Oktoberfest Day 8

 

Explored October 9th 2025

The Locomotive Services Group's Class 50 No. 50050 'Fearless' has just passed Atherstone while working a driver training / route learner, 0Z83 1310 Oxford - Crewe H.S on 4th March. These out and back workings operated each day from 2nd-6th March, all featuring 50050, and believed to involve specific route learning over the new East West Line between Bletchley and Oxford.

While Della was at the beach with her Lab friend she learned how to fetch a bumper. She was a little tentative at first but learned very quickly!

I'm still having fun sifting through old images...

 

This is a Kea, the world's only mountain parrot. They are fantastic birds, native to New Zealand and highly intelligent.

 

And VERY VERY naughty!

 

They have been known to destroy tents, backpacks, are attracted (addicted?) to anything shiny and have even damaged motor vehicles. I was camped in the Southern Alps and this Kea would come within a metre of me exploring. The stove was still hot so there was only one peck and then he left it alone but during the previous night this guy and his mates managed to shred the bottom of my sleeping bag as well as destroying my sleeping mat...

 

But I love them :)

 

Cheers Jack

  

Young learner! ;-)))

It was interesting to watch these learner Scuba divers in the shallows of the clear blue waters off the Portsea Pier. The beach behind is the opposite side of the pier, closer to the eastern part of the curve that leads to the Heads. Portsea has a large number of wealthy inhabitants and a lovely Portsea Hotel that overlooks the pier and the yachts moored nearby.

We enjoyed watching this young fellow learning to control this gondola. Lots of laughs from his companions and us.

 

After our Dolomites hike last September, we spent four nights in Venice, staying in the Cannaregio area. Exploring the streets of Cannaregio on our first day in Venice. A guessimate of the location.

Carrying on the theme of ex-works class 931 departmental vehicles, this is Route Learning vehicle 931001 (formerly class 416 unit 6232) at Clapham Junction on 15th September 1993. Bearing a fresh coat of Network South East livery it was being used on the route to and from Kensington Olympia. For the record, that's 56059, possibly heading light to Stewart's Lane depot. The unit had four windows at one end and three at the other. This unit was withdrawn from service in 2002 and scrapped at Immingham in February 2004.

It was difficult to catch the baby with the mother.

She hides her young one very impressive all the time! :-)))

Blue liveried Class 37 No 37612 works away from Retford with the 09.20 Doncaster West Yard - Doncaster West Yard (via Worksop, Retford and Hatfield & Stainforth).

I'm assuming this was a route learner, but could be wrong.

It's me that's the slow learner -- not the fly.

Did everyone else know that you could rest the rim of the macro lens on the surface where the insect is? It helps to steady the shot, and seems to focus ok.

This juvenile Black Skimmer joined in to the attack. This is full frame and uncropped. I did cut the wing tips off, but it's so hard to get them when they are flying right out you.

Stagecoach Manchester's former Western Buses Alexander Y Type bodied Leopard training bus, TV23 sits under the arches at Bennett Street yard in the summer of 2003. It later gained national fleetnumber 25785.

 

Not a bad way to learn to fly is it?

 

The RAF Hawk T.1 is a training aircraft used to progress pilots onto fast-jet flying in the Tornado GR4 and Typhoon FGR4.

I was at an outdoor antique store when I ran across this 1961 Ford Falcon. I got a learner's permit when I was 15 and started with a used 1965 Ford Falcon (the family 2nd car). Had to drive with mom in the car for like 8 weeks and then I was cut loose on my own (scary thought). Of course I had to test everything out then. If you could find a puddle of water you could peel out. Speed topped out about 94 mph (automatic 3 speed) and it didn't care for high speed curves much.
