High Line Park, Phase One from Gansevoort to West 20th Street by Field Operations and Diller, Scofidio + Renfro
I pinned this below the knee dress perhaps a bit too far above? Am I showing a little too much thigh? Maybe I should be a bit more demure and lower it a little?

The City of Glasgow Union Railway - City Union Line (also known as the Tron Line), is a railway line in Glasgow, Scotland. The line is still open, with the section north of Bellgrove still open to passenger trains. This short route joins the two halves of inner Glasgow's railway system. At its northern end, it connects to the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway at Sighthill Junction (now 'Sighthill East Junction'), and its southern end is connected to the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway at Shields Junction.
At Bellgrove the line joins the Coatbridge Branch of the North British Railway, now part of the North Clyde suburban route, from the north east. At High Street East Junction (now 'High Street Junction') the line heads off in a south westerly direction, through the Calton district, and over the River Clyde to the Gorbals and Tradeston, where it joins the Glasgow and Paisley Joint Railway at Shields Junction. The southern section of the line was closed to passengers with the closure of St Enoch railway station on 27 June 1966.
Following the closure of the St Enoch railway station as part of the Beeching Axe the line became redundant and was disused for passenger services. The line is still maintained as a route for freight trains, charter trains as well as departmental movements of diesel multiple units to Corkerhill Depot in Glasgow's South Side for maintenance.
The Springburn-Bellgrove section is still in use, forming part of the North Clyde Line. The original four platform terminus at Dunlop Street was opened in December 1870. Located on a short spur to the east of the line just north of the Clyde. This station remained in use until 17 October 1876, when it was closed and St Enoch opened. The railway received Royal Assent in 1864, with the first section of line between Shields Road and Dunlop Street on 12 December 1870, a section of line which included the first railway bridge built across the Clyde. By 1 June 1871 the line was extended to Bellgrove. The line through to Sighthill Junction was opened to goods traffic on 18 August 1875, although it was not until 1 January 1881 that passenger services reached Alexandra Parade; 1 October 1883 to Barnhill; and 1 January 1887 to Springburn, beyond Sighthill Junction.
By 1901 the section between Gorbals Junction and St Enoch railway station was quadrupled, including the widening of the Clyde Bridge.

This 1951 railtour, at meltham, terminated in the goods yard. The road on the left, went under the bridge, (which came out behind the photographer), for the single line to continue into the station. The bridge is still there, but hidden away by tons of soil and landscaped. the signalbox was just to the right of the photographer.

High Line Park , NYC
The view from High Line Park , NYC , USA ...( looking north from 14 St. )
"...why don't we do it in the road."
For some there is a concern that this billboard visually hijacks a multi-million dollar super-creative NYC Parks Dept investment , the High Line Park , ...and shows foriegn visitors what our culture is really all about : ie. "OUT FOR THE BUCK !" .
Several photographers have made awesome images of this imposing iconic eyesore.

The High Line is an elevated park converted from an old freight railroad that ran above the streets of New York City. The elevated railroad lifted trains 30 feet in the air and removed the dangerous freight trains from the streets of Manhattan.
The non-profit, Friends of the High Line, worked with mayor Michael Bloomberg and city council to reverse the decision to demolish the High Line and instead convert it into a public park, and also led the design process of the transformation.
More about the High Line.

This is me, waking up precisely a year after i took my first picture by the dawn light. At first , as i woke up and saw that light running through the room and towards the door, I thought it was unnecessary and almost stupid to repeat the same shot but then i realized it would have _never_ been the same picture, so things got a bit more interesting and i gave it a try.
This is my way to figure the passing of this year which i am saluting in a new shape, a new haircut, a new awareness.
I had more lows than highs ,which i hate to admit, and i am still working out on some things in my life. I had some people back in my life, while I turned others out (and hopefully will never hear of them again) and I am still waiting for others to join back.
I even changed the environment i am in. My room in my hometown got repainted in aquamarine (still not very tidy , tough) , and I moved to another city to chase my ambitions, which fortunately were just resting and not leaving me as I feared.
I am not brand new, I cannot be, but I like to think I am getting more strength like an old tree which had grown in spite of bad weather.
She looks out her window
And the stars don't feel that far away
She watches the wind blow
Blowing all her problems away
But then she'll ask, as she cleans up the glass
"Is this the line?
Is this the line?
Is this the line between heaven and hell?
Is this the line where I get up and walk out?
Is this the line where you get drunk you yell?"
She fixes her make-up
Treading lightly on the floor
Hoping he won't wake up
As she makes her way towards the door
But then she'll say, as she waves him away
"Is this the line?
Is this the line?
Is this the line between heaven and hell?
Is this the line where I get up and walk out?
Is this the line where you get drunk you yell?"
She says "I've lived my life like a diamond
Bright and hard like a diamond"
She says "I've lived my life like a diamond
Bright and hard like a diamond"

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
