I used 6 photos to create this image. My daughter Elizabeth is a very shy reserved child and it was kind of amazing that she would play along with this multiple shot. In each pose she pretended to be an exasperated child waiting seemingly forever in line for the waterfountain at John Lester Smith Memorial Park in Jackson, Kentucky.
A driverless, rubber-tire Yurikamome car leaves the station. This line offered the best views of any I rode in Tokyo, and attracts some tourist traffic for that reason. (But wouldn't have attracted me, had I not been shepherded by my expert Tokyo Free Guide, Hiro. I hadn't done enough homework before I left.)
As Hiro explained, the Tokyo transit colossus is comprised of three systems: the Tokyo/Toei subway lines, shown at www.tokyometro.jp/en/subwaymap/pdf/routemap_en.pdf , the JR East Network, shown at www.jreast.co.jp/e/info/map_a4ol.pdf, and the independent lines like the Yurikamome, which are kinda/sorta shown at www.jreast.co.jp/e/routemaps/pdf/RouteMap_majorrailsub.pdf but are not adequately represented in any one place, so far as I know. Each independent operator is responsible for setting prices and running its own system.
Real estate adjacent to the station is a big part of the deal, as explained at www.theatlanticcities.com/commute/2012/05/secret-tokyos-r... and www.jtlu.org/index.php/jtlu/article/view/280
The blue line is probably the most photogenic MBTA rapid transit line. The new trains (even though I don't like the design, they are new), renovated stations, striking blue color, and there's something extra cool about trains that say "Wonderland" on the destination sign (not this end, sorry...)
The blue line is underrepresented in my photostream though, probably because of the lack of a direct connection to the red line. (I can't say it's because I have no reason to ever to go to the area it serves, because since when has that ever stopped me?)
Komsomolskaya (Russian: Комсомо́льская) is a Moscow Metro station in the Krasnoselsky District, Central Administrative Okrug, Moscow. It is on the Koltsevaya Line, between Prospekt Mira and Kurskaya stations.
The station is noted for its being located under the busiest Moscow transport hub, Komsomolskaya Square, which serves Leningradsky, Yaroslavsky and Kazansky railway terminals. Because of that the station is one of the busiest in the whole system and is the most loaded one on the line. It opened on 30 January 1952 as a part of the second stage of the line.
Architecture and decoration
Beginning with the large vestibule located among the former of the two train stations, the building features an immense octagonal dome topped by a cupola, and a spire crowned by a large star and imposing full-height portico with stylised Corinthian columns. Inside amid the Baroque-style ornaments, rich torchères and chandelier lights, two escalators descend, one leading to the old 1935 Komsomolskaya-Radialnaya station, and the second to this one.
Once on the platform level, the full details of this deep column station built to special design on a monolithic plan become apparent; there is an imposing Baroque ceiling, with accompanying friezes, painted yellow. Supporting the enlarged barrel vault are 68 octagonal columns faced with white marble, and topped with baroque pilasters. The platform is lit up by chandeliers and additional concealed elements in the niches of both the central and platform halls.
The theme of the design, the Historical Russian fight for freedom and independence, is expressed in eight large ceiling mosaics by Pavel Korin. Korin said that the inspiration came from Joseph Stalin's speech at the Moscow Parade of 1941, where he inspired the soldiers amid the catastrophic losses in the early period of World War II to remember the historical heroics of their Russian forefathers. The idea to design the art as a mosaic came from the Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kiev, where Korin saw that such artforms could last for eternity. Chronologically the mosaics are as following:
1242: Alexander Nevsky after the Battle on the Ice.
1380: Dmitry Donskoy after the Battle of Kulikovo.
1612: Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky after the end of the Time of Troubles.
1799: Alexander Suvorov after the Crossing of the Alps.
1812: Mikhail Kutuzov after the Battle of Borodino.
1945: The original mosaic here was of Red Army troops on Red Square receiving the Guards banner from Soviet army command, yet because it contained images of some commanders whose careers and legacy would later be re-evaluated (including Joseph Stalin) most of the mosaic was replaced with that of Vladimir Lenin addressing a meeting in Red Square, thus moving the date of the artwork to a period between 1917 and 1922.
1945: Soviet Troops on the Reichstag building after the Battle of Berlin (according to some, the original banner had superimposed profiles of Lenin and Stalin: the latter was removed to leave just Lenin remaining).
1945: The original image was of a Victory parade with Soviet soldiers throwing captured Nazi banners in front of Lenin's mausoleum. However for the same reason as the sixth image, this image would hold the record for retouchings. First when Lavrenty Beria was arrested in 1953, his glasses were erased and then the whole figure was removed. Then in 1957, after the political crisis saw the end of the careers of Vyacheslav Molotov and Lazar Kaganovich, their images followed suit. Finally, after 1961 brought the end of Stalin's personality cult, in early 1963 the whole panel was taken down and Korin re-designed it by placing a maiden (symbolising Mother Russia) standing on the Nazi banners in front of the same mausoleum, holding a hammer and sickle in one hand and a palm branch in the other. This final one alone is made of more than 300 thousand mosaic tiles and takes up 31.5 square metres and weighs more than three tonnes.
However the artistic decoration does not stop there, for in between each of the mosaics there are further ones made of gilded smalt depicting various weaponry and armour: one set is focused on ancient Russian equipment, a second on the Napoleonic era, the third on WWII. At the end of the platform is a bust of Vladimir Lenin under an arch decorated with gilt floral designs and the Coat of arms of the Soviet Union.
In the centre of the red granite covered platform are two passageways, surrounded by marble balustrades with escalators that descend into a lobby with a main escalator tunnel upwards to the Sokolnicheskaya Line's Komsomolskaya station. On the wall opposite the escalator is a large fluorescent mosaic, also of Pavel Korin, depicting the Order of Victory surrounded by red and green banners and Georgian colours.
In 1951 both Pavel Korin and Alexey Schusev (posthumously) were awarded the Stalin Prize for their works on the station, and on 30 January 1952 the station was opened to the public as the first on the second stage of the Koltsevaya line. In 1958 the station was awarded the Grand Prix ("Grand Prize") title of Expo '58 in Brussels [Wikipedia.org]

This is the view crossing from Los Angeles to Ventura counties by small plane. There's nothing that really marks the county line except that I've hiked in this area and know that it runs through on the right side of this image. The highway that cuts through the image from left to right is the 118 freeway and the community visible is the town of Santa Susana in the Simi Valley.
Orchard Road, often known colloquially as Orchard, is a major 2.2 kilometre-long road in the Central Area of Singapore. A famous tourist attraction, It is an upscale shopping area of Singapore, with numerous internationally renowned department stores, restaurants and coffeehouses located in its vicinity.
Orchard Road got its name from the nutmeg, pepper and fruit orchards or the plantations that the road once led to. Such plantations were common in the area in the 19th century.
After more than a century as a two-way thoroughfare, Orchard Road became a one-way street in 1974. The ever-lively street starts at the junction with Orange Grove Road which is the location of the Orchard Hotel. It then stretches southeast across the Scotts Road–Paterson Hill junction, Orchard MRT station, Bideford Road, Somerset MRT station, Central Expressway, Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, and ends at the junction with Handy Road (just before Prinsep Street), where it becomes Bras Basah Road. It has an extensive underground infrastructure, including underground pedestrian walkways between the malls running underneath the street and other streets in the vicinity. The numbers begin at Handy Road and end at Orange Grove Road.
The Oak Leaf Trail Zip Line connects Estabrook and Brown Deer Park along an abandoned rail line. The section of the trail marked in red on the map above, between Mill Road and Silver Spring Drive, is where WE Energies has applied herbicide and clear-cut brush along their right-of-way. Trail users and residents of Crestwood Subdivision have health and safety concerns about the work, and the debris left behind.

A long line of hikers make their way up Mt. Halla on Jeju Island, South Korea...
Seongpanak Trail, the 9.5 km route up the eastern side of the mountain, is currently the only route that will take you up to Baengnokdam summit.
A little dull the first couple of km, the trail opens up near the top to reveal amazing 360 degree views of some of the nearly 400 "oreums" or hills that dot the landscape like ant hills across the southeastern part of the island.

South Wimbledon Underground Station (Northern Line), 1 May 2023. The station was opened by the City and South London Railway (C&SLR) in September 1926 on the Morden extension southwards from the C&SLR’s Camden Town/Euston – Clapham Common line, first proposed before WWI. The intention was to name the station Merton Grove but on opening it was called South Wimbledon. However, from 1928 South Wimbledon (Merton) appeared on tube maps (and may have been on platform roundels from opening) but not on the station façade which continued to show simply South Wimbledon. In any case, from about 1950 the Merton was dropped from all signage and maps.
The Chief Architect of the Underground Electric Railways of London (the umbrella company for the C&SLR) was the experienced Charles Heap who presented his designs of the proposed stations to the General Manager of the UERL, Frank Pick. But Pick did not like them, thinking them too conservative. Unusually, he commissioned the Architect Charles Holden of the practice Adams, Holden & Pearson to design the stations which must have been a real snub to Heaps. Nonetheless, there seems to have developed a good working relationship between the two notwithstanding Holden holding the predominant position with Pick.
South Wimbledon station is typical of Holden’s first work for the UERL being in Modernist style and clad in Portland Stone and a three part glazed screen in the centre of the double height façade divided by two columns with capitals which are a three-dimensional depiction of the Underground roundel, whilst the central part of the glazed screen contains a large roundel. The station was built with a shop each side, again a typical Holden feature. The station is Grade II listed.
Pictured is an original sign on the southbound platform assuring passengers they are on the Morden platform.
60103 Flying Scotsman brought the DBC operated 1Z87 ‘Scotsman Salute’ to York from Kings Cross. 90028 was to take the tour southbound and was named ‘Sir William McAlpine’ and painted DB red for the occasion.
After the naming ceremony in the National Railway Museum main hall, both 60103 and 90028 were lined up briefly for photos together before the Skoda would take the railtour back to Kings Cross.
60008 (now in long term storage at Toton) was named ‘Sir William McAlpine’. The name has been transferred to 90028, although new nameplates were used.
