Orange Empire Railway Museum
The Orange Empire Railway Museum (OERM), 2201 South "A" Street, Perris, California, is a railroad museum founded in 1956 at the Pinacate Station as the "Orange Empire Trolley Museum." The museum also operates a heritage railroad on the museum grounds.
The collection focuses on Southern California's railroad history. It houses the largest collection of Pacific Electric Railway rolling stock in the world, much of it rescued from scrapyards after the discontinuation of their passenger operations.
Two early Los Angeles narrow gauge streetcars from the Los Angeles Railway run each weekend on the half-mile long, dual gauge "Loop Line". A passenger-carrying diesel or electric freight train with open gondolas fitted with benches and at least two cabooses runs on the 1.5-mile (2.4 km) long, standard gauge mainline that was once a spur line of the Santa Fe Railroad. The main stretches from south of the museum northward to the junction with BNSF Railway, where the historic Santa Fe depot on State Route 74 stands. The BNSF Railway spur is in active use, and the railroad grants permission for OERM trains to use the spur for special events. A Pacific Electric interurban "Red Car" also operates on the mainline on selected weekends, but the line electrification ends a block south of the depot. Streetcars and locomotives are selected on a rotating basis. The museum maintains a steam locomotive in operating condition and its use is scheduled for each third Saturday, September through May, certain special events and major holidays.

This is an electro printing block on a columbian press. Its is a line block of a catalogue image for the 1874 coalbrookdale catalogue it is 10inches wide (25cm). On the bed can be seen hempel quions and quoin key.
As soon as I saw the green fabric, I knew I wanted to do a Dresden Plate. The flower came out on the small side so I decided to add the stripes.
I sewed the appliques on by hand and it was actually very relaxing and went quickly. I'm thinking there might need to be more Dresden Plates in my future.
I iwish I could blame my belatedness on that, but really it was just me getting busy with other things. I hope this block makes up for it!
Making progress...Just 3 more to finish for rows 3-5...then the final 14. Oh...and the 1/2 blocks...
This is my Blocked fabric design in charcoal gray, bright pink, lime green and white. It's available at Spoonflower:

No, I am not being even weirder than usual. The city blocks in the centre of Helsinki are all numbered and they have names, many of them after animals. This shot is from the corner of block #31, called the Rhinoceros.
