37402 preparing to depart Warrington Bank Quay working a delayed Warrington to Crewe Pathfinder charter. Delayed due to the Daventry to Warrington leg of The Clay Box where 37409 failed and had to be replaced by 37402. 37609 was on the other end.
This was just one of a number of 'mini' charters using the same stock that ran off Crewe on the 21st February, running over night to numerous lines that aren't possible to cover during day light due to service trains. Manchester Airport, Windermere & Blackpool South in the early hours of the 22nd then to Daventry freight terminal during the day, back up to Warrington then to Crewe via Birmingham New Street.
I saw this Red Box project candidate some time ago, when diverted of the dualled section of the A23. Life gets in the way, so it had to wait.
However a trip the Park Cameras (thanks for organising the Birds Day) to buy a new tripod, and so the oportunity presented.
Form the royal cipher, it is from the time of Queen Victoria of the type where a timber, fronted by cast iron, box is built in to the host's wall.
A fine example that is quite tricky to see.
I was looking at some old photos over the weekend of Nemo doing silly things, and in a lot of them he was in boxes. I was thinking that he didn't do things like that anymore, and I realised that it was probably because we don't give him boxes to play with! I felt bad, and found a good Nemo-sized box from my tower of shoeboxes (yeah, I've got to do something about that, as it's almost reached the ceiling now), and he immediately went to sleep in it ^_^
I don't know why cats like boxes so much... They seem to like the feeling of being enclosed in something cat-sized. Maybe that's why they like sinks so much, too.
Paper: Octagon, Hexagon, Pentagon cutted from Wrapping Paper, 10 cm Square
Model: Paul Groom
I found the diagram for the triangle box in my last year's Origami Calender. After folding it, it was obvious that this works for any polygon. So I made some more. Most fun was the square box: Starting with a pentagon, just to end up with something square was kind of weird....
After Edale it was off to Earles arriving at 1050'ish.
A lovely box, it's looks spoilt by it's flat roof which like Great Rocks is the result of a fire .
Absolute block both ways again and here there's an IB section in both directions.
The box and sidings opened in 1929 with the opening of the cement works located at the end of the branch.
The narrower centres and the location of the frame in the back of the box give a clue to it's more recent heritage.
Not a lot has changed here over the years, the IB's were introduced to counteract closures of boxes at Norman's Bank (towards Edale) and Hope / Bamford. The box diagram is dated 1982 and is very little altered. A busier box than it's Grade 3 neighbors on each side it is thus a 4.
The cement works were developed by G & T Earle and thus surely the Earles should have an apostrophe but it hasn't ??
Some details of the branch and it's history here...

Earles Sidings Signal Box.

Brown box car, one of three I have made. The others are light gray and (not finished yet) sand green. I decided the third one will be sand green to make it cool and fashionable ;-)

It must have been a special birthday for Kings Lynn-based rail tour promoter Nigel Dobbing as West Coast Railways, the train operating company which operates his charter trains, provided a a rake of coaches including some heritage vehicles for a special private charter to celebrate the event. Of note was the use of the 'Queen of Scots' observation car positioned at the rear of the train, and the use of WCRC's recently restored 'Jubilee' No. 45699 'Galatea' to haul the train. On a grey 20th May 2013 the ensemble is seen passing Whittlesea signal box heading back from Kings Lynn to Carnforth with the empty stock off the previous days charter.

The L&SWR Type 1 box at Pinhoe on the outskirts of Exeter opened c.1875. It contained an 18 lever Stevens & Sons Tappet frame and controlled the single to double line connection from here to Exeter Central, after the former L&SWR West of England main line was singled from here to Honiton in 1967. The adjacent level crossing had been converted to barriers by the date of this photo and Pinhoe box was abolished on 15th February 1988 when the area it controlled came under the control of a panel installed in Exmouth Junction box.
Hexagonal box... Purple top folded from an 8.5 inch wide hexagon gridded in 16ths... Yellow bottom folded from an 8.5 inch square divided in 7ths... It's amazing how it works out that 1/8 * 2 / root(3) is slightly larger than 1/7, thus making the top fit the bottom snugly...
The overlap section between the top and bottom is actually an anti-prism, which means the lid actually holds quite well, and does not fall off even if turned upside-down and shaken with objects inside...
The top is a result of some of the playing around I did on the yellow sheet with the offset double-pleats... It didn't look too good tessellated, but I realized the sides could be wrapped down and turned into a box-top...
Dunford East signalbox 5th July 1970. It's about 0500 on a Sunday morning and I'm waiting for some ballast trains to return to the tip from engineering work in Sheffield.
I had signed on at 0200 and off at 0935, it was a pleasure to work here on mornings like this seeing the sun rise and watching all the wildlife. Checking my diarys to see the shift I'd worked made interesting reading, for instance the entry for January 8th 1970 when I was on 1400 to 2200 shift says, Scooter broke down on way to work left at Penistone station and lift on Bo-Bo 26043 to work, home on Bo-Bo 26022 to West Silkstone and bus from there (thick snow) those were the days you wouldn't be able to get a bus in thick snow these days.

This was a wooden box I found at an outdoor auction. The background is this great brown vinyl fabric I found at Joann Fabrics. My patio doors are to camera right.
I'm always looking for CC -feel free to comment on how you would have shot this differently (angle, crop, positioning etc.) :)
