This is comparatively a large spider with extremely long legs. The good thing about this guy is that it's relatively tame. Make my job easier. A handsome spider :)
Seen here showing its long fangs and hairy legs

Unique Wickham Railbus no. 999507 (Laboratory 20) in British Rail Research Department livery on the Lavender line.
The “Elliott Track Recording Coach” was commonly referred to as the 'Wickham Railbus' and was built in 1958 by D. Wickham of Ware, Hertfordshire.
It was a self-propelled four-wheel railbus No: DB999507 with one driven axle and had a Meadows 97HP horizontal underfloor engine. It was used as a track recording car by the Chief Civil Engineer's Department from around 1958, before the BR Research Division was formed and was fitted with an early computer system supplied by Elliott Brothers (London) Ltd (Elliott Automation).
The Wickham was sold to the East Lancashire Railway in 1997 and later moved to the Middleton Railway on 11th June 2003. It is currently based at the Lavender Line in Isfield, East Sussex and is now privately owned.

The Lavender Line formed part of the Lewes to Uckfield Railway when it was opened on 18 October 1858. Within 12 months of its opening, the branch had been integrated into the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway (LB&SCR) to safeguard the company’s interests east of its London to Brighton main line. Ten years from its opening, Isfield saw through workings from Brighton to Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge, via a new Uckfield–Groombridge link. The Bluebell Railway originally branched off the Lavender Line at Culver Junction, near Culver Farm between Lewes and Barcombe Mills. This junction closed in 1958 with the closure of the East Grinstead to Lewes line.
Following its closure in 1969 the track was removed in 1970 and the station at Isfield was neglected and became overgrown. After fourteen years of disuse, it was auctioned in June 1983 by British Rail and sold for £60,500 to Dave and Gwen Milham who restored the station and signal box and laid the first sections of track. Ownership of the station passed from the Milham family in 1991 and it is run by the Lavender Line Preservation Society.
The line was named 'The Lavender Line' with a historical connection in mind: A.E. Lavender and Sons were the local coal merchants who had operated from the station yard

UP #6578 single-handedly brings coke empties off the Short Line at CP 502 as evening overcomes the sprawling Inland Steel complex.
Although the vast majority of the Illinois Central's "Gruber Line" through the center portion of Illinois has been removed, a short stretch still remains from Oglesby to LaSalle, IL. Lucky that this short segment features the largest bridge on the line, spanning the Illinois River valley. The bridge is easily visible just to the west of the I-39 highway bridge. I've been across that bridge numerous times, but never saw anything until this past Wednesday morning when I spotted empty cement hoppers strung out to the south--that could only mean one thing--the cement plant was interchanging cars in LaSalle, IL. A quick U-turn had me back in LaSalle to record the GE 80 ton switcher pulling a string of hoppers off the bridge in the early morning light.

Little girl yesterday, 3 years old and as articulate as many adults - she was telling Santa about the book she has about him and how she's glad he's found his boots now. Then she took hold of his hand and said (for Christmas Eve) "I'll leave a flower out for you, a pink flower, would you like that?" Then she gave Santa a hug. Just gorgeous.
