14th June 2015 - British Aircraft Corporation TSR 2 XR220 taken in the morning sun on a rare outing outside her hangar at the RAF Cosford 2015 airshow.
The Following is taken from the museum website:
Although never developed beyond the prototype stage, the British Aircraft Corporation TSR2 was one of the most exciting and controversial British combat aircraft designs of the 1960s. The cancellation of the project is a subject of great debate to this day.
During the mid 1950s, the increasing sophistication of air defence systems led the RAF to consider the procurement of a high speed, low level strike and reconnaissance aircraft to replace the English Electric Canberra. In October 1957, the Ministry of Supply released the first specification for such an aircraft.
On 1 January 1959 the Ministry of Supply announced a design had been selected for production. Christened the TSR2 (Tactical Strike and Reconnaissance Mach 2), this aircraft was developed by a joint design team. A contract for eleven TSR2 prototypes was concluded on 6 October 1960, the first (XR219) made its maiden flight from Boscombe Down on 27 September 1964.
By 31 March 1965 XR219 had completed twenty-four flights, and a second, the aircraft you see here, was to join the programme. Initial reports indicated that the TSR2 was an outstanding technical success. However political opposition to the project led to it being cancelled from 6 April 1965.

A new year, renewing contract. She signed herself into my power. Every letter, every stroke of her pen was a surrender—her breath, her thoughts, her very essence now bound to my will. She is no longer just an amazing capable woman; she is a vessel, a creation of my command, ready to be shaped, molded, and used. Her soul dances to my rhythm, and in her submission, I find my absolute control. She belongs to me —completely, utterly, and without question.

In 1894, Miss Mary Lowry, then the sole teacher at Hyde Park School, bought a lot at 4001 Avenue C. In 1903, she contracted with William Voss, Sr., to construct a one-story frame house for $1300.
Miss Lowry was one of the few women in the early days of Hyde Park who worked outside the home for a living. She earned the affection of a generation of students for her willingness to toll the school bell as long as it took to prevent a single child from being counted as tardy.
The Lowry House displays the characteristics of the Queen Anne style: the frieze of small spindles, the lacy brackets, and the turned porch columns. It was restored in 1979 and later renovated and expanded. Newer elements include the deep red brick chimneys on fireplaces and the addition. The Mary Lowry House is a City of Austin Historic Landmark.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, the Hyde Park Historic District includes an eclectic mixture of architectural styles, from late 19th-century Queen Anne and Classical Revival homes to 20th-century bungalows and ranch houses. Additionally, many of the houses and buildings in Hyde Park have been designated City of Austin Historic Landmarks and Texas Historic Landmarks.

After having to double Brookfield hill due to snow-covered slippery rail, a heavy Columbia coal train is moving again and rolling through Nashotah, Wisconsin.
This was during a time in which the Chicago & North Western had the contract for the Columbia power plant out near Portage, and these trains were routed over the Canadian Pacific out of Chicago through Milwaukee and were usually powered by some of the C&NWs newest diesel locomotives. – January 22nd, 1995 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
Congress finally appropriated $20,000 for a lighthouse at Port Sanilac in 1885, and a site was selected and purchased. After specifications for the necessary metalwork were prepared, a contract was entered into, and the lantern room and spiral staircase were delivered to the Detroit lighthouse depot on October 1, 1885. Charles Diem, the contractor charged with erecting the brick tower and keeper’s dwelling, commenced work on June 7, 1886, and by the end of that month had made excavations for the structures, had put in place the concrete foundation for the dwelling and a portion of the four-feet-thick concrete foundation for the tower, and had laid about one-half of the stone foundation walls for the dwelling. The tower, dwelling, privy, and oil house were completed on October 13, 1886, and the station’s fixed white light, produced by a fourth-order, Barbier & Fenestre Fresnel lens, was placed in operation a week later on October 20, 1886. The work of grading, filling, and sodding the grounds, along with building a perimeter fence, laying sidewalks, and digging and lining a well was finished on October 23.
Situated 130 feet from the lakeshore, octagonal Port Sanilac Lighthouse stands fifty-nine feet tall and is connected to the nearby two-story keeper’s by a covered passageway. The eight-room dwelling had two, 2,200-gallon brick cisterns built beneath its kitchen that were used to collect rainwater for domestic use. Ile aux Galets Lighthouse is the only tower that resembles the one at Port Sanilac.

The Volkswagen Beetle is a two-door, four passenger, rear-engine economy car manufactured and marketed by German automaker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003.
The need for this kind of car, and its functional objectives, was formulated by the leader of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, who wanted a cheap, simple car to be mass-produced for his country's new road network. Hitler contracted Ferdinand Porsche in 1934 to design and build it. Porsche and his team took until 1938 to finalise the design.
The result was one of the first rear-engined cars since the Brass Era. With 21,529,464 produced, the Beetle is the longest-running and most-manufactured car of a single platform ever made.

Every year we take a trip to Cornwall in the Autumn. This year was no exception but a little different as we stayed on Bodmin Moor rather than on the Fowey Estuary. It was a trip of many facets, house hunting, walking but for me the last photo assignment of the year. I was to take images of fungus for my client in a Forestry Commission Plantation called "Halvana"
With war looming on the horizon at the beginning of the 20th Century, Britain could no longer rely on timber imports. Woodland resources in England covered just 5% of land area by 1917, due to demands during the First World War (especially trench warfare). In 1919 the Forestry Act came into force and Conifer plantations like Halvana were established to ensure a strategic reserve of timber. It is unfortunate that many of the ancient broadleaved woodland areas around England were cleared to make way for the faster-growing Conifer trees.
Whilst some plantations are gradually being replanted with native species, Halvana Plantation remains as a fascinating stretch of woodland to amble through and explore. The interior of evergreen plantations have a tendency to be dry dead places, due to the needles blocking out light and suffocating the forest floor. This forest is the complete opposite, with an endless carpet of moss creeping over everything, including up the trunks of trees and a huge selection of fungus spices.
So, off we went to Bodmin Moor with my new work camera in tow (Pentax 645Z Medium Format) more about this later, with my usual old Pentax K5II to take the very few snaps on our days out.
Here is the lush, green Halvana forest in all its moss covered glory.....the weather was typical of Bodmin Moor at this time of the year, one minute sunny but breezy and the next, torrential rain with flash flooding but in our converted stone cow shed with a wood burner we stayed toasty and warm. A fabulous trip, full of interest and wonderful Autumn colour.
Stony Point Lighthouse, the oldest on the Hudson, marked the entrance to the Hudson Highlands for nearly a hundred years and was built in 1826, the result of a contract between Thomas Phillips, of New York City, and Jonathan Thompson, Superintendent of Lighthouses.

The loading on this train apparently varies quite a lot, it would have to be a light load when I went for it!
Just another from this morning out on this great little shortline.
With two classic GE four motor units for power, the diminutive Fore River Transportation Co. is a delightful little gem of a railroad and a throwback to 1990s New England Railroading. Despite being only 2 1/2 miles long the little pike manages to offer a few really nice photo angles and is always worthy of a morning trackside.
Having begun their day pulling outbound cars from Twin Rivers, the crew then did a bit of switching to build their outbound train for interchange with CSXT in Braintree yard. After the crew took a short break, FRVT B23-7 101 blt Jul. 1979 as Conrail 1992) headed out on their short mainline run down to the junction with the MBTA/Keolis Greenbush Branch at Shipyard interlocking. They are seen here passing the 750 ft long siding/runaround as they approach the Adams Street crossing and the junction with the 'T' mainline is just under a thousand feet behind me around the curve.
Fore River Railroad is the underlying owner of the railroad and holds the common carrier obligations for the line, but operation of it is contracted out. In the late 80s and through the 90s the line was operated by the Quincy Bay Terminal, an affiliate of New Hampshire's New England Southern, but in 2000 FRVT took over. FRVT is a Class III railroad owned by its largest customer, Twin Rivers Technology LLC, a manufacturer of industrial inorganic chemicals (rendering of glycerin, fatty acids). Twin Rivers purchased the former Proctor & Gamble soap plant in 1994 and in 2007 the company was purchased by FGV a Malaysian Global Agribusiness company that was originally and arm of the Malaysian government agency FELDA but was taken public in 2012.

Voor het overbrengen en rangeren met terzijde gestelde NS materieel sluit NS speciale contracten af. Jarenlang werd dit door Volkerrail gedaan, maar het nieuwe contract is recent gewonnen door Strukton Rail. Deze heeft onder andere hiervoor twee ex-700den van NS overgenomen. Op donderdagochtend werd een sleep DD-AR rijtuigen van de Dijksgracht naar de Houtrakpolder gesleept. Vanaf emplacement Aziëhaven ging het geduwd achter de Strukton Rail 704 richting de HCT, waar de rijtuigen uit het spoor getakeld worden. Later zullen deze rijtuigen in het schip Rosanne gehesen worden om dan afgevoerd te worden richting de sloper in Vlaardingen.

Route 28 was retained with existing 61/62-reg Volvo B9TLs from route 295 which was lost to Metroline last October. The new contract begins on the 30th of April but that hasn't stopped Tower Transit converting the 28 to its new allocation early...

Prior to the creation of Lincoln County, the Mescalero Apache occupied this region. They were confined to a reservation near Fort Stanton in 1873 and to their present reservation, only partly in Lincoln County, in 1883. Much of the commerce of late-19th century Lincoln County consisted of government contracts to provide food and other commodities to the Mescalero and to the soldiers at Fort Stanton. Hispanics from northern New Mexico began moving into the region in the 1850s.
Lincoln County was named in honor of President Abraham Lincoln. The county was created in 1869 when Soccoro County was divided into two with Lincoln county in the east. At the time, it was the largest county in area in the United States. The county boundaries were often modified and reduced until 1909 when the present-day boundaries were established.
In the late 1870s, the Lincoln County War began between ranchers and the owners of the county's largest general store. William Bonney, better known as Billy the Kid, became involved on the side of the ranchers after his friend and employer was killed. In the end, Bonney killed the county sheriff, a deputy, and the deputy that killed his friend. Several other people were slain in the conflict, which included the other leader of the rancher faction. His death ended the conflict. In 1878, the new territorial governor, retired Union General Lew Wallace, offered amnesty to the combatants to bring a long-lasting truce between the factions.
This is another interesting old home in Lincoln, New Mexico. If you have never driven through LIncoln you will really enjoy the trip!

Aside from the Olympians, these are the most interesting vehicles in the Barnetts fleet. I believe they landed in the Barnetts yard some time in 2018, to be used on private school contracts however he never ended up using them, i'm guessing they required double deckers for the run, hence the buy-out of ex Lothian B7TLs. And since 2018, they've just been sitting here, doing nothing at all. I would've thought he would've sold or scrapped them by now, but no, they're still here earning their keep for a bit. I do wonder the next time they do a "scrapping spree", and if these will be apart of it...
Seen in the Barnetts depot is YX02LFM, a 2002 MAN ALX300 new as East Yorkshire 322, i believe this was part of batch new for the 41 Greatfield service however i may be wrong.
