As part of the safety and maintenance regime at Puffing Billy, the undergear of all the carriages are inspected on a regular basis. This inspection ensures that all the brakes, pipes, suspension and other unseen bits and bobs are in safe working order, and allows the carriage and wagon workshop at Emerald plenty of notice if a component needs attention.
Because the railway runs 364 days of the year and rollingstock is stretched thin enough, these inspections are carried out in the early hours of the day. At 7AM the train leaves Belgrave, travels to Menzies Creek, and is shunted into the Museum headshunt where an inspection pit has been built beneath the rails.
On a wet and miserable Spring morning, DH59 (aka DH31) effortlessly pulls the empty carriages uphill through Selby, approximately half way through to its destination.
DH59 is currently running without number boards. Numbered DH59 when it was in service with Queensland Railways, it was re-numbered to DH31 and painted in an unprototypical Victorian Railways-inspired livery. Its number boards were removed some months ago, and its original number can be seen beneath the paint on the cab sides.
After a wet and salty week on the roads Friday evening is maintenance time. All celaned and chain lubed ready for next week.
A wide variety of work equipment sits in 38th Street Yard, which is one of two yards not used for revenue equipment. Notable pieces seen here are:
- The final run R42s, with the large (A) bullet.
- R14 de-icer car RD340, built in 1949 and the last of its kind in service in the system, identifiable by its clerestory roof.
R14 (ACF, 1949)
R32 (Budd, 1964-1965)
R42 (St. Louis Car Co., 1969-1970)
R52 (GE 45-ton, 1977)

Cycling though this winter in England has meant a lot of bike cleaning especialy the transmission. This has been a mild and wet winter and I do not remember the last time I cycled on dry roads.

This is the famous temple of Lord Shiva located at Sibsagar, Assam. Legend says that the top is made of Gold.
Enough clouds finally drifted in this morning to make it a nice sunrise. As you can see, all the leaves have fallen off the black walnut at the overlook. And as the Sun drifts further and further South for the winter, this will be in the few compositions available at this time of year.
I’ve tried to be nice about pointing out the impediments to photography at Monte Sano State Park. But as I’ve found throughout my life, nice doesn’t seem to spur people to action. It’s a shame. I guess I’ll have to try other methods — as much as I hate them. But assuming the word “overlook” has any meaning, maintenance is required to maintain the view.
Oh well. Y’all just enjoy the view. I’ll work on making sure we still have one to enjoy.

Infra on the move!
After maintenance at TW Antwerpen Noord, these Infrabel 62's return to Schaarbeek on 07/09/2020.
To the left, 1308 and 1307 wait with Lyon Express 44840 on continuation towards France.
Cambridge is full of these little quirks and all of them have a "legend" attached to them. The "legend" about this is that it suddenly appeared overnight in the pavement outside Kings College many years ago, and no one knows who or why.
All complete nonsense of course (they all are), we know the artist, we know when and we know the reason, but why spoil the allure of the mystery :-)
Bit late today and a bit busy tonight, so will catch up tomorrow.

The techies are doing some maintenance to the color bubbles machine. No one knows what is the machine for or what it means for them but it is always working and perfectly adjusted.
Maintenance on our R32s cars will keep them on the rails until new R179 cars are delivered. We're doing a limited-scope maintenance makeover on four cars per week.
With their once-gleaming stainless-steel bodies dulled by age and their windows scarred by the negative attention of vandals, MTA New York City Transit's R32 subway cars are living out their final years of service until the arrival of their replacements. In order to make those last trips go more smoothly, however, the cars are "having a little work done."
The "Brightliners," as the Budd-built cars were dubbed upon their introduction into service back in 1964, were the first large fleet of stainless steel cars purchased by New York City Transit and the first corrosion resistant cars placed in service since the ten experimental cars purchased in 1949 by the New York City Board of Transportation.

I haven't uploaded anything for ages (anything Lego-related even longer!). I haven't been building much for the last few months but recently I've done a bit. This is just a little hangar diorama, mainly to display my new dropship.

Trouble at the telephone box. The maintenance team have been called out to attend to a fault reported in the box. Unfortunately, as they arrived, a bowler-hatted gent is trying unsuccessfully to make a call, and can’t be persuaded to leave, constantly attempting and failing to make his urgent call. The motorcycle rider has stopped to enquire what’s going on but the manager is as perplexed as the rest of the team. The Morris Commercial J-type 10 cwt van and the Morris Minor are quite new and looking great deal smarter that this rather dilapidated location. Note: ’Post Office Telephones’ models by Corgi.
