A native plant to Australia which I really like. This is from my garden and this attracts native birds and bees. It’s a beautiful rich pink, I think this is called Callistemon 'Reeve's Pink'.

Another shot from the Brunswick Centre - I'm liking what they've done here - although I do wish they'd given the flats a coat of paint too....

Recently named 66772 'Maria' seen approaching Blackburn working 6M90 Avonmouth-Clitheroe. Still the twin axle P.C.As continue to see a lot of use, they must have racked some mileage by now!
R thời gian trôi mau bỗg xót xa khôg còn anh. Bầu trời đêm không trăg lặng lẽ ngôi sao nghẹn ngào. Giữa cơn lốc xoáy tình đời, tình thoáng mong manh mơ hồ. Nước mắt nào chợt rơi xuống, lặng nghe tiếng khóc trong đêm nụ hôn ngày xưa đã phai. Một mai thức giấc chợt nhận ra giấc mơ xưa mãi chĩ là giấc mộng đẹp. Giữa cuộc đời dông bão ai ngờ đưa lối. Một mai thức giấc tìm lại mình giữa hoang vu bõ sau lưng những muộn phiền. Những nỗi buồn hôm qua không còn đau nhói tựa gió mây trôi cuối chân trời !

* (a) Parkgate Retail Tram/Train stop
And, at the first of two locations today for the NR Inspection Saloon, 'Caroline', a trio of traction, one brand new and two sets well, not so new. At left, propelling 975025 along to the north is Direct Rail Services operated class 37, 37409, ex-D6970, 'Lord Hinton' in B.R. blue livery with big double-arrow logo, 'Intercity', and 'The Age of the Train'; now a long time ago... Have to say this is the best pairing of 'Caroline' and a propelling class 37 I have seen, though this set was sat at Rotherham Central for a few minutes, way back in May 2011, and came as a complete surprise... no RTT, Freightlocate or RailCam in those days!, see-

Approaching from the North ,one of the not so new units, in the form of another class 142, this time 142070 on the local stopper from Adwick to Sheffield, 2R46. Still waiting at the Tram/Train stop on the left, unit 399202, 'Theo', waiting for the off at 09:59, on its path back to Sheffield Cathedral and will make its cross over movement onto the correct south-bound line just at the other side of the footbridge behind the camera.
Some additional information regarding 'Caroline'-
Previous numbers: BR DEMU 60755.
'...This vehicle was used in the Royal Honeymoon train for Princess Diana and Prince Charles on 29 July 1981. Of interest is that this vehicle, along with a class 73 loco, worked the first ever passenger train into the Channel Tunnel in Autumn 1992. Alas, it was only a few hundred yards, but all the same, still notable. This is owned by Network Rail, the modifications were carried out by Rail Vehicle Engineering Limited(RVEL). Originally this coach had the same multi working arrangement as a 400 series EMU, and could work in multi-pull with either a 33/1 or 73/1 in the same manner as a 4TC unit (etc) would work. When the recent modifications were carried out, the control equipment was converted to "Blue Star" and internally the power controller was replaced with something akin to what can be found in a Class 31. So now in theory any "Blue Star" ETH fitted loco can work and be driven remotely from this coach. It was originally built at Eastleigh in 1958 to Hastings gauge as DEMU buffet vehicle no. S 60755 which was converted to Inspection Saloon 'Caroline'. Vehicle type AZA no. DB 975025 was designated in 1969....'
37409, 'Lord Hinton' and 975025, 'Caroline' are working the Network Staff Inspection run, 2Z02, with the ECS coming into Sheffield earlier today as 5Z02 and then departing for the run through Lincolnshire to Barnetby and back as 2Z02. Finally heading south this afternoon to Woodburn Junction and a run up the Deepcar Branch towards Stocksbridge Works after which the set returned via Woodburn and Beighton Junction, to Chesterfield.
B.R.S. Car Transport is where my late Gran Jackson used to work in the office at Rowley Road, and where my dad used to drive for Morton's B.R.S. Their depot was just a little up Rowley Road.

Again though I'd try something totally different than i'd normally do for todays photo. Don't really know how I came up with the concept. I just started editing and then it kind of snowballed together. I spent quite a long time on this so i hope you like it!!!
I appreciate any comments good or constructive so If you've got any let me know!
Thanks.

RD25007(vid). Over the weekend 21st - 23rd April, 2023 the Bluebell Railway in Sussex held another of their 'Branch Line Weekend’ Galas; visiting for the occasion were two Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway locomotives, 0-6-0 52322 (B.R. Number) and ‘Pug’ 0-4-0ST Dock Shunter 11243 (LMS number). A third visitor was Hunslet 0-6-0ST HASTINGS. The two L &YR locos had come from the East Lancashire Railway and HASTINGS was from the Kent & East Sussex Railway.
I went along on the Friday and had a thoroughly enjoyable day riding on the trains and videoing from the stations. This is the third part of the video footage that I took that day and it was shot at Horsted Keynes. Locos seen are the L&YR ‘Pug’ and the L&YR 0-6-0. Further videos will feature more of the splendid steam action that took place during the day.

R.I.P. Leonard Nimoy, March 26, 1931 – February 27, 2015*
• For Black History Month
The history of blacks in speculative fiction (science fiction, fantasy, horror, etc.) is longer than even i realized. Meaning it goes farther back than my egocentric experience of being a genre geek pretty much my entire life. The Wikipedia entry on “Black science fiction” (link below) includes notes about a couple of 19th century works by Martin Delany and Charles W. Chestnut that were news to me. Also intriguing was the mention of the 1902 novel Of One Blood by Pauline Hopkins, the first “lost civilization” novel by a black author. Most surprising to me, though was the mention of a short story from 1920 entitled “The Comet,” written by educator and intellectual W.E.B. Du Bois. Apparently, i need to pay more attention to what’s on my bookshelf (and actually do some more reading from there) because that story was published in the Dark Matter anthology i have sitting not 20 feet away from me.
The 20th century saw two titans of black speculative fiction emerge: Samuel R. Delany (whom i had the pleasure of meeting at the inaugural Fire & Ink LGBTQ writers conference more than a decade ago) and Octavia E. Butler who died tragically after a fall almost exactly nine years ago today. Both of them impacted me personally with their writing, Ms. Butler especially. (I’ve read every one of her novels at least twice.)
Newer voices continue to emerge in this field, particularly those of black women. Authors like Tananarive Due, Nalo Hopkinson, and N.K. Jemisin have not only caught my eye, but have caught the attention of readers worldwide. Reading Tananarive Due’s The Between and The Good House both had me grinding my teeth in tense anticipation. And N.K. Jemisin, only five novels into her career, has already eased the pain of Octavia Butler’s passing.
If you aren’t familiar with the authors mentioned above or in the links below, do yourself a favor and check them out now. They might expand your mind and change your life….

*I know: Leonard Nimoy was not black. But his passing on February 27 marked me as it did so many others. I decided to turn away from the somewhat more self-centered topic i was going to use and instead focus on “black speculative fiction.” Thanks, Mr. Nimoy. You taught us what it truly means to “live long and prosper.”
