Work in progress in the foundry at the Sandaoling mining complex. If you were lucky when passing by, you could hear the thump of the big hammers, and then it was definitely worth taking a peek inside.

Following Saturday’s Branch Line Society organised ‘Shooter’s Swan Song’ tour of rare metals around the Chiltern Railway area, Sunday 15th January 2023 saw Hanson & Hall’s 50008 ‘Thunderer’ take the ECS from the tour back to Gascoigne Wood Sidings. Booked to leave at 13:58, departure Chaddesden was 21 mins early, with this being 13 early passing through Derby. I hope there was sufficient fuel for the full run!

Founded in the most famous Russian industrialists Stroganov Satka iron foundry was founded in 1756. The factory belonged to Count Stroganov, and then his son Stroganov. November 19, 1758 in blast furnace iron was obtained first.
Built for (and won) the Eurobricks Pirate Community Build. Pretty difficult to be limited to only 16x16 studs, but I did my best.

Drab and dreary in comparison to the interstellar tankers, spacecraft in the giant orbital foundries were nonetheless essential. The intense heat and chemical corrosion would burn and erode any fancy paint job and so these ships were left in their bare metal.
Front to back are the following: a main-dynamo replacement carrier, a fuel-core carrier and a medium heat-exchanger tug.
Anakin, Padme, R2-D2 and C-3PO have infiltrated the Separatist droid foundry on Geonosis and are ambushed by the Geonosians! Pull the pins to shut the door and drop the heroes onto the conveyor belt. Turn the wheel to move the conveyor belts and help them escape through the assembly line! Watch out for swinging robot arms, stomping presses, and chopping blades! Use the swiveling robot arm to assemble the droids. C-3PO has lost his head! Attach R2-D2's rocket boosters and turn the knob on the tower to have him fly to the rescue! Rearrange the assembly modules to create your own foundry layout.
Includes Anakin Skywalker, Padme, R2-D2, C-3PO, one Geonosian with stud shooter, and 4 battle droids.

National Coal Board's Vulcan Foundry "Austerity" 0-6-0ST No 33 (VF 5306/1945) passing Bankhouse crossing enroute from the Colliery to the exchange sidings at Southside - c.1969.
No 33 spent many years at Broomhill Colliery, but was sent to Ashington Works in 1966 for overhaul, and whilst there was fitted with a Giesel ejector (and an Ashington smoke eliminator). On completion VF 5306 moved to Whittle and was there from February 1966 to May 1972. It was out of use in late 1971 due to piston failure and returned to Ashington in May the following year for assessment, repairs were not effected. The loco was inspected by the Tanfield Railway with a view to it being preserved, but despite the boiler being in first class condition, this did not progress. It was scrapped in 1973.

Visited the foundry in Sunderland this afternoon where they're casting new railings for Sunderland Minster.
Specialist Castings Ltd., the former Jennings Foundry, has a long history on Wearside stretching back 80 years and this afternoon, they were pouring molten metal into moulds, re-creating the original railing design.
This has been achieved by making moulds from a section of the railing around the Minster grounds.
The work is part of the Townscape Heritage Scheme which is seeing a number of projects underway after Sunderland City Council was successfully awarded £1.9m from the Heritage Lottery Fund.
One of the projects underway is on the site of what was the historic village of Bishopwearmouth, part of the Bishopwearmouth Conservation Area.
The work, includes landscaping, new paving, lighting, street furniture and planting.

Irrigation helps maximize strawberry yields in several ways. Regular watering produces large plants with large leaf surfaces, which in turn produce more flowers and later, more fruit. The practice also helps establish new plantings and runner rooting. www.gov.mb.ca/agriculture/crops/production/fruit-crops/pr...
Established in 1570, the Whitechapel Bell Foundry is Britain's oldest manufacturing company. Specialising in the casting of church/tower bells, the foundry has been based at its current premises since 1738.
The foundry is most famous for casting Big Ben and the original Liberty Bell.
In December 2016, the foundry announced that they would cease activities at their Whitechapel Road site in May 2017 – the foundry buildings have been sold to an anonymous developer.

A deserted foundry workshop within Rathmalana locomotive works in Sri Lanka on a very hot February day.
I had arrived at Rathmalana during the workers lunch break which was extremely annoying as the foundry was like a ghost town.
Large scale production doesn't really take place here but lots of components are, including all the brake shoes for the locomotives and rolling stock. Bottom left shows a number of brake components recently poured and in their moulds left out to cool.
The activity of the workers in a small artisanal foundry of aluminium (Madagascar).
From the heart of Madagascar’s highlands comes a craft both timeless and essential.
In this part of the country, small artisanal foundries turn recycled aluminum from cans, scrap metal and bolts into pots, pans and decorative pieces like lemurs, zebus and baobabs.
Artisans melt aluminum in brick furnaces heated by charcoal, pour it into hand-carved sand molds and polish each piece to a brilliant shine.
This tradition began over a century ago when aluminum has been introduced to the town after World War I.
This legacy continues today in family-run workshops.
