The Palm House at Kew Gardens. I dread to think what the heating bill must be for this building - it has to be kept hot and humid through the coldest weather, with only a single layer of glass to protect it from the elements.

Locomotive History
Originally D1666 it was built at Crewe and entered traffic on the 5th March 1965 allocated to Landore MPD. In 1965 the Western Region decided to name seventeen of the regions class 47 fleet (D1660 – D1676) and D1666 was the first to be named at Cardiff Canton on March 12th 1965. Shortly after D1671 was named Thor it was damaged beyond repair in a collision at Bridgend in December 1965 and the name was transferred to D1677. For the next fourteen years until class 47 locomotive naming recommenced and became commonplace these seventeen class 47’s were the “celebrity” locomotives of the class especially away from the Western Region. It would remain a Western Region engine until November 1972 when it transferred to the London Midland Region for a sixteen month spell before returning to the Western region for another twelve years. The London Midland Region took a dislike to the Odin nameplates and they were removed in December 1972 to be refitted in March 1974 when the engine returned to the Western Region. Fitted with electric train heating in February 1984 it was renumbered 47606. Transferred to Crewe in May 1988 it was again renumbered in February 1990 to 47842 when fitted with twin fuel tanks and lost its Odin nameplates. For some reason it reverted back to 47606 from February 1993 until again renumbered in December 1993 to 47778 when fitted with “cab power demand” equipment and RCH type nose end jumpers for operating with remote driving vehicles on Royal Mail trains. At this point it was named Irresistible which it carried until 1992 when it was renamed Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Withdrawn in February 2004 it was broken up by EMR at Kingsbury in March 2006.

Step 3:
Heating vent to cure them backside exposed
The pics in order shows the simple process of doing it and having one of the older vented heating provides the dry heat to cure them and complete the process. In the past I had an old toaster oven that was used for these processes but as it sometimes leaves an unsavory smell so I don't advise it if you're still using the toaster oven for warming food or risk getting the wrath of your better half or family/friends.
