This was one of those winter days, too warm for winter, too cold for spring :). But since it was nice and sunny for few hours, I took a little walk to the Zelezna Studnicka area near Bratislava.

Crossing the Seine by ferry.
Two weeks ago we started our journey to Bretagne (we love taking the ferry across) and got home Saturday. The mobile and internet were spotty so I posted little but now I can share .It was a lovely break and we were able to keep to ourselves and have a wonderful time.
When the show closes down, the great horde moves from the convention center to downtown. I had to shoot a pano to cover the intersection of Harbor Drive and 5th. And this crossing takes roughly 5-10 minutes, and is only one of dozens. We have traffic cops directing everything by hand. We're like migrating wildebeest.
SDCC is like diving into the mosh pit of fandom. Or, alternatively, it's the all-nations powwow of fandom. We don't discriminate. Even against mundanes. :)
Sightseers and a learner driver in a four-year old Datsun Cherry cross the newly opened Humber Bridge towards Barton-upon-Humber (that's the Hessle tower in the background). As a child with an interest in such things, I persuaded my Dad to take me to see the bridge when it opened. I was amazed at the sheer scale of the thing. I still have a souvenir book I bought about the bridge from this visit. I took a few photos on my Dad's new Pentax ME super, of which this is one; I was still using a Kodak 'Instamatic' at this time.

Arriva Cross Country Turbostar 170115 heads towards Whittlesea on the outskirts of the town by the crossing on Aliwal Road.
We (Marra Man and I) suffered a bit of a soaking here - and all for a Turbostar! Meanwhile, Silson Roadrunner took the sensible option and took cover in the car! Monday 14.10.13

At the rear of the Royal Train 67006 is seen hurtling past Floriston Crossing just north of Carlisle. On the other end was 67026 "Diamond Jubilee".
I'm not sure whether there was any royalty onboard
There are quite a few photos of this rather gregarious "Crossing the Line" ceremony on board a ship crossing the equator.
These are from an album I got from a antique shop a few years back. It cost me $5 and was full of photos taken (I assume) by a sailor stationed in the South Seas from 1940-1946.

We had four cameras on timers firing @ us, it was a mess!!! But fun! Lol...
Another year had past, Crossing Bridges 6 this year. Sadly i'll miss out the fun for CB6. I wouldn't be able to join them.
Crossing Bridges is a very nice concept for photographers around the world to meetup and share knowledge, etc. Most importantly to have fun together! If any of you are interested in organzing it in your country and bringing your country to this annual event, feel free to inform me, i'll hook you up with the main organzers.

The mixed train to Silverton, with Denver & Rio Grande Western K-28 #477 in charge heads north over the 130-foot-long, Pratt Deck Truss Bridge known as the ‘High Bridge’ over the Animas River in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
This photograph was captured during a photo shoot on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, organised by Trains Magazine. K-28 locomotive #473 had been re-numbered for the event to portray #477 with Rio Grande ‘speed lettering’ while still working on the D&RGW. The real K-28 #477 was shipped to Alaska during World War II for service on the White Pass & Yukon Route and eventually scrapped in Alaska, never returning to Colorado.
Rob Worland brings number 43 "Clive" across the entrance crossing at the front of the museum. Rob has provided the following details:
This locomotive is one of the best Australian examples of the amusement park railway era, 1920s to
1960s. It has classic steam locomotive lines. It is at home on a circular portable track or meandering
through the grounds of a large facility hauling a very long train.
It is a copy of steam locomotive No.101 built for the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Qld, in 1964.
Built in Brisbane in 1967 for Arthur Birch, the design brief was for a locomotive mechanically
identical to No.101 but as a 2-6-2 and cosmetically dressed to be a 1:3 scale representation of a
backwoods loco like those operated on the three-foot gauge Denver South Park and Pacific Railroad,
USA.
It operated at the Australian Reptile Park, North Gosford, NSW, from 1967 until 1975, on weekends
and part of the school holidays. From 1975 until 1997 with gradually increasing public traffic it
operated weekly at the Smoky Mountain and Grizzly Flats Railroad, Warnervale, NSW. It was then
stored on site. Due to Arthur Birch’s and Len Gaut’s generosity, in 2022 it shifted to the Melbourne
Steam Club.
It was built at Warner, Brisbane, Qld. (adjacent to Qld. Model Engineers site) by Jim Jackson who has
built 27 miniature steam locos, including 1 x 11” gauge, 3 x 12” gauge.
Locomotive details: 1:3 Scale
14 feet 10 inches long including tender, over pulling lines. 2’ 3” wide
11½” driving wheels. 6½” leading wheels and 8” trailing wheels.
Cylinders (2) 4” x 5½”. Piston valves. Baker valve gear. Steam operated drain cocks.
Tractive effort 810 lb Weight in working order 2¼ ton.
In Australia, the Melbourne Steam Club is the only venue specifically set up with a purpose and
culture complementary to Arthur Birch’s wishes for the loco to be on display and carrying public
passengers. The Melbourne Steam Club railway seeks to capture the early twentieth century scene of
express steam locomotives hauling main line trains. In appearance, No.43 matches the passenger cars
regarding height and width. Inspired by the 1960s recorded intentions of the Diamond Valley
Railway, in 1972 the Melbourne Steam Club decided to have a park gauge railway as an integral part
of the proposed museum facility. Passenger services began in March 1993.
No.43 operates on the last Sunday of each month. Another six 12” gauge express steam locos are
being prepared for display or hauling trains.
