Navigation Road signal box located by the Down Main line alongside Navigation Road level crossing in Altrincham. Saturday 28th January 1989
Navigation Crossing signal box opened in 1882 replacing an earlier signal box located on the opposite side of Navigation Road level crossing, and was a Saxby & Farmer type 9 design fitted with a 20 lever Saxby & Farmer frame built by signalling the contractors Saxby & Farmer for the Manchester South Junction and Altrincham Railway. It was renamed Navigation Road in the early 1930s, possibly in conjunction with the opening of Navigation Road railway station 20th July 1931. A replacement 20 lever Railway Executive Committee frame was installed in June 1947 by the London Midland & Scottish Railway Company. The signal box closed on 6th July 1991, control of Navigation Road level crossing passing to Deansgate Junction signal box by means of closed circuit television although the equipment was not commissioned until 22nd July 1991
The signal box carries a British Rail corporate identity printed design nameplate

Berlin (/bərˈlɪn/; German pronunciation: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn] ( listen)) is the capital of Germany and one of the 16 states of Germany. With a population of 3.5 million people,[4] Berlin is Germany's largest city. It is the second most populous city proper and the seventh most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Located in northeastern Germany on the River Spree, it is the center of the Berlin-Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has about 4.5 million residents from over 180 nations.[6][7][8][9] Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers and lakes.[10]
First documented in the 13th century, Berlin became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (1417), the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).[11] Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world.[12] After World War II, the city was divided; East Berlin became the capital of East Germany while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall (1961–1989).[13] Following German reunification in 1990, the city was once more designated as the capital of all Germany, hosting 158 foreign embassies.[14]
Berlin is a world city of culture, politics, media, and science.[15][16][17][18] Its economy is based on high-tech firms and the service sector, encompassing a diverse range of creative industries, research facilities, media corporations, and convention venues.[19][20] Berlin serves as a continental hub for air and rail traffic and has a highly complex public transportation network. The metropolis is a popular tourist destination.[21] Significant industries also include IT, pharmaceuticals, biomedical engineering, clean tech, biotechnology, construction, and electronics.
Modern Berlin is home to renowned universities, orchestras, museums, entertainment venues, and is host to many sporting events.[22] Its urban setting has made it a sought-after location for international film productions.[23] The city is well known for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife, contemporary arts, and a high quality of living.[24] Over the last decade Berlin has seen the upcoming of a cosmopolitan entrepreneurial scene.[25]
20th to 21st centuries[edit]
Street, Berlin (1913) by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
After 1910 Berlin had become a fertile ground for the German Expressionist movement. In fields such as architecture, painting and cinema new forms of artistic styles were invented. At the end of World War I in 1918, a republic was proclaimed by Philipp Scheidemann at the Reichstag building. In 1920, the Greater Berlin Act incorporated dozens of suburban cities, villages, and estates around Berlin into an expanded city. The act increased the area of Berlin from 66 to 883 km2 (25 to 341 sq mi). The population almost doubled and Berlin had a population of around four million. During the Weimar era, Berlin underwent political unrest due to economic uncertainties, but also became a renowned center of the Roaring Twenties. The metropolis experienced its heyday as a major world capital and was known for its leadership roles in science, the humanities, city planning, film, higher education, government, and industries. Albert Einstein rose to public prominence during his years in Berlin, being awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921.
Berlin in ruins after World War II (Potsdamer Platz, 1945).
In 1933, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party came to power. NSDAP rule effectively destroyed Berlin's Jewish community, which had numbered 160,000, representing one-third of all Jews in the country. Berlin's Jewish population fell to about 80,000 as a result of emigration between 1933 and 1939. After Kristallnacht in 1938, thousands of the city's persecuted groups were imprisoned in the nearby Sachsenhausen concentration camp or, starting in early 1943, were shipped to death camps, such as Auschwitz.[39] During World War II, large parts of Berlin were destroyed in the 1943–45 air raids and during the Battle of Berlin. Around 125,000 civilians were killed.[40] After the end of the war in Europe in 1945, Berlin received large numbers of refugees from the Eastern provinces. The victorious powers divided the city into four sectors, analogous to the occupation zones into which Germany was divided. The sectors of the Western Allies (the United States, the United Kingdom and France) formed West Berlin, while the Soviet sector formed East Berlin.[41]
The Berlin Wall in 1986, painted on the western side. People crossing the so-called "death strip" on the eastern side were at risk of being shot.
All four Allies shared administrative responsibilities for Berlin. However, in 1948, when the Western Allies extended the currency reform in the Western zones of Germany to the three western sectors of Berlin, the Soviet Union imposed a blockade on the access routes to and from West Berlin, which lay entirely inside Soviet-controlled territory. The Berlin airlift, conducted by the three western Allies, overcame this blockade by supplying food and other supplies to the city from June 1948 to May 1949.[42] In 1949, the Federal Republic of Germany was founded in West Germany and eventually included all of the American, British, and French zones, excluding those three countries' zones in Berlin, while the Marxist-Leninist German Democratic Republic was proclaimed in East Germany. West Berlin officially remained an occupied city, but it politically was aligned with the Federal Republic of Germany despite West Berlin's geographic isolation. Airline service to West Berlin was granted only to American, British, and French airlines.
The fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989. On 3 October 1990, the German reunification process was formally finished.
The founding of the two German states increased Cold War tensions. West Berlin was surrounded by East German territory, and East Germany proclaimed the Eastern part as its capital, a move that was not recognized by the western powers. East Berlin included most of the historic center of the city. The West German government established itself in Bonn.[43] In 1961, East Germany began the building of the Berlin Wall between East and West Berlin, and events escalated to a tank standoff at Checkpoint Charlie. West Berlin was now de facto a part of West Germany with a unique legal status, while East Berlin was de facto a part of East Germany. John F. Kennedy gave his "Ich bin ein Berliner" – speech in 1963 underlining the US support for the Western part of the city. Berlin was completely divided. Although it was possible for Westerners to pass from one to the other side through strictly controlled checkpoints, for most Easterners travel to West Berlin or West Germany prohibited. In 1971, a Four-Power agreement guaranteed access to and from West Berlin by car or train through East Germany.[44]
In 1989, with the end of the Cold War and pressure from the East German population, the Berlin Wall fell on 9 November and was subsequently mostly demolished. Today, the East Side Gallery preserves a large portion of the Wall. On 3 October 1990, the two parts of Germany were reunified as the Federal Republic of Germany, and Berlin again became the official German capital. In 1991, the German Parliament, the Bundestag, voted to move the seat of the (West) German capital from Bonn to Berlin, which was completed in 1999. Berlin's 2001 administrative reform merged several districts. The number of boroughs was reduced from 23 to twelve. In 2006 the FIFA World Cup Final was held in Berlin.

Outside of the Jewish Museum view
The Jewish Museum Berlin (Jüdisches Museum Berlin) is one of the largest Jewish Museums in Europe. In three buildings, two of which are new additions specifically built for the museum by architect Daniel Libeskind, two millennia of German-Jewish history are on display in the permanent exhibition as well as in various changing exhibitions. German-Jewish history is documented in the collections, the library and the archive, in the computer terminals at the museum's Rafael Roth Learning Center, and is reflected in the museum's program of events. The museum was opened in 2001 and is one of Berlin’s most frequented museums (almost 720,000 visitors in 2012).[1]
Opposite the building ensemble, the Academy of the Jewish Museum Berlin was built – also after a design by Libeskind – in 2011/2012 in the former flower market hall. The archives, library, museum education department, and a lecture hall can all be found in the academy.[2]
Princeton economist W. Michael Blumenthal, who was born in Oranienburg near Berlin and was later President Jimmy Carter's Secretary of the Treasury, has been the director of the museum since December 1997.[3]

Bateau amiral de la flotte CGN
Construit en 1910
Dernière rénovation importante effectuée entre octobre 2007 et mai 2009
"La Suisse" prend son service le 31 mai 1910. Avec ses dimensions, la distribution nouvelle des espaces du bord et sa magnificence générale, "La Suisse" reste à ce jour le vapeur le plus prestigieux des lacs suisses.
Durant l'hiver 1959-1960, les chaudières sont transformées pour pouvoir fonctionner au mazout. Fin 1968, "La Suisse" est immobilisée pour 3 ans en raison de l'état défectueux de ses chaudières. Leur remplacement est inévitable. A la place, on instale une seule chaudière de grande taille. Le gouvernail est équipé d'une commande électro-hydraulique. D'autres modifications techniques et esthétiques sont apportées.
En 2003, "La Suisse" retrouve une partie de la splendeur de sa décoration d'origine grâce à l'Association Patrimoine du Léman (APL) qui lui offre une figure de proue, des ornements de poupe ainsi qu'un canot d'intervention.
Entre octobre 2007 et mai 2009, "La Suisse" a été entièrement rénovée et a retrouvé sa silhouette d'origine.

Foto's uit het archief van de voormalige nationale luchtvaartmaatschappij
Sabena, de Société Anonyme Belge d'Exploration de la Navigation Aérienne, wordt opgericht op 23 mei 1923, midden in de roaring twenties.
De luchtvaart staat nog in haar kinderschoenen.
Vluchten naar buurlanden verlopen met meerdere tussenstops.
Slechts 2 jaar later vliegt Sabena, naast tal van andere locaties, reeds naar Congo, waar het vliegtuig hét middel blijkt om de lange afstanden in de toenmalige kolonie te overbruggen.
Het helpt de Belgische staat ook om het immense land beter te besturen.
Maar uiteraard ging dat gepaard met het nodige gevaar, de infrastructuur en techniek van toen waren nog niet die van nu, en dat hield risico's in voor langeafstandsvluchten.
Sommige vluchten gingen noodgedwongen ook boven het dichte oerwoud, wat uiteraard voor nodige adrenaline zorgde.
Op zeven november 2011 zal het een decennium geleden zijn dat een enorme kring Sabeniens zich op de luchthaven van Zaventem rond de laatste Sabenavlucht sloot. Ik bekijk het gebeuren in de vorm van amateurfilmpjes op YouTube en kan zelf de ogen nauwelijks droog houden. De werknemers lachen en hullen tegelijk, scanderen Sa-be-na en vallen elkaar in de armen. De intensiteit van hun afscheid overstijgt de boosheid om de sluiting van de luchtvaartmaatschappij en de angst over de toekomst van hun persoonlijke carrières. Met oprecht verdriet begraven deze mensen een groot stuk Belgische geschiedenis, een gedeelde manier van leven die hen naar eigen zeggen vleugels gaf, een bedrijf waarmee ze zich in die mate identificeerden dat ze zich geen gewone werknemers voelden maar Sabeniens.
Le sept novembre 2011, il y aura dix ans que les Sabeniens ont formé, à l'aéroport de Zaventem, un énorme cercle autour du dernier vol de la Sabena. Je découvre l'événement sur YouTube, sous la forme de films d'amateurs, et j'ai moi-même du mal à retenir mes larmes. Les travailleurs rient et pleurent à la fols, scandent Sa-be-na et se tombent mutuellement dans les bras. L'intensité de leur adieu l'emporte sur la colère suscitée en eux par la fermeture de leur compagnie aérienne et sur leur anxiété quant à l'avenir de leurs carrières personnelles. C'est avec un profond chagrin qu'ils enterrent une grande partie de l'histoire de Belgique, un mode de vie commun qui leur a, de leur propre aveu, donné des ailes, une entreprise à laquelle ils se sont tellement identifiés qu'ils ne se considéraient pas comme de simples travailleurs, mais comme des Sabeniens.

We've been selected by AgustaWestland to supply the LCR-110 Inertial Reference System for the new AW609 TiltRotor aircraft.
This is the Wey Navigation at night.
In reality it was pitch black and quite windy, but the long exposure time has waved a magic wand and somehow come back with a surprisingly colourful sky.
I wasn't too sure about the graininess, but it reminds me of those Magritte paintings (the Empire of Light series I think, but I may well be wrong! ) where the land is night but the sky is day - which in the end is the reason it's ended up in the stream!
