Frequently the Cumbrian Mountain Expresses meet disappointing weather on the climb to Ais Gill, but back in the ‘80s there was always the spectacle of the Hellifield to Carnforth leg to look forward to.
On 14th April 1984 after City of Wells had produced little of note over the S & C, the S & D 2-8-0 certainly provided the highlight of the day as it lifted 13 coaches up Giggleswick bank.
Penumbral eclipse of 18/19 October 2013

Using the original raw files and more recent software, I recovered a new image to replace the now obsolete one from 2013.
The one on October 18/19, 2013 was the last lunar eclipse of the year and was of the relatively deep penumbral type with magnitude 0.7649. The beginning occurred at 21:50:38 UTC, the maximum at 23:50:17 UTC and the end at 01:49:49 UTC.
The following November 3rd there was a solar eclipse, barely visible as a very small partial from southern Italy.

With a small X-Acto cut to the bottom of the Maxim 08/15 receiver, the RPD drum will fit quite nicely. However, there is now no room for it to pitch up & down on a tripod attached to the mounting tab!
The Maxim MG 08/15 overmold will be available in limited quantities at World War Brick in Anaheim. I'll bring my X-Acto and make this mod for anyone that wants one - but you must supply the RPD drum (or get an RPD from the Brickmania store at the show).
This is the same fish as my last post, but taken straight-on, highlighting just how tall and thin its body is...
A distinctive fish, it is called a Lookdown (selene vomer), probably so named because of its very small mouth set low and large eyes set high. It can grow to a maximum size of 18 inches, though most commonly they are 8 to 12 inches in length.
I had the joy of visiting the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago on April 8th, 2016, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

At a height of 159 m (184.9 m above sea level), the Haniel heap in Bottrop is one of the highest heaps in the Ruhr area. It was piled up in the form of two spirals from overburden from the Prosper-Haniel coal mine.
In 2002, the Basque artist Augustin Ibarrola installed 100 painted railway sleepers, the "totems", on the heap in order to bring together the "apparent contrasts of industrial space and nature".
With the clean one on the front, a 6 hour late 7MB9 works its way through the curves approaching Harden as SCT001, SCT014, SCT012 hauling a maximum length train.

Photographed at 9:12PM PST from Penticton, British Columbia.
The colours of this total lunar eclipse seemed a little subdued compared to a few other lunar eclipses I have seen in recent years. Did not seem at all ominous or portending doom to a simple, optimistic guy like me.

Big plans this week, fires, burners, flames and other dramatic things but reality kicked in as I am having a busy week, so, a quick visit to the green house with my phone and this shot of the maximum and minimum thermometer!!! I haven't reset it for a while so this kind of represents the strange weather we have been having over the last few months.

STS MIR on the River Mersey where she led the flotilla of vessels as part of the 2004 Mersey River Festival.

STS MIR (Russian: Мир, - 'Peace') is a three-masted, full-rigged training ship, based in St. Petersburg, Russia. It was built in 1987 at the Lenin Shipyard in Gdańsk, Poland.
STS MIR is the second largest of six sister ships designed by Polish naval architect Zygmunt Choreń and weighs 2,385 tonnes. It is 109.2 m long, with a beam of 13.9 m and a draught of 6.3 m. The main mast is 52 m high and along with the other masts supports a total sail area of 2,771 m2.
Its sister ships are Dar Młodzieży, Druzhba, Pallada, Khersones, and Nadezhda. Mir is 8 m shorter than the second longest current sailing ship, the STS Sedov (117.5 m). It is owned and operated by the Admiral Makarov State Maritime Academy (AMSMA) in Saint Petersburg.
This ship was originally constructed as a cadet training ship, designed for carrying between 70 and 144 cadets. The total transport capacity is 199 people.
STS MIR has taken part in races, including the annual The Tall Ships' Races organised by Sail Training International. In the Grand Regatta Columbus 1992, celebrating the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus in 1492, Mir came out as the winner.
STS Mir is the fastest sailing ship in the world. Its officially registered maximum speed under canvas is 21 knots (38.9 km/h). In 2010 the ship established average speed record – 11.3 knots.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walchensee
Walchensee or Lake Walchen is one of the deepest and largest alpine lakes in Germany, with a maximum depth of 192.3 metres (631 ft) and an area of 16.4 square kilometres (6.3 sq mi). The lake is 75 kilometres (47 mi) south of Munich in the middle of the Bavarian Alps. The entire lake, including the island of Sassau, is within the municipality of Kochel. To the east and the south, the lake borders the municipality of Jachenau.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bassenthwaite_Lake
Bassenthwaite Lake is one of the largest water bodies in the English Lake District. It is long and narrow, approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) long and 3⁄4-mile (1.2 km) wide, but is also extremely shallow, with a maximum depth of about 70 ft (21 m).
It is the only body of water in the Lake District to use the word "lake" in its name, all the others being "waters" (for example, Derwentwater), "meres" (for example, Windermere) or "tarns" (for example, Dock Tarn). It is fed by, and drains into, the River Derwent. The lake lies at the foot of Skiddaw, near the town of Keswick. Some maps dating from the 18th century do in fact mark this lake with the name Bassenwater,[citation needed] and the use of the name Broadwater for this lake is also attested.[citation needed]
The A66 dual carriageway runs roughly north/south along the western side of the lake. The lay-bys are popular spots for photographers and bird watchers looking for osprey. The section running south towards Keswick was built along the course of the former Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith railway line.
Origin
Like the other Lake District lakes, Bassenthwaite Lake lies in a glacially eroded valley, left after the last glaciation. Bassenthwaite Lake is linked to Derwent Water by the River Derwent, which crosses the 3-mile (4.8 km) alluvial plain between the two lakes. There has been speculation that Derwent Water and Bassenthwaite Lake were once one larger lake with the alluvial flats now separating them formed from partial infill of the original basin.[citation needed]
Etymology
'Bassenthwaite' is "'Bastun's clearing', pers.[onal] n.[ame] plus 'þveit' 'clearing', also 'common', 'lake'. The 1st el[ement] is usually taken to be the Anglo-French nickname or surname 'Bastun', originally meaning 'stick', while the 2nd is ON 'þveit' 'clearing'. The lake, in early times known as 'Bastun's water', takes its name from the village." [2] (ON=Old Norse).
Biodiversity
The lake's catchment is the largest of any lake in the Lake District. This, along with a large percentage of cultivable land within this drainage area, makes Bassenthwaite Lake a fertile habitat.
The lake contains salmon, trout, pike, perch, minnow, dace, ruffe and eel, though the predominant species is roach, which is believed to have been introduced in the form of discarded live-baits by visiting pike anglers. Also present was the vendace, until it was declared extinct within the lake in 2001.
Birdlife
Cormorants have been known to fish the lake and herons can also be seen; at the turn of the 19th century there was a report of 60 nests in a heronry in nearby Wythop Woods.
Lake District Osprey Project
In 2001, ospreys returned to nest in the Lake District after more than a hundred years. They nested by the lake, and have done so regularly since. The osprey family can be watched from viewpoints at Dodd Wood and by CTV from Whinlatter Forest Visitor Centre.
Threats
Water quality is adversely affected by high sediment deposition, and there are other problems such as phosphate pollution. These issues are being addressed via the Bassenthwaite Lake Restoration Programme.[4][5] To reduce the sediment entering the lake more trees have been planted alongside watercourses, and clear felling of existing tree cover has been discouraged with the cooperation of the Forestry Commission.
Phosphates encourage algae formation.[4] The Environment Agency attributed unacceptable levels of phosphate in the catchment to Keswick wastewater treatment works, Greta Grove pumping station and the associated overflow.[6] Water company United Utilities was fined £27,000 in 2011 for allowing raw sewage to pollute nearby Pow Beck watercourse.[7] The company's £20 million sewer improvement scheme, begun in 2011, aims to improve water quality in the River Greta[8] and the lake itself.[9] The project will facilitate removal of greater quantities of phosphates.[10] Works to upgrade the wastewater treatment works and pumping station were begun in May 2010.[6]
Neolithic man
It has been reported that the wide gravel spreads between Derwent Water and Bassenthwaite Lake provided the best centre within Lakeland for Neolithic farming communities. Stone axes have been found in the area and particularly at Mossgarth, Portinscale.
I felt the surface brightness darker a bit compared to that during former total eclipse in November 2022. Maximum exposure was 4 seconds then with the same optics and camera, and 6 seconds this time.
