Taken last summer in Fes, Morocco. The process of turning animal hides into soft colorful leather has remained unchanged since medieval times. Amongst other things, those vats contain dyes, pigeon excrement and cow urine… the smell from where I was standing was quite overpowering!

This is a departure from the normal activities of this road switcher so I thought it was worth posting.

Once the domain of 4 axle EMD products, the march of time has instead found BNSF bringing more power to the table as a group of former Santa Fe dash 9’s was sent in for retrofitting with remote control equipment. Once at home on mainline trains through the high desert, these big GE’s instead populate major yards like Galesburg and Northtown moving long cuts between the various sections of these large facilities. Seen here drilling cars from the south end of the yard, BNSF 627 brings its short train under the ex Soo Line and towards the St Anthony’s Park bridge for its required headroom inside the yard itself.
A passeggio nella Medina - Museo Nejjarine.
L'edifico che ospita il Museo dell'artigianato ligneo si trova in un funduq del XVIII secolo, ovvero una locanda dove i mercanti di passaggio potevano trovare ristoro e alloggiare durante i loro viaggi a Fès.
Al piano superiore si trovavano le stanze dove i mercanti pernottavano, mentre il pianterreno era il luogo dove concludevano i loro affari.
Durante il Protettorato Francese, l'edificio fu trasformato in un commissariato atto a soffocare qualsiasi insorgenza di carattere nazionalista.
Classificato come monumento storico nel 1916, l'edificio fu poi dichiarato Patrimonio dell'Umanità dall'Unesco e fu oggetto di un forte intervento di ristrutturazione nel contesto del programma di conservazione della medina.
Walking in the Medina - Nejjarine Museum.
The building that houses the Museum of Wooden Crafts is located in an 18th century funduq, or an inn where passing merchants could find refreshment and stay during their trips to Fes.
On the upper floor there were the rooms where the merchants stayed overnight, while the ground floor was the place where they concluded their business.
During the French Protectorate, the building was transformed into a police station designed to suffocate any nationalist insurgency.
Classified as a historical monument in 1916, the building was later declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and was the subject of a major renovation as part of the medina conservation program.

SHIP AND TRAVEL SANTA FE ALL THE WAY
Icame across 60 or so sheets of older railroad stationary a while back. I have been posting the letterheads from time to time. I had individual sheets of each of them (no duplicates). A good portion of them are from the 1940's, 1950's and the 1960's. Some of them are a more recent.
Here is one of many more that I will post. To see the ones I have already posted CLICK HERE
