On August 31st, 2023, well known railroader Mike Del Vecchio passed away after a battle with cancer. Although I didn't know Mike too well personally, I never heard a bad word spoken about him. Seen here is him posing as the engineer on #4109 during the United Railroad Historical Society's photo shoot in Boonton.

Winter presents all kinds of interesting challenges as a photographer. The cold, snow, and ice all provide risks and rewards. I decided to brave those elements recently and hiked through a foot of powder to the top of a ridge near Durango, Colorado. My reward was quite special. The last light of the day kissed the top of 12,968 ft. Engineer Mountain while the soft pink light at the end of the day illuminated the snow below in Animas Valley.

This beautiful swinging bench was built by he graduating class of 2010 at Hanover College which was founded in 1827. This beautiful college has only had one major tornado in it's history. The grounds, buildings and landscaping were magnificent. It is written that Texan Woody Harrelson graduated from this college as did Indiana's Mike Pence. Both chose different paths from the same school.

Engineer John Teshara is all smiles as backs Southern Pacific steam locomotive #2472 down the track at Niles Canyon for a photo runby. John was a fireman on this very locomotive in the 1950's when it pulled commuter trains from San Jose to San Francisco. Niles Canyon is located near the city of Sunol, California.

So I've had this one done for awhile. It's like a mashup of the BF3 and BF4 engineer class. I'll have a separate picture of his gun as well. Inspirations will be added. Comments and Criticism are welcome. Kthxbai

Si vous vous aventurez du côté de Remagen, au sud de Bonn, vous tomberez sur une somptueuse gare néo-classique (toujours en fonctionnement) datant du milieu du 19ème siècle, offrant un magnifique panorama sur le Rhin. C’est la gare de Rolandseck, un lieu de rendez-vous des artistes et intellectuels au 19ème siècle ainsi que dans la deuxième moitié du 20ème siècle, transformée, depuis 2007, en musée grâce à l’ajout d’un deuxième bâtiment ultra moderne, perché au dessus sur la falaise.

La gare de Rolandseck, œuvre de l’architecte et ingénieur Emil Hermann Hartwich, a été inaugurée en 1858, à l’âge d’or du chemin de fer. De nombreuses personnalités du monde politique, artistique et culturel s’y retrouvaient. Guillaume Apollinaire a même écrit quelques poèmes, composés à Rolandseck, lors de son séjour en Allemagne entre 1901 et 1902.

Épargnée par les bombardements de la seconde guerre mondiale et tombée en désuétude, la gare devient, en 1964, grâce à un galeriste de Bonn du nom de Johannes Wasmuth, un centre artistique où sont exposées, entre autres, les œuvres de Hans Arp et de son épouse Sophie Taeuber Arp.

Au cours des années 90, Wasmuth convainc le land Rheinland-Pfalz et l’achitecte renommé Richard Meier de transformer le site en musée pour exposer une partie des oeuvres des deux artistes, œuvres léguées par la deuxième épouse de Hans Arp, Marguerite Arp-Hagenbach. C’est ainsi qu’en 2007 est inauguré le Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck.

Avant même d’entrer, on ne se lasse pas d’admirer le bel ensemble qu’offre la façade, ses balcons en fer forgé et sa verrière. Les étages supérieurs comprennant l’ancien hall de gare et les salles d’attente, servent de halls d’exposition et de restaurant.

 

If you venture to Remagen, south of Bonn, you'll come across a sumptuous neoclassical train station (still in operation) dating from the mid-19th century, offering a magnificent panorama of the Rhine. This is Rolandseck station, a meeting place for artists and intellectuals in the 19th and second half of the 20th centuries. Since 2007, it has been transformed into a museum thanks to the addition of a second, ultra-modern building perched above on the cliff.

Rolandseck station, the work of architect and engineer Emil Hermann Hartwich, was inaugurated in 1858, during the golden age of the railway. Many prominent figures from the worlds of politics, art, and culture used to gather there. Guillaume Apollinaire even wrote a few poems, composed in Rolandseck, during his stay in Germany between 1901 and 1902.

Spared from the bombings of the Second World War and having fallen into disuse, the station became, in 1964, thanks to a Bonn gallery owner named Johannes Wasmuth, an art center where, among other things, the works of Hans Arp and his wife Sophie Taeuber Arp were exhibited.

During the 1990s, Wasmuth convinced the state of Rheinland-Pfalz and the renowned architect Richard Meier to transform the site into a museum to exhibit some of the works of the two artists, works bequeathed by Hans Arp's second wife, Marguerite Arp-Hagenbach. Thus, in 2007, the Arp Museum Bahnhof Rolandseck was inaugurated. Even before entering, one never tires of admiring the beautiful ensemble offered by the façade, its wrought iron balconies and its glass roof. The upper floors, including the former station hall and waiting rooms, serve as exhibition halls and a restaurant.

This pair would probably have caused most SOO engineers to book off sick. I really have no information about it whatsoever except the date June 1, 1968 so the U-boat was brand new .The slide was either traded for or bought and is in my collection. No photographer name is on it to give credit to. It probably came from Richard Wallin but who actually took it is a mystery.

After photographing the DATS overhead line test train making its way back to base at Rectory Junction I started to walk home. However, a fellow photographer I passed informed me that new celebrity HST power car 43102 was on the rear of 1B63, 16:45 Nottingham – St Pancras due in about fifteen minutes. Despite the rapidly failing light I decided to wait for it and this is the result, 2nd March 2021.

 

Locomotive History

43102 was built at Crewe Works and entered service in October 1978. It was one of a batch of sixty six power cars built to power thirty two, eight coach HST sets for Eastern Region services and was initially formed as part of set 254024. Following the completion of ECML electrification 43102 was one of twenty eight class 43 power cars allocated to Western Region although it was allocated to the pool for West Coast Main Line services between Euston and Holyhead. The HST sets for these West Coast services were supplied by the Western Region and the services commenced in September 1991. In April 1992 it transferred into the general Western Region power car pool and this was followed by a transfer into the Cross Country pool in May 1995 allocated to Laira. In September 2003 it was placed in store at MOD Bicester and remained in store until the summer of 2004 when it transferred to the Great North Eastern Railway fleet and returned to East Coast Main Line duties. It was admitted to the Brush works, Loughborough in January 2008 to be “re-engineered” and has had its original Paxman Valenta engine replaced by a MTU unit. It re-entered service on the East Coast Main Line in April 2008 re-numbered 43302. It is of course the world speed record holder for diesel traction having reached a speed of 148mph during bogie tests in November 1987.

 

.Following withdrawal in May 2021 it has been acquired by the National Railway Museum and is currently (April 2025) at Locomotion, Shildon.

Locomotive History

During the Second World War, the War Department was persuaded by Hunslet that a simplified version of their more modern 50550 design would be the solution to its needs for a 0-6-0 shunting engine. The first was completed by Hunslet at the start of 1943 and assisted by Andrew Barclay Sons & Co., W. G. Bagnall, Hudswell Clarke, Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns and the Vulcan Foundry three hundred and seventy seven had been built for the War Department by 1947. Production continued for industrial use until 1964 by which time four hundred and eighty five locomotives had been built.

198 was built by the Hunslet Engine Co. in 1953 (Works No. 3798) for the Ministry of Defence but did not enter service until 1956 when it worked at the General Stores Sub-Depot at Steventon. It then moved to Central Ordnance Depot, Bicester in 1958 and finally to HQ Engineer Resources at Long Marston in 1961. Following a long period in store she was restored to working order and given the name Royal Engineer in 1971. A further overhaul followed in 1987/88 and when withdrawn from service in 1991 was the last operational steam locomotive owned by the Army. 198 was part of a collection of railway items acquired by the Royal Corps of Transport Museum Trust for eventual display at a new museum under development at Chatham. As an interim measure it was placed on loan to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway and, following the fitting of Westinghouse air brake equipment, was put to work on passenger services. In May 2008 the National Army Museum transferred the ownership to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway.

Photography skillz sux, i know.

 

OMFG. FINALLY DONE. I planned to give him an AKS but ended up with a PP-2000 because my Ak shipment went missing XD

 

The partizan is, supposed to break the stereotypical Dark green base , which is the Gorka Summer Uniform, this ( brown base) is the Gorka Autumn Uniform, which appears in-game as Premium Camo 1. The vest is supposed to be the M37 Tarzan with some AR mags and utility pouches thrown on them! ( Totally from Jon)

 

The gloves are sculpted to look like what I get when I search "RUSSIAN MILITARY GLOVES" on google images XD.

 

The gasmask, vest, pouches and boots are completely sculpted, but the light makes the gas mask looks like shit, but it looks 10 times better irl.

 

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, especially 2 weeks of hard work. Especially the C4s which you can see on the left.

 

Thanks to Joel and Jon for the advice!

 

And I won't be uploading as frequently nowadays as I don't really have time to work on customs cuz it's my streaming year, exams bruh,

 

And note: Moar ppl will be tagged in this pic because I really want advice on the camo before I move on to other RU classes!

 

-Enjoy! And holeh moleh. 6 moar followers to 300?
