Overzicht van de verdeelsporen Kijfhoek huisvest Keyrail, exploitant Betuweroute en is in beheer bij ProRail. De Betuweroute, die begint als Havenspoorlijn op de Maasvlakte, verbindt via Kijfhoek de Rotterdamse haven met het achterland. Het rangeeremplacement dient voor het sorteren van goederenwagons waarbij gebruik gemaakt wordt van de zwaartekracht, het 'heuvelen': de wagons worden de heuvel opgeduwd, bij het de heuvel afrollen komen ze, door middel van wissels, op verschillende verdeelsporen. Railremmen zorgen voor het automatisch remmen van de wagons. Na het heuvelproces staan de nieuw samengestelde treinen op aparte opstelsporen.

These sunbathing containers are soaking up the rays, stacked high and ready for their next cargo adventure . They could end up anywhere in the world—Shanghai, Sydney, or São Paulo—just by being next in line for the journey. Each one’s got a story to tell, from rusty edges to faded labels, whispering tales of distant ports. And then, there’s the green one, standing out in the crowd, shouting, ‘I am special!’ Who knows where they’ll go next?

Bell UH-1H Iroquois "Huey" Smokey III
What the jeep was to Americans during World War II, so was the "Huey" to those who fought in Vietnam. All branches of the U. S. military operated Bell UH-1 Iroquois and they ranged to every corner of South Vietnam and into Cambodia and Laos. Superbly suited to the air mobility and medical evacuation missions in Vietnam, the Huey became an indelible symbol of Vietnam war. Numerous patches on its skin attest to the ferocity of missions flown while operating as a "Smoke Ship," laying down smokescreens for air assault operations with the 11th Combat Aviation Battalion.
In Vietnam primary missions included general support, air assault, cargo transport, aeromedical evacuation, search and rescue, electronic warfare, and later, ground attack.

Bandvagn 206 (Bv 206) (meaning ''Tracked Vehicle 206'' in English) is a Tracked Articulated, All-Terrain Carrier developed by Hägglunds (now part of BAE Systems Platforms & Services) for the Swedish Army. It consists of two units, with all four powered tracks. It can carry up to 17 Personnel (6 in the front compartment, 11 in the rear) and the trailer unit can be adapted for different uses.
Development of the Bv 206 All-Terrain Articulated Tracked Carrier began in 1974, three batches of trial vehicles were delivered between 1976 and 1978 and the first production examples were delivered to the Swedish Defence Administration in 1980. Like its predecessor, the Volvo Bv 202, the Bv 206 is designed to carry Troops and equipment through snow and bog-lands in northern Sweden. The low ground pressure enables the Bv 206 to cope with a wide range of difficult conditions. It is also fully Amphibious, with a speed in water of up to 2.9mph. Over 11,000 units have been produced and they are used in more than 37 countries worldwide.
The total load capacity is 4,960lb and a trailer of up to 5,500lb gross weight can also be towed behind the second compartment. The Bv 206 is referred to as a 'Small Unit Support Vehicle' (SUSV) pronounced ''susvee'' in United States service. U.S Military variants include the standard model (M973) a Tactical Operations Center variant (M1065) an Ambulance variant (M1066) and a Flat-Bed Cargo Carrier (M1067). U.S Military models are fitted with a 6-cylinder Mercedes diesel engine and a non-halon fire suppression system, since 1997 due to several cases where the front car caught fire and burned to the frame.
Users include the American and Australian Antarctic Research Organizations and British, Icelandic and Canadian Search and Rescue Services. They are also used for Search and Rescue Services in the Austrian alpine region. The Bv 206 was used in Combat by the Canadian Army during 'Operation Anaconda'. The Singapore Armed Forces uses the Bv 206 and recently transferred several of them to the Singapore Civil Defence Force for use as a Firefighting Platform. Decommissioned units have been purchased by private owners and rented as transports, particularly in Alberta, Canada, to access remote oil wells, as well as cut blocks which need to be reforested by tree planting.
Hägglunds Bv 206 Variants:-
**Bv 206A - An Ambulance version, which is capable of carrying stretchers in the rear compartment.
**Bv 206F - Fire Appliance variant.
**RaBv 2061 - (RadioBandvagn 2061) Swedish Army Communications / Command version, fitted with Radio Equipment and workplaces for Personnel.
**PvBv 2062 - (PansarvärnsBandvagn 2062) Swedish Army Anti-Tank Vehicle, an open top version of the Bv 206 armed with a 90mm Pvpj 1110 Recoilless Anti-Tank Gun.
**PvBv 2063 - (PansarvärnsBandvagn 2063) Swedish Army Anti-Tank Vehicle, similar to PvBv 2062, but fitted with the Launch System for an ATGM, either the TOW (Rbs 55) or the Bofors BILL (Rbs 56).
**Bv 206S - Armoured Personnel Carrier variant of the Bv 206, which provides protection from Small Arms fire for Personnel. It is in service with the Armed Forces of France, Germany (379 Bv 206D/S ordered) Spain, Netherlands, Italy (158 units) Sweden (50 units), Greece (Bv 208) and Singapore (300 units) which has replaced it with the Bronco All Terrain Tracked Carrier. Using a Steyr M1-''Monoblock'' engine (6-cylinder, 174hp) the vehicle can carry the Driver and 12 Combat-Equipped Troops, four in the front compartment and eight in the rear. The Bv 206S can be underslung and airlifted by Boeing CH-47 Chinook and Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion Helicopters or carried in the C130 Hercules Aircraft, amongst others. Canadian Troops taking part in 'Operation Anaconda' in Afghanistan made good use of this vehicle, riding over rough mountainous terrain with full Combat Gear, allowing the Troops to avoid the exhaustion they would have felt moving on foot at such high altitudes and in such conditions. The British Army is looking to replace its Bv 206D's by 2020.
**GAZ-3351 - Produced in Russia under license from Hägglunds by the GAZ Group at the Zavolzhsky Plant Of Caterpillar Tractors, uses a 6-cylinder Steyr M16 turbodiesel engine.

To speed up and improve Troop movement in the high mountains and the Barracks located at the bottom of the valley, at the beginning of the 1930's some Light Vehicles were designed and put into operation, such as the 6.5 ton Lancia 3Ro 4x2, also used as a Self-Propelled Anti-Aircraft Gun, the Fiat-SPA 38R 4x2 and the Fiat Dovunque 33, the most versatile and used vehicle was the OM Autocarretta.
In 1927, the newly established Automotive Technical Inspectorate of the Royal Army, in order to improve and speed up the connections between the troops operating in the mountains and the Barracks located at the bottom of the valley, issued a competition notice "service in the mountains" for the design and construction of a small truck capable of operating on Military Mule Tracks in the mountains. Four companies, Ansaldo, Ceirano, Fiat, and Lancia were invited to present their projects. The last three were already companies that had supplied numerous excellent vehicles to the Royal Army, such as the 6.5 ton Lancia 3Ro 4x2, the Fiat-SPA 38R 4x2, the Fiat Dovunque 33 and the Ceirano 50. The Ansaldo company of Genoa had passed, in the same year, under the control of Macchi of Varese, which had acquired control of the majority of the shares. President of the company the mayor of Milan, Ernesto Belloni, had just been appointed.
Ansaldo Automobile SA of Turin commissioned the engineer Giulio Cesare Cappa, who had left Fiat to open his own technical office, to design the new vehicle. In response to the "mountain service" call, Fiat presented the 1014 model, the Ceirano the 1015 model, while Lancia refused to present anything in the first six months of 1931. Unexpectedly in 1930, and out of the official competition, Moto Guzzi presented an elaboration of the Three-Wheeled Machine Gun, first transformed into a Light Tractor for towing a 65/17 Mod. 1908/1913 Artillery Piece up the mountain, and then in a Tracked or Wheeled Truck with two rolling trains released from the chassis.
The prototype of the Ansaldo Mountain Truck was tested in the valleys of the Pinerolo area in December 1929, and on the 13th of the month, starting from San Germano, it reached Ruata di Pramollo advancing on a very narrow Mule Track. Due to the financial difficulties facing Ansaldo, the project was sold for marketing to the company OM of Brescia, which increased the engine displacement from 1,350 cm³ to 1,615 cm³. Thus modified it was presented in three copies to the homologation tests which took place in the second half of 1931, but a production order for a first batch had already been placed in the first half of the year. The homologation took place in the first half of 1932, and the messenger was officially designated Autocarretta 32, while all competing models were abandoned. In 1933 OM became part of the Fiat Group, and a special body was tested for the transport of Personnel, and a Bowser version for the transport of water.
In the first six months of 1934, a vehicle modernization project was started, by installing a Bosch dynamo capable of powering the central headlight and the two side lights, which previously operated on acetylene, the track was increased to 3ft 7in to try to improve the driving behavior, which was difficult, and improvements were also introduced to the suspension and steering linkage. These modifications gave life to the truck version 35, and were later adopted retroactively on the model 32. The use of a pre-selector remained at an experimental level Wilson, while in the course of a second order for the 32 model, 20 examples of a Personnel Transport version called the ''Mountain Reconnaissance Car'' were built.
With the adoption of the Baistrocchi order, the Royal Army established the first two Motorized Divisions, the ''Trento'' and the ''Po''. The adoption of pneumatic wheels and a multiplier on the 35 model gave rise to the version called 36mt Truck, from which the 36 P or DM with torpedo bodywork were derived for the transport of a team of Riflemen with two Breda Mod. 30 Unit Arms mounted on it on Chiappi-Soriani candlestick supports. At an experimental level, the installation in single or twin carts of Fiat Mod. 35 6.5mm Machine Guns remained for shooting against Low-Flying Aircraft. In 1937 the 36mt model was revised by abandoning the pneumatic wheels, while maintaining the hydraulic shock absorbers, this variant was called the 37 Truck.

Dai Hanzhi: 5000 Artists
Witte de With, Rotterdam 2014
Ni Haifeng werd geboren op het eiland Zhoushan, gelegen op twaalf uur zeilen van Shanghai. Nadat hij Chinese inktschilderkunst en kaligrafie studeerde aan de Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts in Hanghzhou stichtte hij in 1987 "Red 70%, Black 25%, White 5%", een groep radicale conceptuele inkt-kunstenaars waaronder Wu Shanzhuan, tevens geboren op Zhoushan. In hun happenings en tentoonstellingen gebruikte de groep zogenoemde “nonsens tekens” en “niet-artistieke” teksten. Dit vroege werk concentreerde zich op het schrijven, de toe-eigening en de deconstructie van vormen van taal. Wanneer hij terugkeert naar Zhoushan en leraar wordt, beschildert Ni Haifeng rotsen, gebouwen, ramen, deuren en straten met zijn mysterieuze karakters, waardoor hij begrippen als landschap en poëzie herschrijft. Van dit vroege werk bestaan alleen foto’s. In zijn werk zijn thema’s als kolonialisme, cargotransport, vertrekken en terugkeren en materialen als rotsen, kaarten en touwen getuigen van Ni Haifeng’s culturele verleden dat diep geworteld is in zijn geboorte-eiland.
Ni Haifeng was born on the island of Zhoushan, some twelve sailing hours off Shanghai. After studying Chinese ink painting and calligraphy at the Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts in the city of Hangzhou he co-founded "Red 70%, Black 25%, White 5%", a group of radical conceptual ink-artists – including Wu Shanzhuan, who is also from Zhoushan Island. In their happenings and exhibitions, the group worked with so-called "nonsense characters" and "non-artistic" texts. These early works focused on the act of writing, re-appropriating and deconstructing forms of language. Back in Zhoushan, where he got a job as a teacher, Ni Haifeng painted his mysterious characters over rocks, buildings, windows, doors and streets, thus rewriting notions of landscape and poetry. Of these early works, only photographs remain. In his work, subjects like colonialism, cargo, leaving and returning, and materials like rocks, maps and ropes, testify to a cultural past that is deeply rooted in his, and his native island's memory.

The Lockheed R6V Constitution was a large, propeller-driven, double-decker transport aircraft developed in the 1940s by Lockheed as a long-range, high capacity transport and airliner for the U.S. Navy and Pan American Airways. Only two of the aircraft were ever built, both prototypes. Although these two planes went into service with the Navy, the Constitution design ultimately proved underpowered and too large for practical airline use at the time. Although the Martin JRM Mars flying boat had a slightly longer wingspan, the Constitution remains the largest fixed-wing aircraft type ever operatedThe Constitution had operational difficulties which prevented it from meeting its original design objectives. The large airframe needed more power than the four Pratt & Whitney R-4360s could deliver, and the engines had cooling problems. While this could be compensated for by flying with engine cowl flaps partially open, it increased drag and decreased range.
The Navy operated the two Constitutions through the end of the 1940s and into the 1950s. By 1949 the Navy announced that it could no longer afford to operate them, and offered them to airlines on a five-year lease. There was no interest from airlines in using the Constitutions (the airline version was named the Model 189), so the Navy retired both aircraft in 1953. They went into storage at Litchfield Park, Arizona in 1955. Both aircraft and 13 spare engines were sold for $97,785. Lockheed proposed the Model 389 and Model 489 airliners based on the Constitution, which would have accommodated up to 169 passengers. Neither of these "paper" projects received much interest from civil operators.
The first Constitution was brought to Las Vegas, where it served as an enormous billboard for Alamo Airways, before being scrapped by Howard Hughes when he acquired the property. The second Constitution was flown to Opa-Locka Airport, Florida, where it was stored on the airfield before being towed to an empty lot several miles from the airport. There were plans to convert it to a restaurant and museum theme park. The project never materialized and the airplane was destroyed due to lack of funding and pressure from the city to have it removed. by the U.S. Navy. (wiki)

The greyhound is approaching the takeoff area, but first, pilot/observers leave the cargo hold to go to the shack next to the landing instrumentation, to observe the other pilots' actions.
A moment in time at take-off, it looks worse than it actually was; the pilot of the Cessna 208B Grand Caravan (single-turboprop) quickly leveled his wings for an otherwise routine departure. It was a calm day. Since this is a cargo transport, perhaps the load was not as balanced as it should have been. This aircraft regularly flies to Catalina Island (32 miles and 14 minutes away in the Pacific Ocean), from its base of operations at Long Beach Airport (KLGB).
* In June, 2017 Catalina Flying Boats traded its two DC-3s for a pair of single-engine turboprop Cessna Caravans that are more reliable and less expensive to maintain. The DC-3s were flown to Ohio for a $3 million overhaul, and remain in service half a world away, flying cargo to difficult-to-access places in Africa. www.dailybreeze.com/2017/06/20/a-sad-day-for-aviation-buf...
At one time its landing approach was low over my house, and I miss the beautiful sound of that pair of radial engines.
