Hey look, buddy, I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems.
And the problem I solved, is that there wasn't a Engi in my collection!
everything you see is custum painted by me.
I gave him a batman utility belt, and a piece of paper for the top part of his overal.
I also gave him a custum build level 1 sentry.
And I believe that that's all folks!
so grabe your self a cool beer, and let your sentry do the job!
"Moth - A nocturnal butterfly using the Moon for navigation"
In 2059 a competition was announced by the United Space Initiative to celebrate the upcoming 100 year mark of man's first landing on the moon. The competition was appropriately called "The Race to the Moon". Companies around the world where challenged to build their best "Racer" for a spectacular actual race to the moon, where the winning party would get beneficial property rights and manufacturing contracts on the surface of the Moon. The purpose for this competition was to lift the technology level and speed of the space transports of that era. Many unholy alliances where formed to gather the best scientists, engineers and thinkers. This was to be the starting point of man's colonization of the Moon and beyond.

I've been planning this build since early 2016. Trying designs in LDD. Buying parts. Never quite sure if I would be able to pull it off. From the start I really wanted to build it swooshable and a bonus would be to make it modular as well (being able to detach the fuel tanks from the ship). I think I managed to reach my goals. It's was a struggle to make it sturdy enough. I hade to make the main structure a lot bulkier than I had planned. But all in all. I'm quite pleased with the result. Hope you like it!

Engineer Ross Harrison aboard Cass Scenic Railroad Heisler 6, powering the Durbin Rocket, June 24, 2018.
It's a summer Friday, and McCloud Railway is running its weekly train east to the BNSF interchange at Lookout, California. The train runs with just engineer Malen Johnson; a helper will drive to Lookout and assist him with the switching moves there. The last 34 miles into Lookout are over BNSF-owned track that is operated and maintained by MR.
When this image was exposed at Bartle siding in August 2001, the future was looking bleak. In a couple of years, BNSF would enter into a haulage agreement with Union Pacific that enabled abandonment of the old Great Northern from Lookout west to Hambone. Traffic off MR for BNSF would go to UP at Mount Shasta, and UP would then turn it over to BNSF at Klamath Falls, Oregon. The last McCloud Railway train to Lookout ran in December 2003.
Ultimately, MR stopped hauling freight entirely in mid-2006. All its trackage east of McCloud is now abandoned and dismantled. For now, BNSF has left a couple miles of the line west of Lookout in place. This spur to nowhere is used periodically for car storage.

A Saturday in the Warrington area. Red Bank for 66754 and 66760 on 1Z24. Got done by cloud. 66155 followed it and of course that was in full sun! Then a move to Winwick for the rest of the day. 66620 came on an engineers train, 56087 came light from Carnforth - Carnforth which terminated at Crewe. There was a 5Z07 Crewe Gresty Bridge - Kingmoor. Expected 68001. Came with 66429! Anyway, here is 66620 working the 11:42 Euxton Jn - Crewe Basford Hall past Winwick 30/7/16
I love how this one came out! It took a lot of hard work. It is loosely based off of the BF3 engineer class. But mainly this fig was built to show off my Ak-47 mod. Enoy!
Two budding engineering students deep in discussion as they head back to college. Bacolod City, Philippines.
37196 stabled to the left. This part of the yard was primarily used for departmental trains. Note in the centre left what was referred to as the “ Kip road” with the line of brake vans on it. The siding was on a slight gradient which allowed the van to be run off just by gravity to be used for unfitted engineers workings. Image taken by Bill Wilder. Shared kind permission of the WRMS.
The engineer looks back toward YO yard at Binghamton, NY at the arriving Delaware & Hudson Sea-Land train off in the distance. Disgruntled Conrail from losing this business would not allow interchange between these two railroads to happen on their tracks, which both railroads had rights on. This was also the 3000 mile mark for the journey of this eastward train which required a mandatory 1000 mile inspection of the train. The inspection wasn't allowed on the Conrail tracks, either. The maneuvers at Binghamton were tedious at best. Going west, trains would back into the D&H Conklin yard or back up through YO to change power. East bounds like this one would continue up toward Nolan Road where the D&H power would come off and the NYS&W power added. The inspection would take place and the whole shebang would be backed out onto the Erie main to continue on it's way. Needless to say, minor derailments inching these long trains in reverse were more common than not. On the drawbar is a single flat removed from the previous east bound during the inspection.

Extract from Wikipedia,
The Marina was developed under the ADO 28 codename. It was in production from 1971 to 1980 and thereafter as the moderately face-lifted Ital until 1984 when the Morris name was consigned to history. In Australia, it was known as the Leyland Marina, in New Zealand as the Morris 1.7 (for 1979–81, in face-lifted O-Series form), and in South Africa and North America as the Austin Marina.
In the early 1970s, BL decided that conservative, traditionally-engineered cars would be released under the Morris name, while more adventurous cars would be released as Austins or even as new marques — such as the Austin Allegro and Leyland Princess. As a result, the Marina was unadventurous, making use of tried and trusted BMC components derived from the Morris Minor and MGB, and using mainly Triumph Dolomite transmission and running gear. Intended as a stop-gap design until new products were ready later in the 1970s, it was designed by Roy Haynes, the same man who designed the Ford Cortina Mark II, with which it shares some stylistic similarities. Roy Haynes attempted to put forward a system that many manufacturers now use, that of the common floor pan shared between models; the Marina was designed to be the first car utilising this idea. It was looked on as too radical by the management of British Leyland and after a short while Triumph designer Harry Webster was drafted in to push the project forward, Roy Haynes soon leaving the company. This protracted development period and the numerous changes made to the design by the various people working on it had a major effect on the Marina. It meant that the Marina (a car intended to be basic and conventional) cost more to develop than the Austin Allegro, its technically and aesthetically advanced stablemate. This is often held up as a prime example of British Leyland's poor project and cost management. The engines were the venerable A-Series and B-Series units in 1.3 and 1.8 litre capacities, respectively, with rear wheels being driven through a live axle. It featured torsion bar suspension at the front and leaf-spring suspension at the rear, and five body styles, saloon, estate, coupé, pickup and van, the estate coming about almost one and a half years later in late 1972. The TC versions were equipped with a twin carburettor engine similar to that found in the MG MGB for extra performance. These could be fitted with a body kit from BL Special Tuning comprising front and rear spoilers, alloy wheels, extra lighting and other details. A 1.5-litre diesel version, using an engine developed from the B-Series, was offered in Europe.
The car was popular with families and undemanding car buyers, and was available in the typical BL colours of the day — brown, beige, dark limeflower green, dark blue and a characteristically 1970s purple. It was intended to be a competitor to the generally similar Ford Cortina (and to some extent the smaller Escort); the Vauxhall Viva and later Vauxhall Cavalier; and the Hillman Avenger and Hunter. It shared its basic styling with all these cars, adopting a 'trans-atlantic' look that took elements of car styling from contemporary American cars (especially the front-end treatment in the Marina's case) and offered them at a scale acceptable to the European market. As with its mechanics, the Marina was not intended to be visually innovative or particularly interesting — its Austin Allegro stablemate was the entry in that area of the market.
BL was beset with problems including industrial action throughout the period, and the Marina was one of a number of models that suffered. While the BL workers gradually eroded their own employment, manufacturers in Europe and Japan introduced innovative designs (such as the VW Golf) that the Marina and its like were never likely to compete with. The problems were compounded as the cars which were to replace the Marina and BL's other mid-size offerings were delayed again and again (eventually appearing as the Austin Maestro and Austin Montego only in 1983/4). By this point, the idea of separate Austin and Morris ranges had been abandoned: there was not enough money to develop a full range of rear-wheel-drive Morris cars and an equivalent front-wheel-drive (FWD) Austin range and FWD was becoming increasingly acceptable across the market.
There were changes however, albeit small ones. A facelift in 1975 gave the Marina new radiator grilles, dashboard, seats, suspension modifications and increased soundproofing. The overhead camshaft O-Series engine (that also was also used for Leyland Princess) appeared in 1.7 litre form in 1978 to replace the larger B-Series 1.8 models. A changed grille, including driving lights, a front spoiler and redesigned bumpers and rear lights were added to all models.
Under severe financial strain, BL was bailed out by the government in the late 1970s, and Sir Michael Edwardes was brought in to oversee the company. Under his leadership, BL made an attempt to update the Marina, by enlisting the help of Giorgetto Giugiaro's ItalDesign. ItalDesign, however, did not design the car, which was an in-house product—it merely productionized it. The result of this exercise, the 1980 Morris Ital features large rear lamp clusters and a new front end, but the 1971 vintage of the design was obvious. The Ital lasted four years and was replaced by the Austin Montego in early 1984, thus bringing to an end use of the Morris name on passenger cars.
57311- Institute Of Mechanical Engineers @ Victoria . At the tail end of the Steam Santa Express but with 2 drivers equipped with radios. There is no facility to turn the steam engine around so it will push the 'express' , &&33 may give some help but is also useful if the steam engine were to break down, The drivers with radios keep in contact with the Steam engine by radio.

A technology that has shielded some of NASA’s highest-profile space observatories from potentially harmful molecular contamination is now being evaluated as a possible solution for protecting the Smithsonian Institution’s cultural artifacts and natural-science specimens.
Under a Space Act Agreement with the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History, Nithin Abraham, a thermal-coatings engineer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and museum conservators are testing the effectiveness of the patent-pending Molecular Adsorber Coating, or MAC. Goddard engineers originally created the technology to entrap outgassed molecular contaminants so that they couldn’t adhere to sensitive instruments and components.
Above, NASA Thermal Coatings Engineer Nithin Abraham removes samples treated with a patent-pending adsorber from specimen-storage cabinets at the Smithsonian’s Museum Support Center in Suitland, Maryland, a sprawling storage facility that holds more than 54 million collection items.

This is one of two photographs from 2002 showing Louis Sanderson motor engineers toward the end of it's time operating under the family name which dates back to the 1930's.
I'm assuming fuel sales ended at least five years prior to this photo being taken when there was still quite a high demand for four star petrol. I do believe the three pumps on show are Gilbarco highlines dating back from the 1970's which appear to all have panels for selecting different grades of petrol so I'm almost certain that 2/3/4 star petrol would have been available at one point.
There appears to be two older pumps one of the left of the forecourt and the other on the right under the floodlight which were probably diesel pumps but cannon confirm this.
I'm not sure if the garage was still trading around this time despite two cars on the forecourt.
Today this is Mellors Garage which has operated under this name since 2005/2006
