Taken at Marina Bay, Singapore. Single RAW exposure.
Decided to visit the newly opened Jubilee bridge yesterday evening.
January 24, 1991: Powered by four SD40-2's, a southbound loaded unit coal train screeches across the bridge connecting the former L&N Cumberland Valley Subdivision and the Southern Railway Appalachia District. This $7M bridge, built by Seaboard System and completed in 1986, obviated the need for the remainder of the CV main to Norton. Seen in the right background, this 12 mile section of track was unused after 1987, and was partially removed in 2017, a portion of which has become the popular Powell River Trail.

Airports are generally pretty drab places or else filled with the gaudiness of taxfree shops and the like. But there are exceptions such as South Korea's wonderful Incheon Airport (see my www.flickr.com/photos/87453322@N00/4640923071/in/photolis...) with its real botanical garden.
Singapore's Changi Airport is also very plant friendly albeit not in a garden form but rather with bright horticultural displays. Though the basic structure remains the same, the flowers vary. Today the focus is on Hydrangeas, and I was greeted by this pretty bouquet. So - nearly missing my onward connection - Sony stopped me to take this shot.
Plants would seem appropriate for this airport. It was named so it is said for the great Changi Tree which once stood here. Towering to some 76 metres, it was cut down during WWII so that it couldn't be used for triangulation by the Japanese enemies.
That's a basher's connection of course. Who else would arrive somewhere on a westbound train and then a few minutes later depart on an eastbound train, without leaving the station?
Class 50 locomotive No. 50038 Formidable arrives at Bodmin Road with 1E21, the 10:21 Penzance - Bradford service on Saturday 21st October 1978. Not long before I had alighted from 1B20, the 08:05 Bristol TM - Penzance service, which had been hauled by sister locomotive No. 50041 Bulwark.
Charing Cross is a station of many names and faces. It has evolved from several Underground stations that have been combined and modified over time into the current form. The story of its development is one of constant change and innovation.
Situated at the point where the Strand and Trafalgar Square meet, the station provides access to an area of London familiar to Londoners and tourists, but few would guess what lies beneath the streets beyond the operational station tunnels.
These photographs, taken in February 2020, showcase the station and tunnels as it turns 40 years old.
Inspiration for the framing of the shots came from the 1975 New Topographics exhibition.

I looked at my old shots from 2013 today. It's hard to believe that it has been already 2 years since I took these.. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do ;D
