This is behind the old “Paradise Pier“ at CDA. As you can see I shot it with an old 5D Mark III and a Tamron 1.8 lens. The original full rez photo (before uploading to Flickr) is sharp as heck you could actually blow up the Zephyr sign to fill a screen and it looks perfect and no noise. Not bad for a 2 1/2 year-old photo and an 2012 camera.
The Air Force hired thousands of out-of-work CDA employees for hazmat control after Monsters, Inc determined in 2005 that children were no longer a threat. This CDA crew is decontaminating Indiana Jones from radioactive fallout after he valiantly survived an atomic test. The CDA Truck is composed of two nearly symmetrical layers of Slope Bricks. The bottom layer is flipped upside down and aligned to the upper layer using technic axles.
A short sojourn at Saltash while heading for a day in Plymouth resulted in this shot of Class 50 No. 50149 'Defiance'easing off the Royal Albert Bridge while heading a Tavistock Junction - St Blazey rake of CDA china clay empties on 19th September 1988.

Twilight along the outer edges of Coeur D'Alene Lake in Idaho. I love the simplicity of the scene and the beautiful colors. Capturing water this still, with fog, and the transitioning light was magical. I contemplated cropping this photo to lessen the dead space, but the full image really conveys the peace and tranquility of this special moment.
This single image (0 EV) was taken with the Nikkor 20mm f/1.8 ED lens and Nikon D850. I used a linear camera profile to edit this photo in Lightroom, with custom curves (gamma, end-points, mid-tones, and local/global tone mapping contrast) and final editing in Photoshop using Adobe Lossless RAW layers.

The CDA china clay wagons were introduced in the late 1980s and left service in the summer of 2023. They were deemed to be unsuitable for refurbishing, and even for main line movement to a scrap yard, so are being cut up on site at St Blazey.
On the final loaded revenue run for the CDA china clay wagons before withdrawal, DB Cargo 66199 approaches St Austell with 6P24 Parkandillack - Fowey Carne Point on 11 August 2023 with clay dust billowing from rear of the train. After unloading the wagons would return to St Blazey yard for storage, bringing to an end the 35 year career of the CDA fleet and the operation of four-wheel wagons on china clay traffic in Cornwall.
Not much EWS red left on 375090 as the original ECC blue shows through. Not also the square buffers on the closest end.
Having just been removed from their frames in St.Blazey Yard by local scrap metal merchant Henry Orchard & Sons the body of wagon 375031 and half the body of 375027 are seen on the newly built A391 Carluddon Bypass. The lorry is sticking to the main roads while heading for Orchard's Yard at Carne Cross adjacent to the Eden Project. Just above the lorry the top of the disused Baal clay pit can be seen, Baal being used in the past for filming of the BCC's 'Doctor Who'.

The concrete hard standing in this photo was laid to allow scrap metal to be loaded into wagons for transporting to Cardiff. The flow finished during January 2014 and the siding is now rarely used. Here two stripped CDA wagons 375013, 375053 have been moved from the shed area for cutting up. Local scrap merchant 'Henry Orchard & Son' who was the original user of this area returned for the task. Over the next few months 26 wagons met their fate here, including many from the stored lines visible behind.
The late afternoon china clay trip working from Tavistock Junction to Lothwithiel [for Fowey] in the care of BR 37675 'William Cookworthy' leans to the curve in this view taken in June 1989. The loaded CDA hoppers had been collected earlier from Marsh Mills ECC Driers by a BR 08 shunter. In the background the 6B43 Speedlink from St. Blazey is completing its traffic stop at Tavistock Junction Yard before continuing to Gloucester Yard.
