With the bulk of the A40 looming ominously overhead, DB Schenker no. 66087 is attached to an engineering train on the GWML west of Paddington.
This weekend, MassDOT replaced one of the I-195 bridges over Fairhaven's River Avenue using four prefabricated bridge units (or PBUs, to short). In this photo, you can see the third PBU being erected, while the fourth waits on the bed of a truck. The units weigh approximately 50 tons each.
Using accelerated bridge construction techniques on this project is reducing the duration of in-the-road construction activities from months to days. This is MassDOT's fourth project to use PBUs.

Zoom shot shows what appears to be a dredging or drilling barge. The canal has been closed since a landslide in 2021; it is scheduled to reopen in June of this year.
This nineteenth-century engineering marvel never turned a profit. It is 6.4 kilometres (4 miles) long and only 25 metres (81 feet) wide at sea level, making it impassable for many modern ships. It is currently of little economic importance and is mainly a tourist attraction.
A canal through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth that separates the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland was proposed as early as the 7th century BCE. At that time Corinth settled for a cheaper, simpler solution: a stone carriageway along which boats could be portaged. Roman emperors starting with Julius Caesar also expressed interest in a canal, and Nero began actual construction, breaking ground with his own hands in 67 CE. The workforce consisted of 60,000 Judean captives. But they had dug only about a tenth of the distance before Nero died and Rome lost interest.
The modern attempt began in 1882, after Greek independence from the Ottomans. It took 11 years to complete, bankrupting two construction companies, the owner of the second, and the bank that backed it.
Even after completion, the canal was underutilized. The limestone walls were unstable, being undermined by ships' wakes and collapsing into the canal. The narrow waterway was difficult for ships to navigate, and strong tidal currents arose as a result of differences in the timing of tides in the Ionian and Aegean seas. The high walls also funneled winds. As a result, demand for its use by ships was only a fraction of what had been predicted.
The canal suffered heavy damage in WWII. The retreating British blew the bridge rather than allow it to be taken by the Germans. Then the retreating Germans used explosives to trigger landslides to block the canal, destroyed the rebuilt bridges and dumped locomotives, bridge wreckage and other infrastructure into the canal to hinder repairs. The United States Army Corps of Engineers began to clear the canal in November 1947 and had it reopened at full draft in about a year.

Trenholm State Community College is currently in the process of architecturally re-branding their Patterson Campus. Trenholm State Community College’s Automotive Collision Repair Program was moved from the Trenholm Campus to the Patterson Campus, and in doing so, will utilize an existing 18,727sf metal building/warehouse which was conducive for the collision repair area. Additional square footage was added to the building to encompass two classrooms, a resource room, offices, tool storage, and a paint shop. The paint shop consists of two new pre-fabricated paint booths, mixing station, and prep area A new façade was developed to enhance the overall appearance of the building. This building is the first of many to feature the new architectural style.
Trenholm State Community College’s Administration and Financial Aid Building project included a new metal retrofit roof and the renovation of an existing building that houses administration offices, financial aid and other student amenities as part of there “Student Success” center to allow for additional classrooms. The existing spaces were updated with new finishes and associated energy efficient mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work. A new entrance and sitework were designed to give a good first impression to students and administrators entering campus.
Trenholm State Community College purchased state of the art prefabricated welding booths for their welding program. However, the buildings electrical system could not accommodate the loads for the booths. Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood was hired to prepare the architecture and engineering drawings to allow the program to use their new welding stations.
Building B & Building D were renovations that include interior and exterior work, re-roofing, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, site work, exterior lighting, new streets, repairs and alterations to existing streets and parking lots, landscaping, and sidewalks.
Giethoorn is a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel. Giethoorn used to be a carfree town known in the Netherlands as "Venice of the North" or "Venice of the Netherlands". It has over 180 bridges. In the old part of the village, there were no roads (nowadays there is a cycling path), and all transport was done by water over one of the many canals. The lakes in Giethoorn were formed by peat unearthing.
Giethoorn was founded by fugitives from the Mediterranean region in around AD 1230.

The Sears Tower from ground level.
I consider this the tallest habitable building in the world, measured from the ground to the topmost part of its Antenna. Following closely at 2nd is Taipei 101, and 3rd Petronas Twin towers. On some technical rules, it is just the 3rd tallest without counting its antenna as part of its height. But aside from being the tallest to its maximum antenna height, this building is the largest among the three tallest.
Other facts: Total height is 527 meters, 110 floors. Its antenna get hit by lightning at a yearly average of more than 600 times.
