I've always thought that the Class 73 was a stylish design, notwithstanding its flat sides to suit the narrow Hastings line loading gauge. Not only that but it was technically very clever, combining the attributes of a mainline electric traction unit and a more modestly-powered diesel locomotive. Its 600hp diesel engine, intended for brief periods of operation off the third rail, has ensured its survival in large numbers: 19 of the 49 built have found new home on preserved lines across the company in a wide variety of (mainly) authentic liveries. It was a challenge to find something different for this collection of fictional images. I wanted to do something in Southern Region green and settled on this style based on the Class 71 electric locomotive preserved in the National Collection. I'm not sure whether the 73s carried this particular shade of green, but in any event the red and white lining seems to have been unique to the straight electrics (24-Aug-10).

Annie Hart's 1st grade class photo. I'm "2nd row from left, 3rd pupil" as my mom wrote. Taken around Easter,1967. This school was razed in 1968 or 1969 and the boys had to carry the desks about 10 or so blocks to the new school. I was in second grade at the time. If anyone knows the identity of the other students in this portrait, feel free to note them.

Preserved Brush Type 2 Class 31 A1A-A1A diesel locomotive 31233 stabled at the heritage Mangapps Railway Museum near Burnham on Crouch in the County of Essex (UK).
31233 was built at Brush Traction Ltd. Loughborough and entered service as British Railways Type 2 D5660 in October 1960.
31233 was withdrawn from service by Network Rail in April 2017 and was purchased for preservation by Mangapps Railway Museum Proprietor Mr John Jolly along with fellow yellow 31105 in October 2018.
Both 31233 and 31105 were the last Class 31 locomotives in operation for Network Rail.
Absolutely adore Class 31's. Cut my young trainspotting teeth on these not too far from here at Chelmsford station in the late 1970s.

A Day in the Life of BRB
‘A Day in the Life of BRB’ is a special photoshoot, taken on the 3 Nov 2021 while Birmingham Royal Ballet were touring to Sadler’s Wells to show London their 'Curated by Carlos' triple bill.
The gallery follows the company through the day, starting with company class, and work in the studio on two pieces being danced in 'Curated by Carlos' - Miguel Altunaga's 'City of a Thousand Trades' and 'Chacona' by Goyo Montero. The later featured a new pas de deux created especially for Carlos Acosta and Alessandra Ferri, who can also be seen in this set.
The 'Curated by Carlos' triple bill is being streamed from the 11-18 November 2021 as part of Sadler's Wells Digital Stage - more details at www.sadlerswells.com/digital-stage
