Aufgrund einer Sperrung zwischen Zbehy und Leopoldov verkehren zurzeit die bekannten Züge von und zum Werk TIP Lužianky über Nitra nach Šurany/Nové Zámky. Am 01.11.25 konnte der Nex 47170 von Lužianky TIP nach Bochum Langendreer mit der gerade noch möglichen Verspätung vor Licht-aus bei der Ausfahrt am Bahnhof Komjatice mit 751 035 eingefangen werden.
Iconic, but not really necessary for the functioning of an urbanised society. There may be many reasons for having or for liking a Land Rover. It clearly was a symbol of Britishness, just like the (now defunct) red telephone booth was. However, when the truck was designed in 1947, it was very much based on the concept of the US American Jeep of WWII. In the meantime, BMW modernised its technology, and today, the company producing the Land Rover is a subsidiary of India's Tata Motors. The truck is still an icon, though it may no longer be clear of what.

We had enough time on our daparture day to go to the Lego store a second time. More than glad that we did, because I hadn't realised until then that this tiny car is another of those bloody "store exclusives"
I've already made some small modifications: Added number plates (which fell off for the picture) and changed the attachment of the spare tyre from an ugly 1x2 brick to a 1x1 technic brick, and another yellow, so the corner doesn't peep out.
This is not in the mud, as Cornelwine suggested, because we're having another drought - hasn't rained since... march?

Steam driven Landrover, 0 to 60 in 15 minutes, perfect for the modern commute to the city. I’m joking, of course, I’ve no idea of acceleration or top speed but I do know that the speed of traffic in London is no faster now than when horse and cart was the fastest way to travel making this a novel way to speed things up.
A little bit of background to this unique vehicle here :-
Surprised to see this old bruiser, which has the steering wheel on the "wrong side", as we used to say.
The Landrover is something I've been wanting to build for quite some time, but never came around to actually doing it. This one is 99% copied from Filius Rucilo.

On a side note: We'll be changing ISP on Wednesday 28th. Although my girls say, those are professionals and know what they're doing, I expect to be offline for at least two weeks...

A pleasingly original, tidy-but-used look to this one. Turned over 100,000 miles a few years ago and is covering a fairly modest amount each year.
Same town, different place. Plasing to see it on the Suffolk plate, although it wasn't local to where it appeared to have started out.
A series of classics, some unusual..some quite rare, all in tip-top condition.
A rare Land Rover, in superb condition.
Pastel painting. Another one for fun. Went to the Wild Animal Park a couple of weeks ago . This vehicle is part of the landscaping at one of the many ponds there. Wanted to try painting a vehicle. Still need to do a little tweaking on this.
