Former NB box at Lochmuir in Fife. This box controlled a loop on the down line at the summit of a climb from Thornton.
In steam days northbound freight, and in particular coal, workings were banked to the summit. The bankers would drop off and return over the crossover back to Thornton.
In the diesel era, the loop was used to allow freights to be overtaken and also as a means of reversing an early morning dmu service from Markinch to Edinburgh. As freight declined the box basically became a block post and was closed from 14th July as part of the Markinch resignalling. It was demolished a few weeks after the pictures were taken.

Are you crafty....creative....want to give a special gift to a special someone.....that they will treasure for the rest of their life.......??....You found it...!!
This is soooooo simple to do.....!!...all it takes......is an acrylic window block....found in most builder supply stores.....(you usually see them in walls to allow light in an area of a home or office)..............you drill a hole in one side just big enough to get a strand of mini lights in....feed all the lights through...just leaving the plug on the outside.............get some decorator wire ribbon.....to dress it up like a present and you are done......!!
This is so magical.....and lights up any corner on a table ....makes a wonderul magical night light for a room..............just the neatest idea .....and makes such a delightful gift to someone you love....or care for..!!
Check out the following picture to see the whole box.....to get a bettter idea how it looks on a table.....!!

Many of us spend most of our days sitting in an office. While many of these offices are a series of "cubicles", much like boxes, there has been a trend towards offices that have no vertical separation between staff. The open concept office has seen a resurgence in popularity. The expressed motivation for all staff occupying a single room has been that it promotes increased shared learning across the entire team by increasing team member interaction and face to face communication.
There is a growing body of research that has concluded that the open concept office has not been successful. It seems that many (perhaps not all) are more productive working in individual boxes.

This box has just one layer of paper in most places so it uses paper effectively, allowing you to make a large box with given sheet size. In contrast to Common Box, outside is completely smooth, and this box is also much stronger than Common Box. The downside is that the lock of the corners is placed inside rather than outside which takes away some space and may make placing objects inside the box difficult. However, I designed this box with the purpose of using it as a lower part of two-part box sets — to be matched to decorated box lids, and this role it fulfills quite well.
It’s a simple design so I wouldn't be surprised if someone had come up with it before.

The tall signal box at Yeoford is nearly as wide as it is long. With its stone to operating floor base of such height as to give the Signalman a good view over the adjacent road bridge, this LSWR box opened on 1st June 1876. It contained a Stevens & Sons Tappet frame of 19 levers which was extended twice over the life of the box, the last time to 35 levers by 1903. With the run-down of the former LSWR's West of England main line and its total closure beyond Meldon in May 1968, Yeoford lingered-on until closure on 18th August 1968.
this shoe was based on the clients own shoes which she was wearing to the party, no pressure then!
made use of my new heel mould courtesy of ammanda from tge clever little cupcake company for mentioning it made life a lot easier but now i really want a former to shape the sole when it dries - anyone know of anything?
really pleased with this cake and shoe, especially shoe as the outer had to be cut in ine shape no seams
Arad means Bronze in Hebrew, and this is his chosen box, number one.
Its quiet, yet distinctive. Its very simple to fold, and beside the grid (4x4) only 4 crease lines are added.
the search is over, we have a winner!
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...
Box based on the same molecule as the previously uploaded tessellation.
Top: Tant paper, hexagon from 24x24 square, 40 division grid.
Bottom: black EH paper
....turtle. An x-ray of a wild caught ornate box turtle. She was x-rayed to see if she was pregnant. Three eggs are visible, which she subsequently laid. The turtle was part of a head start program with local zoos and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. These turtles are considered to be endangered in Illinois. Eggs are collected, incubated, and hatched out. The turtlets are kept for about a year to mature a bit after which they are released into the wild where the eggs (or mom) came from. The female above was released at the site where she was captured. Her babies were terminally cute (about the size of a quarter.

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....
The signalman at Pottington hangs precariously out of his box window; instead of using the stand provided; to hand-over the token to an approaching DMU from Ilfracombe, for the short single line section to Barnstaple Town, which can be seen to the rear of the box. The structure was literally built on the bank of the Taw estuary, and although the waters are tranquil on this day, they must have been very rough at times at this exposed location and the box somewhat draughty. The structure is an LSW Type 3b stone-to floor box which opened on 4th August 1890 when the section between here and Braunton was doubled. It possessed a Stevens & Sons Tappet frame of 19 levers and originally the single line to Barnstaple Town was worked by Tyer's No.3 tablet, later replaced by Key Token. With the singling of the line to Ilfracombe in December 1967 using the former Up line, Pottington was reduced to ground frame status to oversee the adjacent swing bridge. It closed for good along with the Ilfracombe branch on 5th October 1970
A very popular van here in the UK in Citroen, Peugeot and now Vauxhall and even Toyota guises! Norev concentrates on the Citroen Berlingo version and looks wonderfully stock with no side graphics or liveries. Beautifully finished with all the lovely Norev detailing which extends to not only badging but also accurate basic metal wheels. Mint and boxed.
