Years ago when they were built, I thought this was the ugliest car ever made. Nowadays, the title is held by the Hummer, and I have a fondness for the Pacer that probably isn't really deserved.
Pace 20447, a 2020 New Flyer XD40, on route 330 at Rosemont Transit Centre on Friday, October 14th, 2022.
Model Year 1958 was the inaugural year model for the failed Ford Motor Company brand. The 'Pacer' and 'Ranger' were the economy models with a shorter wheelbase than the "Corsair' and 'Citation.' The Edsel brand last only until model year 1960.
The name 'Edsel' was the given name of the son of Henry Ford, the company founder. Edsel Ford was also the father of Henry Ford II.

After spending New Years Eve afternoon with my wife in Leeds it was a one of those rare occasions when we where in separate cars and this gave me half an hour to explore the far end of Leeds Station Long Stay Car park.
Its a spot I have wanted to revisit just to see what's shots are available, I will return, but will need to be quick, works are underway to build a new platform 0, which will involve a partial closure and from May 2019 complete closure of the car park to the public.
This shot is taken from a gap under the fence of an unidentified Northern Class 142 Pacer about to take the Up Midland (UM) line at Leeds West Junction and run towards Hunslet with the 16:29 2L73 Leeds - Sheffield via Barnsley.

I saw this AMC Pacer while getting an emissoins test on my Jeep (a $20 donation to the state of CT) on Tuesday. Pretty cool, not many of these around.
I am on a PACE to start catching up on my editing and posting though I have loads of catching up yet to go. Here is another of the freshly mown Pace farm. I shot several views down at the old Pace farmstead, barn and shed off "Quicksilver:" Road southeast of Logtown. There WAS a Logtown mining camp in the day in Colorado's San Juans. I furtively sneaked up on this shot of a scene after first sight I found on Google maps. The sheds are nearly empty and I wonder if there is more production other than baled hay and bee production. It is mostly a rural and quiet home except for the birthday party they were throwing when I got there. I should have gotten a piece of cake and a brewski before I took off. I learned that this was the original Pace family farm of Longmont Pace Street fame. I did a google search and found the following:
"Charles W. Pace was a well known rancher and farmer who came to Colorado by covered wagon in 1903. He was one of the founders of the National Western Stock Show in Denver, and helped in starting the Boulder County Fair in Longmont. Mr. Pace was born in Adair County, Iowa, on May 25, 1866. When he was eleven, his family moved to Hopkins, Missouri, where he grew to adulthood. It was here that he married Miss Celia Dixon, in 1887. The couple had four children: Fred L., Frank H., Goldie, and Sylvia. The young family farmed in Iowa and Kansas, before moving to Colorado in 1903. They stopped first at Boulder, but relocated to Longmont later that same year. In Longmont, the Paces became prosperous farmers and ranchers." Longmont Architectural Inventory Form
It looks like they just had a barn sale. Is this more of a lawn now or more of a pasture, mowed for fathering hay? The old sugar mill was visible over the distant trees in the last image. Did Pace grow sugar beets for the sugar beet campaigns? Two ugly days in a row kept me in hiding in the air conditioning and work on other projects. The bad sky days have extended into September so far this summer as have the 90s. It is way beyond the normal middle 70 as a normal daily temp.
I remember when I played with mercury as a kid and my finger had mercurochrome painted everywhere. Mostly banished now.

Ti piace vincere facile...!
E’ vero, qualcuno potrebbe dire così,
a chi non piacciono la pace ed i gattini...?
Poi, si sfonda sempre una porta aperta quando ci si dichiara per la pace...!
Ma cos’è la pace...?
E’ il mio stare in pace e gli altri non devono disturbarmi?
E’ godermi in pace la mia ricchezza?
La pace dicono, si gusta meglio dopo un buon periodo di guerra,
infatti, la si invoca spesso quando la speranza di vincere è ormai finita...
La Pace, è contro l’economia, contro le fabbriche, contro le speculazioni,
contro il consumismo, a veder bene, la Pace è contro talmente tante cose che,
per aver la Pace, ci vorrebbe una grande guerra...! O_o
Aggiungerei io...
Sigh...!
Canton-based "Pacer" 142002 takes the Quarry Line from Radyr with a service to Coryton on 12/11/2013.
Pacer units still form the 'bread and butter' of commuter services in the north and should have been withdrawn from service by the end of 2019. On Friday 25th October 2019, the 2T50 07:25 to Leeds is ready to depart from York as soon as the latecomer takes refuge in the 'welcoming comfort' of the 33 year-old Class 144 No.144002.
