The old railway bridge now a foot bridge across the River Hull, it was built about 1885 on Bankside near to Air Street Kingston upon Hull, with the control cabin. 20th September 2020
Looking strangely familiar, this is John Murphy's NBC green Leyland Octopus subtly re-liveried to recall a similar vehicle previously operated by the Castrol Oil Company. With its deep front bumper - distinguishing it from Albion and Dodge variants with the same cab - the Octopus had real presence and, I believe, suits this livery very indeed. Once again, thanks to Dave Stickland for the base image (23-Dec-16).

Something unusual to post. These were out near a larger out of buisness gas station. If you look closely you can see ghost signs beneath the Pepsi paint. Coke and of course Diet Coke! I guess Pepsi won!

A few weeks ago I came across this old tanker trailer parked in a field between Glentham and Market Rasen.
I do believe it's been here for a good few years and no doubt more recently connected to one of the nearby farms although I feel it's no longer used.
I do believe going further back in time this had been a fuel tanker as fragments of an old colour scheme are still visible in places with a suggestion that this may have been an Amoco tanker back in the day.
A fantastic view of Command Module 103 (CM-103) during assembly & testing at North American Aviation’s (NAA) Downey, CA facility. Possibly bldg. 290?
Excessive elaboration to confirm/prove my identification of it as CM-103 accompanies the below linked photos. In lieu, suffice it to say that the look/configuration of certain forward compartment components visible here, along with markings, which, like fingerprints, are unique to each CM, confirm it to be a Block II capsule, which eventually flew on Apollo 8.
The dangling hoses from the fixture partially encircling the Command Module are all pneumatic, and the exposed tanks/vessels visible within the exposed aft compartment, other than the one clearly labeled “WASTE WATER TANK”, are Reaction Control System related. So, this ‘station’ may be to pressure test those tanks/vessels. What I initially thought was the framework of the overhead structure are the myriad of feed lines to each hose position!
Additionally, per an ‘H-Missions’ Command/Service Module News Reference, at:
www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/CSM16_Reaction_Control_Subsystem_pp1...
which may or may not be applicable (I choose to think it is):
“The [CM reaction control] system consists of two independent, redundant systems, each containing six engines, helium and propellant tanks, and a dump and purge system. The two systems can operate in tandem; however, one can provide all the impulse needed for the entry maneuvers and normally only one is used.”
Further, per figure/plate P-200 within the above document, the two nearly adjacent tanks closest to the camera are fuel tanks, System 1 on the left, System 2 on the right. The smaller single tank to the right is the System 2 Helium tank. The panel of plastic wrapped/capped? connections farther to the right may then be fuel line connections to the yet-to-be installed yaw jets below it. To the left of the waste water tank are, left-to-right, System 1 & System 2 oxidizer tanks. Finally, the four connected pneumatic lines are at, appropriately enough, the ‘fuel servicing panel’.
A rare, obscure & stunning photograph that somehow fortunately survived.
Compare/contrast. Awesome:

And its goodbye Nagasaki as the Westerdam has passed under Megami Bridge and is entering open waters of the East China Sea on the way to our next stop, Kagoshima, Japan.
This fuel tank caught my eye at the Newmarket Harley Davidson dealership. This is 3 exposures with -1+ stops bracketing, then Photomatix for HDR and tonemapping, and finally Photoshop for the finishing touches.
I was in the mood for a little adventure, so I decided to take my bike out for some nighttime driving. I had been at work all day and wanted to relax a bit before going back home. So as I rode on down this dark street, my thoughts wandered from what's happening in the world.

I was fortunate enough to spend the weekend in the company of 100 Cub Scouts at Space Center Houston. We camped inside the visitor center and the boys enjoyed various space-related science projects, talks and a movie. This morning, we took the JSC tour and saw Mission Control, the Astronaut Training Facility and the Rocket Park which has a wonderful Saturn 5 in its own building. This is the top of one of the third stage fuel tanks. A splash of HDR pulls out the texture rather nicely (IMHO).

Despite the French maintaining for years that NASA had copied the Sacre Coeur church in Paris when designing and building the Space Shuttle, NASA has always refused to accept that it got its inspiration from a building whose founding stone was laid as far back as 1870.
In a typical gesture of French superiority, a full-size mock-up of the space shuttle has been constructed at Montmartre in order to juxtapose the striking similarities between the two structures. Understandably the Americans are not very happy about what they consider to be blatant plagiarism of their intellectual property.
" Mais non!! Is not plagiarism" states Pierre Lespace, a high ranking official in the French government. "Ah these Americans you know, always they are so veery, very touchy. They steal our idea, we are simply stealing it back! If they don't like it, qu’ils mangent de la brioche !*"

The GT 1300 Junior Zagato was a limited production two seater coupe with aerodynamic bodywork by Zagato (Ercole Spada) of Milan. The model evoked the earlier, race-oriented Giulietta Sprint Zagatos which featured aluminium bodywork and had a very active competition history. However, the Junior Zagato featured a steel bodyshell with an aluminium bonnet and aluminium doorskins (on the earlier 1300 JZ's). The 1300 JZ was not specifically intended for racing and did not see much use in competition. The 1300 JZ was first seen in public at the Turin Motor Show of 1969. In total 1,108 units were constructed of which 2 were destroyed during production because the bodyshells were not within specification. The 1300 was based on the floorpan, driveline and suspension of the 1300 Spider. However, the floorpan was shortened behind the rear wheels to fit the bodyshell. The last 1300 Junior Zagato was produced in 1972 although in 1974 2 more cars were built according to the records.
In 1972 the 1600 Zagato came out of which 402 units were produced. In this case the floorpan was unaltered from the 1600 Spider, so that the normal fueltank could be left in place. As a consequence, the 1600 Zagato is approximately 100 mm (3.9 in) longer than the 1300 JZ. This can be seen at the back were the sloping roofline runs further back and the backpanel is different and lower. The lower part of the rear bumper features a bulge to make room for the spare tire. The 1600 Zagato has numerous differences when compared to the 1300 Junior Zagato. If you ever see two side by side, have a look at the details. The last 1600 Zagato was produced in 1973 and the cars were sold until 1975.

Originally built for Western Australia Government Railways all three locomotives were scrapped in July 2014.
K205 and K206 built in Queensland in 1966 and K210 in 1969.
The K class deliveries represented the first locomotives to run across the length of Australia, passing through 5 States on their deliveries from Qld to WA.
Permission visit to the 237m long Inchindown tanks hidden in the hill from the Nazis for WW2. They was used to store fuel safe from the German bombers and was last used to fuel some of the ships for the Falklands war in 1982. Since then they have been left empty and it now holds the record for the longest echo in the world.
It was quiet an experience to hear the echo inside the tank. The mark on the ceiling running the length of the tank is where they filled the 12m high tank to.
This was a permission visit and can easily be obtained by the group looking after them.
BSA's adventure began in 1861, in England, the company being founded by fourteen gunsmiths of the Birmingham Small Arms Trade Association, who had supplied arms to the British government during the Crimean War. As the gun trade declined, they began to manufacture bicycles in 1880. The first motorcycle was produced in 1903 and the first automobile prototype saw the light in 1907.
The BSA automobile was, for sure, a success, if we take into consideration the fact that in 1908 there were already 150 vehicles on the streets. In 1920, the company bought some assets of the Aircraft Manufacturing Company and a year later returned to the love for cars, being proud of its four-cylinders models.
During the World War I and II, the company produced a lot of rifles, shells and motorcycles for the troops and post-war, BSA expanded the range of goods it manufactured. From 1937, it supplied 126,000 M20 motorcycles to the armed forces. In 1951, the BSA Group bought Triumph Motorcycles, increasing their fame and production and in 1954 entered a team of riders in the 200 mile Daytona beach race where the bikes took first, second, third, fourth, and fifth places. Ten years later, BSA gained fame in motocross, thanks to Jeff Smith and his B40.
