I've been contemplating uploading this shot for a while now. I wasn't sure at first but have grown to love the texture and simplicity of it.

Police, Paintballers and exhaustion couldn't break us!!
For HOPE never dies, at worst it only sleeps
And all we surrender, Christmas safely keeps
Through the cold winter nights of the longest Decembers
Till here by starlight , we begin to remember
That in the very end the message Christmas is sending
Is that it is never too late to change any life's ending
-Trans Siberian Orchestra, Paul O'Neill

Thank you all for 475,000 Flickr views. There is much change at the end of this year for us. We were moving boxes to the new rental over Christmas and will be moving in over New Year's. I will miss this old house, but we are not allowed to stay since the rentals are closing down. It will take some adjusting, but I hope everything will be all right in the end.
I thought I was taking a picture of a phone box but when I looked inside it had a cash machine!
Borough Market, London.
The abandoned trailer across the street seems to be a fun source for photos. This box spring is on the back porch.
Group shot!
The Kumabolo N faces are rather faded/light compared to my usaggie ones. I think it's because they're darker in general. But it still photographs really nicely so I'm not complaining.

A few long term rail contacts on Flickr will know that for many years my dad has been looking for an image of this signal box. It was the first place he worked and no matter where he looked or who I spoke with we couldn't find a photo of the box. Everything changed this week. Not just one picture but two came to light. This one was purchased by dad and shows the box and an unknown entourage at some point prior to the Great War.
The box was built by the Great Northern Railway in 1893 and closed by British Railways in 1970. I will let dad supply a few additional notes.
Signalmen were: Clifford Dickinson, Arthur Burton and Bill Humphreys, working three shifts in turn, 6.0 am to 2.0 pm, 2.0 pm to 10.0 pm and 10.0 pm to 6.0 am, days, afternoons and nights, Monday to Saturday, starting a new shift every Monday. The branch line to Castleford and Methley did not operate on Sunday. Train register lads: John Firth and Keith Matthews, working days and afternoon shift alternate weeks.
The box controlled the up and down main and goods lines to and from London to Leeds, the branch line to and from Methley, the East and West line to Robin Hood, the Lofthouse colliery sidings lines and the goods yard at Outwood. Quite busy at times.
I have a recollection of a then, circa 1954, experimental diesel unit testing on the Methley to Leeds line, it deliberately stopped on the steepest part of the 1 in 49 uphill gradient near the junction with the main line, then set off again with no problems. Steam engines often needed a ‘banker’ engine at the rear to assist them up the incline. My signalman friend remarked, “Well John that’s thefuture, we won’t need steam engines when these take over”.
Train register lads duties were: recording, the exact time of all bell contacts relating to the passage of each train in the registers, (eight entries per train). There were different bell codes for each type of train, a light engine was 2-3 rings, an express passenger train 4 bells, etc. Other duties were receiving and transmitting Morse code telegraph messages, telephoning Leeds Central Control with times of VIP trains, etc. Non clerical duties included keeping the box clean and levers polished, washing the many windows, emptying the chemical toilet and burying it behind the box. Plus the unofficial task of operating the box whilst the signalman had his breakfast or tea. Happy days.
In the case of war and other situations it is often true that it's ever so easy to get in, and so very difficult to get out.
This room box is made of mdf & formex and pieces of woods.

The Jewel Box, located on a 17-acre site in Forest Park, was built by the City of St. Louis in 1936 and is operated by the Department of Parks, Recreation and Forestry. It is listed on the National Historic Register.
Thank you for viewing.
This was taken with the other picture on Vermunt Stausee Silvretta. Maybe it is boring to show two pictures of the same subject. But when I view to my archive this always leaps to my eye. First I prefer the other one, but now I am with this. I don't know what is the reason, maybe the red aid box, or the line of the stage. I hope you could see it with the first view and tell me...
