A rather work stained GBRf Class 92 Co-Co 92023 heads light through Tamworth running as 0Z92 09.34 Crewe HS to Willesden TMD. I trust it will get a spruce up before starting work on the Caledonian Sleepers.

WEEK 18 – Barnes & Noble Ole Miss: Reunionited and It Feels So Good (III)
Okay, at least I know where I am for this picture! Still on the third level, but facing south – towards the front wall of the Union, with its right-hand wall on my left – and looking down towards all the other levels. I think it’s really, really cool how from this perspective you can see all the floors at once.
Looks like the second floor – which, remember, is the ground floor as far as the main entrance of the Union facing the Grove is concerned – is where most of the seating is, which of course makes sense. Below that, the first floor/basement floor (whichever you want to call it) has an entrance which opens out onto the sidewalk on the left; you can just barely see that entryway in the extreme bottom left of the pic here. Obviously the Union is built into a hill, hence the differences in elevations and entrance locations.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
"I grew up breaking stones. As a young person, I realized that carving is an interesting process, one that also helps make good friends"

For me this photo is a lesson in patience I learned from Sam Abell, and that is to stay with it.
I saw the hole carved in the rock and I thought it was interesting with the background of the building, but I waited.
The artist placed a level in the opening and I thought that was a nice add, but I kept waiting.
A gust of wind came along and hit the level and boom I had a shot.

Sculpture Nova Scotia has invited a group of experienced stone artists to create large-scale works and demonstrate their skill in the open air on the Halifax Waterfront. Presented in partnership with Waterfront Development, this creation process forms the core of a month-long, outdoor sculpture-arts festival from Sept. 19 to October 17 in Salter.

Here is a quick shot I took along the pedestrian walkway of the High Level Bridge which crosses the River Tyne. This famous bridge was designed by Robert Stephenson and was built between 1847 and 1849.
The bridge was closed to road traffic in February 2005 and essential maintenance was carried out which will hopefully ensure the bridge's long term future. It remained closed for three years and was reopened on the 2nd June 2008.
Now I do an urban level crossing. And this one is rather nice in the city of Lincoln complete with foot bridge.
In the 1960s, the following view of GDR consumer goods production resulted from ten thousand metres above sea level: mopeds came from Suhl, cars from Zwickau, sausages from Eberswalde, marmalade from Mühlhausen and Spreewald gherkins from there.
Cameras came from Dresden and the lenses from Jena and Görlitz. The cameras were mostly called "Praktica". Zeiss Jena quarrelled with the Westableger about who was allowed to use which names. And Meyer-Optik in Görlitz? They were simply lucky. While others were renamed after great models, e.g. Wilhelm-Piek-Stadt, Karl-Marx-Stadt or Ernst-Thälmann-Mütze, the new authorities simply gave the company away to the people. So the Meyers were rid of all their worries and the company was called "Volkseigener Betrieb Feinoptisches Werk Görlitz" for a while.
And the view of the rest of the landscape? A great clean-up after the war, compensation for damages and forced collectivization. The population went to the barricades but nothing changed. People were sent on their way and whoever was able left. A wall was the salvation. In the difficult, uncomfortable times the remaining labourers did a lot. They also had to. Because the assembly line was introduced in Dresden near Pentacon. Result: one Praktica every 45 seconds. Without lens. Jena and Görlitz were responsible for this. To make the plan work, both had to deliver a normal lens every 45 seconds.
Sounds simple, but it wasn't.
Insufficient production capacities, outdated production facilities, great uncertainty among the population, mass exodus of young families from the republic. No good framework conditions for smooth production. And not at all for innovation and development.
But a good time for distraction, e.g. by stirring up an old riot from pre-war days.
The first excitement came at the Leipzig Spring Fair in 1957. Meyer-Optik presented the Primotar E 3.5 50mm and thus increased Carl Zeiss Jena's sales. An unpleasant attack on the Tessar. The points for technology, comfort and price (109Mark instead of 123Mark) went to Görlitz.
However, the peak of the escalation was not reached until spring 1959. At the Leipzig Fair Meyer showed a normal lens with preselection aperture, the Primotar 2.8 50mm. Perfect for the inexpensive and popular EXA cameras. Until then, only the expensive Tessar from Jena was available for these cameras.
But it got even worse. With the Domiron 2.0 50mm for the EXAKTA Varex Meyer showed that not only a good price-performance ratio was mastered. The Domiron was a top product for the world market. The target group were professional photographers and affluent amateurs all over the world.
The Thuringians dropped their jaws. But they caught each other and reacted confidently. The supply of special glasses from Jena to the working people of Upper Lusatia was stopped.
One might think, "ok, you won, it's enough". But it wasn't enough.
In the following patent specifications it is pointed out - unusual for such documents - that the new Meyer lenses are "composed of simple, inexpensive glasses".
