Conwy, North Wales. Now that many high streets are losing their bank branches, and even cash machines in some cases, is this the alternative perhaps? I couldn’t see a member of staff inside, so no one to help if customers have queries or problems. Even bank branches that remain open seem be to offering limited hours now…Whatever happened to customer service?

Update of set 894/452.
So many of the really early Classic Space sets were so much more grounded in near-future science than their later counterparts, and the Mobile Tracking Station certainly fits this vibe. At the time I remember thinking the set was a bit boring and ugly, being basically a grey box on wheels; these days its more realistic near-future vibe and clear, recogniseable purpose are part of the charm.
Seeing as I seem to be on an "updated rebuilds of old Classic Space sets" kick at the moment, I couldn't resist.
Another fun outing with our friends at the Eastern Shore Camera Club, a sunset cruise through the Port of Mobile and surrounding areas.
We've been enjoying uncharacteristically comfortable weather for this time of year!
Daniel Morrison's Savage Armor, Camryn Summer's "White Tiger", Charlie King's "Bobcat".
Made for Mobile Frame Zero.
Pairs of these units were first seen supporting frames of colony Branton as they revolted against local SU forces to devastating effect. The initial reports that were sent back assumed they were new Ijad units. This was the SUs working theory until one was downed and inspected. The pilot, still alive, attacked the recovery squad tearing the arm off a Chub before being killed.

This Bristol RELH6G WVL515, with handsome Eastern Coachworks Bodywork was new to Lincolnshire in July 1964 as Fleet number 2822.
Originally all over cream with a green Tilling waistband it succumbed to National white but continued to perform top link duties until at least 1978 to London and on other work including Excursions.
It was converted into a mobile travel office to showcase Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire products and it is in the guise it is seen here in Scunthorpe 4th May 1984.
It received the fleet number of Lincolsnhire 10.
The nearside had a very large roller shutter door that was opened and a step placed for people to enter. This made the nearside (kerbside) not as smart as this offside view.
It was still performing this travel office role in 1985.
Fate of the Bristol is unknown but by 1995 it was in a very sorry state at a scrapyard in North Sherburn and was presumably scrapped.
Later (by 1989, presumably when the Bristol was withdrawn) the registration was given to a Yorkshire Traction National Holidays (then with Airedale Tours branding) Plaxton Paramount coach as No.67.
It then went onto a rather utilitarian 'Roadcar' Leyland Tiger East Lancs single decker (new to National Welsh as a Duple Caribbean coach and rebodied with its East Lancs bus body) and was still on that vehicle in 2006.
Self propelled armored artillery platform with an AA missile system and a front mounted .50 cal. anti personnel machine gun.
I like my phone images to be different. something of a surprise when I open the phone and I object to images that are selling something. There is an album here with 700 or so examples. www.flickr.com/photos/jacobs_ian/albums/72157711897629218
Maple leaves fallen among the lilies. I loved the way these colours worked together in this light.
Taken in front of our house.
Two racing frames, Tempest and Red Cap, turned mercenary war machines. Once bitter rivals on the track these frames now cover each other on the battlefield.
Pilots Charles and Camryn didn't like each other at first. And while they still may not be friends they both respect the other one's skills and depend on one another to pull through situations.
