A maintenance of way worker makes a break in the railhead at Obico jct so he can thermite weld it back in time for train 246.
A deliberate mistranslation of something I saw on Facebook, with a TMBG chaser.
Such ich dich hinter dem Licht
Wo bist du
So allein will ich nicht sein
Wo bist du
I'll look for you behind the light
Where are you
I don't want to be so alone
Where are you
RUDYARD KIPLING - Se - If

Se podes conservar o teu bom senso e a calma
No mundo a delirar para quem o louco és tu...
Se podes crer em ti com toda a força de alma
Quando ninguém te crê...Se vais faminto e nu,
Trilhando sem revolta um rumo solitário...
Se à turva intolerância, à negra incompreensão,
Tu podes responder subindo o teu calvário
Com lágrimas de amor e bênçãos de perdão...
Se podes dizer bem de quem te calunia...
Se dás ternura em troca aos que te dão rancor
(Mas sem a afectação de um santo que oficia
Nem pretensões de sábio a dar lições de amor)...
Se podes esperar sem fatigar a esperança...
Sonhar, mas conservar-te acima do teu sonho...
Fazer do pensamento um arco de aliança,
Entre o clarão do inferno e a luz do céu risonho...
Se podes encarar com indiferença igual
O triunfo e a derrota, eternos impostores...
Se podes ver o bem oculto em todo o mal
E resignar sorrindo o amor dos teus amores...
Se podes resistir à raiva e à vergonha
De ver envenenar as frases que disseste
E que um velhaco emprega eivadas de peçonha
Com falsas intenções que tu jamais lhes deste...
Se podes ver por terra as obras que fizeste,
Vaiadas por malsins, desorientando o povo,
E sem dizeres palavra, e sem um termo agreste,
Voltares ao princípio a construir de novo...
Se puderes obrigar o coração e os músculos
A renovar um esforço há muito vacilante,
Quando no teu corpo, já afogado em crepúsculos,
Só exista a vontade a comandar avante...
Se vivendo entre o povo és virtuoso e nobre...
Se vivendo entre os reis, conservas a humildade...
Se inimigo ou amigo, o poderoso e o pobre
São iguais para ti à luz da eternidade...
Se quem conta contigo encontra mais que a conta...
Se podes empregar os sessenta segundos
Do minuto que passa em obra de tal monta
Que o minuto se espraie em séculos fecundos...
Então, ah ser sublime, o mundo inteiro é teu!
Já dominaste os reis, os tempos, os espaços!...
Mas, ainda para além, um novo sol rompeu,
Abrindo o infinito ao rumo dos teus passos.
Pairando numa esfera acima deste plano,
Sem receares jamais que os erros te retomem,
Quando já nada houver em ti que seja humano,
Alegra-te, meu filho, então serás um homem!...

On 30 April 1966, 70035 (minus its 'Rudyard Kipling' nameplates) heads away from Carlisle Kingmoor 12A depot to Citadel Station and take the return leg of The Jubilee Railway Society's
'South Yorkshireman No.5 Rail Tour' over Aisgill to Bradford. This hurriedly and only partly cleaned 12A Britannia was drafted in to take the train when the Jubilee 45593 'Kolhapur' that brought the tour to Carlisle was declared failed at 12A.

Class 92 no. 92034 "Kipling" on display at Crewe Rail Day on 27 August 1995. 92034 was built by Brush at Loughborough and was new only a few weeks before the date of my photo, in May 1995. It is currently employed working freight trains in Bulgaria.
I went into a public 'ouse to get a pint o' beer,
The publican 'e up an' sez, "We serve no red-coats here."
The girls be'ind the bar they laughed an' giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an' to myself sez I:
Oh it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' " Tommy, go away"
But it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins," when the band begins to play
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
Oh it's "Thank you, Mister Atkins," when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be,
They gave a drunk civilian room, but 'adn't none for me;
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-'alls,
But when it comes to fightin', Lord! they'll shove me in the stalls!
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, wait outside";
But it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide
The troopship's on the tide, my boys, the troopship's on the tide,
Oh it's "Special train for Atkins" when the trooper's on the tide.
Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap.
An' hustlin' drunken soldiers when they're goin' large a bit
Is five times better business than paradin' in full kit.
Then it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' Tommy, 'ow's yer soul?
But it's "Thin red line of 'eroes" when the drums begin to roll
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
Oh it's "Thin red line of 'eroes," when the drums begin to roll.
We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints,
Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints;
While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' Tommy, fall be'ind,
But it's "Please to walk in front, sir," when there's trouble in the wind
There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind,
Oh it's "Please to walk in front, sir," when there's trouble in the wind.
You talk o' better food for us, an' schools, an' fires, an' all:
We'll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
Don't mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
The Widow's Uniform is not the soldier-man's disgrace.
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' Chuck him out, the brute!
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot;
An' it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' anything you please;
An' Tommy ain't a bloomin' fool - you bet that Tommy sees!
"If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs..."
This little scene caught my eye as I was walking past The Gap on the way to my car this afternoon.
