I have no idea who was operating Scania K124 Irizar Century 00-KK-3048 in a soggy Dublin on 26th July 2013. It had most recently been with Billy O'Brien, Ballycogley, but I think it had moved on.

SH1 WHIROKINO TRESTLE AND MANAWATU RIVER BRIDGE NOW OPEN TO PUBLIC
27 February 2020, NZ Transport Agency
The new State Highway 1 Whirokino Trestle and Manawatū River Bridge between Levin and Foxton is now open to traffic.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Regional Transport Systems Manager Ross l’Anson says traffic was switched from the old alignment onto the new bridges this morning.
“It’s really exciting to see this vital link for the lower North Island now open. Improving this region’s resilience has been a key priority, and this project will offer a stronger, safer route for freight and travellers.
“We would like to thank the community for their patience while this project has been under construction.
“This has been a huge project for the Horowhenua and Manawatū. We know how eager the community has been to see it open, and it’ll be great to see people now getting to use it.”
Motorists should be aware that traffic management and reduced speed limits will remain in place while final construction activities are underway, including ‘tie-in’ works.
“We’re asking drivers to keep to the posted speed limits and take care around the site while our team puts the final touches to the road,” says Mr l’Anson.
While tie-ins are completed, vehicles will be directed across the new bridges, which will include driving on uneven and unsealed surfaces at times.
Southbound traffic wanting to use Whirokino or Matakarapa Roads will need to follow the posted detour which will loop them back over the old Manawatū River Bridge.
Construction of the tie-ins at each end is expected to take approximately eight weeks to complete.

As a former operator, I have always loved these types of photos. This shot, taken by Clyde Stickley in 1970 shows ATSF agent/operator Jean Ferguson working at her desk in Waynoka, Oklahoma. This shot has all the basic operator items including: Scissor phone to talk to the dispatcher on the block line, CTC machine, current employee timetable hanging from the machine (ATSF Plains Division ETT #3), ATSF calendar on the wall, train orders/clearances/lineups and other paperwork on desk. She seems to be fairly young and very ladylike and sports a big smile.
I am completely unfamiliar with this location and the Santa Fe isn't on the top of my favorites however, I always loved this photograph.

Pictured here is Go-Ahead London WVN45 on route 217, about to begin it’s journey towards Waltham Cross on the first day of operation with Go-Ahead London two weeks ago, which by sheer coincidence happened to be on the same day of my 24th birthday! I decided not to ride the route though due to my bias against TfL vehicles not introduced from their original operator, as the ex-First B9TLs were the only fleet appearing on the 217’s first day of GAL.
This route has been moving around a lot recently as it operated with Metroline until 2017, which then saw 217 passing to Sullivan Buses that run till August, when the entire company abolished itself from all TfL services, leading to the route getting temporarily awarded to Arriva on an emergency contract before shifting over once again to Go-Ahead, albeit only on a one year contract.
This makes 217 one of the TfL routes with the largest amount of bus companies in a short space of time with four in total, though I do believe route E10 currently holds this record with five operators running the route within less than ten years and I’m definitely sure the chances of it happening to another route at present are slim to none, due to former operators in London such as Tower Transit and Quality Line being sold.

This 1993 Leyland DAF 45 was seen parked amongst multiple other horseboxes at Rockrose Equestrian Sports Centre, near East Linton, Scotland. While not always especially interesting, horsebox lorries tend to be considerably old and rare, one example being this 31 year old Leyland. The vehicle is still taxed and in use, and interestingly its V5C logbook was last issued only last July. If we're to presume that date is when its current owner purchased the lorry, it should have a good few years left at work, over three decades after being registered.
