On euro tour with Sean and Neil for 3 days of mayhem and a grand total of 8 hours sleep. Taking in some old and new sites and showing them some of what is out there as it was their first time. Also made time to meet up with the SPEXS crew.
This is my 2nd visit here and managed a whole different set of photos this time as it wasn't freezing and the 24 degree evening up til 1am was nice to wander around in.

Liège-Guillemins railway station is the main station of the city of Liège, the third largest city in Belgium. It is one of the most important hubs in the country and is one of the 3 Belgian stations on the high-speed rail network. The station is used by 36,000 people every day which makes it the tenth busiest station in Belgium.
History
In 1838, only three years after the first continental railway, a line linking Brussels and Ans, in the northern suburbs of Liège, was opened. The first railway station of Liège-Guillemins was inaugurated in May 1842, linking the valley to the upper Ans station. In 1843, the first international railway connection was born, linking Liège to Aachen and Cologne.
The station was modernized and improved in 1882 and in 1905 for the World Fair in Liège. This station was replaced in 1958 by a modern (for that time) one that was used until June 2009, a few months before the opening of the new Calatrava designed station.
New station
The new station by the architect Santiago Calatrava was officially opened on September 18, 2009, with a show by Franco Dragone. It has 9 tracks and 5 platforms (three of 450 m and two of 350 m). All the tracks around the station have been modernized to allow high speed arrival and departure.
The new station is made of steel, glass and white concrete. It includes a monumental arch, 160 metres long and 32 metres high. The building costs were €312 million.
Train services
Liège-Guillemins station is served by InterCity- and InterRegio trains, connecting Liège with all major Belgian cities, as well as several international destinations such as Aachen, Lille, and Maastricht. In addition to the national traffic, Liège-Guillemins station welcomes Thalys and ICE trains, connecting Liège to Brussels, Paris, Aachen, Cologne, and Frankfurt. Two new dedicated high-speed tracks were built: HSL 2 (Brussels-Liège) and HSL 3 (Liège-German border).

for 7DoS: I had a close up of the textures of the track but the train wasn't in the shot - so hopefully this will work. If not, I have a few spare shots :)

This heavily guarded platform stands in the center of Aricatraz and serves as the connecting point between the various substructures. Here Copters land to transfer prisoners in and out of(to be honest: rarely has someone ever been transferred out.) Sometimes prisoners can walk in the fenced area to exercise and catch some fresh salty air.
Below there’s a docking port for the surveillance Hoverboat as well as storage facilities.
This is part 4 of a 6 part steampunk police layout. Stay tuned for more details.

The sedimentary rocks that outcrop along the Newcastle coastline have been weathered and eroded into broad sub-horizontal platforms at about high tide level. Larger incident waves continue to prise joint blocks apart and abrade the platform surfaces with sand, gravel and cobbles. Repeated wetting and drying, and the growth of salt crystals works to further lower the platform surface, marking it with a variety of micro-relief forms. Bio-erosion slowly modifies the larger rock pools.
