The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

Brand new, right after I took it out of the box. I've since put about 350 rounds through it without any problems at all.
1967-69. Similar to the Autimatic 100, but has Zeiss-Ikon single window combined viewfinder/rangefinder. Able to use all of the available accessories.

PMC Automatc Rapid, half format camera with Agfa's Rapid cassette system and Selenium exposure meter.
It is based on the Ricoh-EE Rapid Half. The Ricoh looks much more elegant, it hasn't the accessory shoe, the automatic/f-stop ring is directly around the lens and it hasn't this leatherette on the front.
PMC is not the company founded by Henry Reichenbach, but stands for "Premie van de Maand Club", as I learned on this helpful side. The camera was rebadged by the Dutch grocer Albert Heijn.
The camera works like its forerunners, the Ricoh Auto Half series. Fixfocus lens with 4 elements, in A-mode the shutter speed is fixed 1/125 s and the f-Stop is set automatically, a "shutter speed priority automatic" with one shutter speed, so to say. For flash photography an f-stop can be set manually, then the shutter speed is 1/30 s.
The Selenium cell isn't completely dead, but seems to be a bit weak. In the film chamber is a needle which detects the film speed from the rapid cassette. Perhaps I can fool this needle and set it to 50 ASA while using a 400 ASA film, e.g.
