Winslow Junction used to be one of the busiest New Jersey rail transit points. Nowadays, it's a photographer's paradise. This GE U18B was a former Providence & Worchester unit built in 1976.
97304 “John Tiley” and 97302 pass a flooded Cilcewydd with the heavily-delayed 6W70 Bescot to Talerddig ballast train. With ERTMS being dead due to the wet weather, it's surprising it still managed to run.
97303 and 97301 with Seacows as they prepare to drop ballast from Pen-y-Wern northwards downhill towards Borth.

In September 2015, Jaguar entered the SUV market with the F-Pace offered with petrol or diesel engines and manual or automatic gearboxes. The F-Pace was recently given a make over and is even offered with a 5-litre V8 supercharged petrol engine. People might say it is just a Land Rover Discovery Sport with a different body, not true, yes Jaguar will have asked Land Rover for some advice. In my eyes, the F-Pace looks better than the Rolls Royce Cullinan.

Since 1932, Perkins have been manufacturers of diesel engines for agricultural, marine and construction vehicles as well as diesel engines for power generators. The company was established at Peterborough by engineer Frank Perkins (1889-1967) who provided the business acumen and Charles Chapman (1897-1979), who as the main engineer provided the technical expertise. From the outset F. Perkins Ltd sought to develop more efficient, lighter weight and faster diesel engines. To promote their new engines, they built demonstration racing cars powered by Perkins diesel engines which during the 1930’s broke land speed records for diesel powered cars. In 1968, Perkins purchased L. Gardener & Sons Ltd who were a manufacturer of diesel engines for commercial, marine and military vehicles. Today, Perkins is a subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc and continues to manufacture diesel engines.
This promotional badge for Perkin’s diesel engines depicts the company’s emblem.

In exhaust gas recirculation, some of the exhaust gas is returned to the fresh air intake. The resultant mixture of fresh air and exhaust gas has a lower calorific value in terms of the volume. This lowers combustion chamber temperatures, thus reducing the production of nitrogen oxide (NOx).
