Whilst we where restoring my own Westfield AEC, and having already restored the Westfield trailer, the next logical step was to have a textile machine in an original Westfield cradle as a load for it, and as It would have worked.
These textile machine's vary in length and width depending on the manufacturer, the machine that we acquired was a 60 foot 'Bentley Cotton', all of it was available, but with the trailer being only 32 foot we decided to just have half of it, and they would have been split if being transported any distance anyway.
It's being loaded with a 10 ton capacity American built 'Towmotor' forklift, picking the machine up like this would have ruined it, with such small clearances involved in these machines, that's why a cradle was used.
NS 056 heads down the Lurgan seen here at Lemoyne, PA. This is reportedly an engineering brigade headed for training at a base in southern Virginia. Around 700 pcs of equipment moved in 3 different trains thus far.

LNER K1 62060 arrives at South Pelaw and is spliting it's load for Consett. A K1 or Q6 would only manage 7 or 8 hoppers and a guards van on the climb to Consett! 1966/7
Lindow Moss peat railway with loading underway on a typical train. The unstable nature of the surface and trackbed is evident in the varying angles of wagons, excavator and locomotive. May 1985.
KiwiRail's DSG 3277 propels a train of wagons from the port onto the linkspan and into the belly of what, at the time, was KiwiRail only rail-enabled ship Aratere working the 'Interislander' service between Wellington on the North Island and Picton on the South Island.
On 18th August Aratere has been retired, allowing upgrades and rebuilding of the linkspans ready to take a new fleet of ships from 2029. In the meantime, there will be no rail connection between New Zealand's two island. The impact of this on rail freight traffic, particularly on the South Island is not yet known.
Aratere was launched in 1998 following construction in Vigo, Spain and has spent it's career crossing the Cook Straight in New Zealand.
The DSG class of shunting locomotive dates from 1981 and is a product of Toshiba Heavy Industries in Japan. This example is remote control fitted.
On the road between Pondicherry and Thanjavur, we came across people loading sugar cane onto a truck.
LOCH LOMOND @ CAMERON HOUSE HOTEL
The flights depart from the pontoon in front of the hotel reception - a world class location.
The world-renowned bonnie banks of Loch Lomond conjure images of a majestic world of heather-dappled glens and roaring open fires. What better place to watch the theatre of the Highlands unfold than from Cameron House. Find your true love here.

It’s not just about the timeless splendour. Cameron House is legendary Scottish hospitality at it’s very finest and very warmest. There’ll always be someone on hand to impart age-old tales of clansmen or point you in the right direction in choosing the best red to go with your steak.

On a cold, dreary, drizzly day, the Arthur M. Anderson unloads stone for Graymont in Superior, Wisconsin. Before embarking on my Iowa/Minnesota trip, I'd seen the Anderson back home on Lake Huron fairly recently, so it was cool to see it again.

Loading the Glenora Ferry is a bit of a science to ensure maximum number of vehicles on board. This Loadmaster is making every inch is utilized.
My punch broke! I was planning different sized circles and the mid-size broke! Bummer! Anyway, many of the circles are punched from papers used in this year's LOAD crop. The journaling reads: "My goal in 2015 is to CHRONICLE my life stories - yesterday's and today's. Thus far, on 27th February, I've kept up the pace and I'm on target!* Thanks to LOAD 215, I'm having a great adventure, telling lots of stories! Cheers~"
Too bad LOAD can't go all year!
* I am chronicling at least one story a day tho' not all are layouts.
Perhaps not a landmark in the strictest sense of the word, but a much anticipated part of our Reunion Experience. 😊
The loader at Nullawill is over the main line with no siding provided for it. On this occasion X31,T341,T357,T320,B74 pass under the bin where it previously loaded with B74 leading. The train then ran to Berriwillock to run around and is seen on the return journey on 15-10-11

Thanks for looking!
In days gone well by, Dalkeith's makeshift 'bus station' was situated at Crystalmount (High St) and this scene from 1965 shows passengers loading a splendid AEC Regent bound for Birkenside. The Regent, (in busman's parlance 'the BB') is working route 89 from Edinburgh to Birkenside via Gilmerton, Easthouses low road and Newtongrange and has arrived at the stop already well-laden which is hardly surprising given that the route was one of SMT's busiest. The route was rostered jointly from Dalkeith and New St depots - BB85A being a New Street working. Seen opposite is SMT's Dalkeith office and garage, note the green gates to left of office which accessed the depot yard. The garage, opened in 1931 closed in 1966 when the new Bus Station/depot was built Eskbank Road.
Passengers on the top deck will be sitting 4-abreast as this bus had a side-gangway, but will 'enjoy' the luxury of two sunlights and of course the smart ornate coach-work by H Burlingham of Blackpool. The downside of side-gangways was watching your head as you got up to get off! New in 1950 the bus had just been re-painted into 'Lothian Green' livery but its rusting radiator chrome perhaps gives away its age. Oh the nostalgia !
I recently speculated as to whether the small rusty ship in the foreground was used to periodically remove scrap. That turned out to be a dredger and is absolutely dwarfed by the ship which does.
Talis was built in 1992 in Germany. She is operated by WE-Ships who are based in Istanbul. She is 81.8m in length and draws around 4.6m empty, so would be sitting on the mud here. She can carry up to 106,000 tons.
saw a cool ad in a seventeen mag and saved it. wasn't sure what to do with these pics, but i think this was a great idea...i may need to scraplift myself. easy and uses lots of paper...my fave.
Painting by Peter Lerro. In 1937 Philadelphia, a Pennsylvania Railroad A5s 0-4-0 steam locomotive shifts on Delaware Avenue just south of the Delaware River Bridge.
What I want to say right now - the idea came to me as soon as I read it and then I nearly ran out of time to do it.
I had this idea in my head, and the grid wouldn't work with 31 layouts, so I decided to go with it and use the BW theme for the title/journaling/embellishments. This has been such a great experience! I'll scrap more efficiently in a style I like and I won't buy a bunch of stuff I don't use. It will also be a long time until I cut out 30 tiny photos again...maybe October?
TFL and have a great Memorial Day!
