With plenty of GW vintage infrastructure on display, a Conductor passes her time beneath the splendid platform awning at Leamington Spa station while waiting for her next turn to arrive.
Meanwhile an arrival of a different sort gingerly approaches on the through road - GBRf Shed 66771 rounds the curve with what might be the Westbury - Cliffe Hill Stud Farm (6M40) engineers' working. Any better info appreciated!

Just a simple candid street style Snapograph captured at London UK of a guy going about his important business of helping to keep our streets clean.

“The way I see it, hard times aren't only about money,
or drought,
or dust.
Hard times are about losing spirit,
and hope,
and what happens when dreams dry up.”
The Atomium is a landmark building in Brussels, Belgium, originally constructed for the 1958 Brussels World's Fair (Expo '58). It is located on the Heysel/Heizel Plateau in Laeken (northern part of the City of Brussels), where the exhibition took place. Nowadays, it is the city's most popular tourist attraction, and serves as a museum, an art centre and a cultural place.
Designed by the engineer André Waterkeyn and the architects André and Jean Polak, it stands 102 metres (335 ft) tall. Its nine 18-metre-diameter (59 ft) stainless steel clad spheres are connected in the shape of a unit cell that could represent an iron crystal magnified 165 billion times. Tubes connecting the spheres enclose stairs, escalators and an elevator (in the central, vertical tube) to allow access to the six visitable spheres, which contain exhibit halls and other public spaces. The top sphere includes a restaurant with a panoramic view of Brussels. The building was completely renovated between 2004 and 2006
My first ride in the cab of a steam locomotive. The engineer was kinda young. Niles Canyon Railway near Sunol, California.

Trona Railway EMD SD40T-2 2005 idles as the engineer, Marvin, waits for the conductor to throw the switch at the Borosolvay Yard. Me, Peyton and Denis patiently waited for them to run up the hill towards Searles but unfortunately they only did switching the whole day before the sun went down. The 2005 compared to the 2004 and 2006 has the most noticeable traces of the former Southern Pacific speed lettering on the car body section of the tunnel motor which is a cool sight for anyone going to see the Trona.
Brittle stars, an alternate common name is the 'serpent stars', are a species-rich class of echinoderms with outstanding regenerative abilities. Living under rocks or in crevices with only the tips of the arms exposed, they are known to be seafloor ecosystem engineers. They reshape the seafloor sediment surface and influence the distribution of other seafloor species. They also provide nutrition to fish, sea stars and crab predators.
Their presence in a sediment sample is one indicator of a healthy benthic community. They embody nature's fragility and resilience.

The title refers to the only engineer's name that I automatically recall from a classic Dr Who episode. Unfortunately Engineer Eckersley was a bad 'un, in league other bad 'uns to steal the valuable mining deposits.

Warmest day so far this year presented a CSX “Powder” Mac in front of a manifest down the former EJ&E. Real friendly crew, called in like 4 people.
The Claymills Victorian pumping station is keen to encourage the next generation of engineers. This young man took us down to the the space above the boilers and explained the restoration project he was working on with his team .

I always hate it when railroaders act like they’re better than everybody else, simply because they work for the railroad. The engineer on the train, apparently disgruntled by the fact we were taking pictures of his train, yelled out his window “get girlfriends”. God forbid people have hobbies
2018 Road Trip to Tuktoyaktuk, NWT via Dempster Highway and the Inuvik-Tuktoyaktuk Highway or ITH (Tuk Highway).
Utah Railway engineer Stu Turner commands the controls of the RUT311 local as it rumbles into North Salt Lake, Utah, on May 15, 2012. Stu was one of the kindest railroaders I've ever met, offering a friendly wave or a trackside chat. He was tragically taken from us in July 2020 due to brain cancer.
This is an old one from the vault. He was a regular personality who rode his tricycle fitted with a mock-up steam engine around the ByWard Market. Haven't seen him around for over 5yrs.
Note: Rocky Mountain is at the old location of ByWard Market.

Just a few figs, I wanted to use the new 2016 Ghostbusters bodies/legs for something.
P.S. I'm trying out a new photo setup, wadda ya think?
(Though I'll probably only use it in winter, because taking pictures outside looks better. :P)
An epic trip - 6-hours, 30-miles from Ouray to Lake City, Colorado - with rough rocky patches, switchbacks, shelf roads, and sweeping vistas all the way, reaching almost 13,000 feet at the summit. A Jeep Badge of Honor trail for good reason.
From TrailsOffroad.com: In the late 1800’s, miners started digging for gold, silver, lead and other ore in the San Juan Mountains. They needed a way to get people and the ore out to the nearby towns. Those roads left by the long-abandoned mines are now some of the most famous off-road trails in the books. Engineer Pass, a 30-mile trail, is one of them and is part of a trail now known as the Alpine Loop.
There are multiple mine ruins to view and explore the grounds of along the way including the Hard Tack Mine and the Michael Breen Mine.
Mile after mile provides new and more amazing views of Colorado and the San Juan mountains. Oh Point and the official summit have breath-taking panoramas of the mountains.
This trail goes well above the timberline at just over 12,900’. With the altitude comes stunning views of the mountains to the north including the Uncompahgre, Coxcomb, Wetterhorn and Wildhorse mountain peaks. The view is so expansive at Oh Point that on a very clear day, you might be able to see all the way to Utah if you turn your eyes to the west.

I went for a bike ride this morning and passed the site of the old Totley Tunnel Box around the same time as an engineers train having run from the Huddersfield area. First time I've seen the new livery in action.

Unbelievably there were /are 9 engineers trains heading East through Teignmouth and Dawlish today. It was in connection with a major engineering project in the Plymouth area. In addition to the bonus services there was a total block situation along the sea wall, this meant that the trains crawled along this stretch of line at 5 mph, the trains could be in line of sight of each other with no signalling knowing they could come to a stop, even in the tunnels. At one point we had two trains on the same track on the sea wall at Dawlish within sight of each other.
66074 eeks its way along the wall with old track forming the 1031 from Hemerdon to Westbury, 70801 had not long disappeared around the corner at Langstone Cliff.
Plenty of walkers along the sea wall burning off the roast spuds. I think everyone of them asked myself and a few other fellow phottwers what was occurring.
'The Institute of Mining Engineers North West Railtour' originated at Crewe and took in ICI Winnington, Hindlow, Buxton, Kelbits Branch, Bickershaw Colliery, Parkside Colliery and Fiddlers Ferry.
We photographed at Kelbits, Bickershaw Colliery and here at Parkside Colliery and it was a tight run thing, a slick opreration no messing about.
Traction throughout was 37706 'Conidae' & 47479 'Track 29' seen here about to depart from Parkside at 17..00 September 21st 1991. Picture taken from the treeless (at the time) M6 embankment.
* At its peak Parkside employed 1800 and potentially 100 million tons of coal were identified. All that of course is history, closure came in March 1993 realising only a fraction of that total. Parkside was the last Pit to close from the once vast Lancashire Coalfield. Nothing remains, to stand here today all you would see is just a forest of trees.
