Is for humans & dogs
The silver part at the bottom screws off, and is a water bowl for your dog to have a drink of water, as you enjoy a nice hot coffee whilst out and about.
We always take a bottle of water with us for our dogs.
Tracey got it yesterday from Costco.

This ornate flask was made to carry finely ground gun powder for the priming of gun locks. The intricate carvings of hunting hounds and game animals locked in mortal combat indicate it was probably used with a hunting rifle.

Upon arrival to Sellafield the used fuel rods will be processed and stored there long term. Note the use of 3 FNA flasks, somthing that hasn't happened since 2021 making for a nice change to the usual one or two.

With that round thing on top of this building, it reminded me of those flask. Also, it was the same shape of the bottle of alcohol Travis brought over on his trip.

Rumbling towards Bentley Heath Crossing, 66431 leads an ensemble of Mk2 barrier vehicles and a KUA MODA double bogie wagon south along the Chiltern Mainline with 6Z22 Kingmoor Sidings to Kineton MOD.
Having hoped it would be a flask train, it was disappointing to find out it would be a rake of JNA's. However, it gave me the chance to see one of DRS's new locos. Here, 66091 passes Rugeley Trent Valley with 6Z73 Sellafield BNF to Wembley TC, with 20 JNA's in tow.
Flasks and escort coach to Devonport Royal Dockyard, for nuclear submarine servicing. At date of posting I don't think the flasks have come back, and if I knew the date I couldn't tell you! Escort coaches (ie armed guards) are only used when high grade nuclear material, eg spent fuel, is being carried. Though in all probability the flasks were empty on the run down and will be full on return.
