METRA's Milwaukee Road commemorative unit leads westbound commuters over the four tracks of the Union Pacific's (C&NW) West Line at Tower A-2. The Boise-built MP36 locomotive was overhauled and painted by Metra being released in January 2019. This impressive interlocking plant is still an air operated pneumatic plant with double slip switches and moveable point diamonds. A signal maintainer and his watchman wait to the side for a chance to make switch adjustments and bleed moisture from the pneumatic lines that operate the switches and moveable point diamond frogs. Taken with supervision from a Metra employee.
Good Morning! Happy and beautiful Sunday to all!

Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Limburg, Heerlen, Dutch Mine museum, Pneumatic drill, (cut from B&T)
A pneumatic drill with its reinforced weathered rubber hose at the Dutch Mining museum in Heerlen.
The museum uses the shaft building of the decommissioned Oranje-Nassau 1 mine (once commonly known as ON1). I started up in 1899 and decommissioned in 1974. It's history is here.
The profitable mining in Zuid Limburg enabled Holland to build up the welfare state. But the region paid the price. Deep mining proved to be dangerous and sometimes even deadly. Many miners suffered from silicosis and other miner's diseases. And there were geological consequences such as the rising and falling of the ground of certain parts of the region and local earthquakes. And the highly polluted (asbestos, drilling emulsion) water from the the decommissioned mines is rising, which will eventually reach the ground water table. Check out this (sorry only Dutch).
From the early sixties onwards, the Dutch coal industry withered away and eventually was terminated due to the import of cheap American coal and the start of the exploitation of the Dutch natural gas fields in Groningen.
Another factor in this process was the big conversion from coal to oil as an energy source. A spectacular example is the conversion in the shipping industry from WW1 onwards. There were large cost savings in this conversion -among others on labour costs. And it sped up the world economy.
The mine closure caused severe social and economic problems in the region.
About the production of gas in Holland: every city / large municipality had its gas factory (coal to gas conversion). Due to the Dutch natural gas availability, these factories with their typical large gasometers could be phased out – from 1963 to 1972, the Dutch Gasunie installed a nationwide underground gas transport network. This led to yet another conversion process. This time in the Dutch households. The burners in the water heaters, stoves and furnaces had to be changed ‘cause of the higher energy content (caloric value) of natural gas ánd the high pressure of the Gasunie network.

Sitting on the old Habel Track, so Named for Habel-Armbruster & Larsen Flour Co., the old loading dock on the left, METX 11 sits in the sun, prepared for A2 Plant Air rescue. The record temps of last week brought the plant to its' knees, with two 100+ degree days proving to be too hot for the air compressors to deal with. Locomotive-provided air for the pneumatic plant has happened before, although this was the first time in my memory that it was done. With cooler temps and other precautions now in place, its a safe bet to think the blue GP23ECO will be hostled out of this tight spot by Monday Morning and put back to Yard and Work Train Service, per the usual.

Pneumatic engine race.
Since 2008, in the beginning of May in the city Eger, Hungary, the Pneumobil race is organized by the Bosch-Rexroth Group in search for the next generation of creative, competent young engineers. There are four main categories of competition and several special awards. The four main competitions are: Construction award, Long distance race, Speed race and Drag race. From every university a maximum of three teams can join the competition, each with four members and a coordinator
professor.
A problem ever since pneumatic tyres came into use.
The first practical pneumatic tyre was made in 1888 on May Street, Belfast, by Scots-born John Boyd Dunlop, owner of one of Ireland's most prosperous veterinary practices. It was an effort to prevent the headaches of his 10-year-old son Johnnie while riding his tricycle on rough pavements.

Des morgens ein Joint
macht den Tag dir zum Freund.
Whassup, man?
A joint to start the day
in a friendly way.
The Hippie is another goodie from Dianne, and an improvised joint made from pneumatic tube and the front stud of a broken Erling brick.
Please ignore the Landrover in the background, this is not the best of pics, I was just happy to be out and about again.
Toy Project Day 2917
The Mirage is a modified Kuat Drive Yards Y-80 Hauler and it belongs to infamous smuggler Galatea Larmari and her crew. The crew consists of Cess Sivron (the pilot and chief mechanic) and Garm Kardall (weapons and electronics expert). They also have a P-14 repair droid on board.
Galatea and her crew have specialized in heavy cargo operations. The mirage can drop quickly from orbit down to the ground where rockets and repulsorlifts help breaking the speed. They grab the cargo (mostly containers) and take off again in a flash.
Based on a concept by Ian McQue.

Pneus velhos doados por borracharias da cidade de Carambeí no Paraná compõem o visual da entrada deste parque infantil - Centro de Educação Infantil São Judas que atende a comunidade do bairro do Boqueirão.
Os pneus foram pintados, restaurados e adaptados ao parque que faz parte do Projeto “Parque dos Pneus” elaborado pela professora Seli Regina Petroslki.
Adorei a idéia e a iniciativa e por isso divulgo aqui para que sirva de inspiração a outros locais do planeta.

NPZH 35660P is seen being shunted about at Moss Vale.
NPZH wagons began life as CHS coal hoppers, built by various builders for use in the NSW Hunter Valley coal traffic. Long since superceded by more modern coal hoppers, a number of wagons have seen use in other bulk traffic in NSW, such as limestone and quarry stone. NPZH wagons were recoded from their earlier NHGF code when fitted with pneumatic discharge doors to enable them to be used for Boral stone and gravel traffic between Dunmore and Sydney. Some NPZH wagons are also in use for Blue Circle limestone traffic between Medway and Berrima/Maldon, as the wagon pictured above is.

2LT Estabrook sans shades on the ladder of his favorite jet, the T-38, at Laughlin AFB, Del Rio, Texas. Class 82-04. This is a typical "hero" shot for Air Force pilots. It is indescribable to be given the keys to a supersonic jet with afterburners and go fly solo. Be advised, we are sarcastic when we label these "hero photos." We know who the real heroes are. This was a 35mm color film shot cropped to a square in Photoshop CS2.
The machine is a pneumatic forging hammer photographed at the National Slate Museum, Llanberis , North Wales. Image originally made in 2018.
Silverstone racing circuit around 1989 and I found myself helping my friends when they were asked to bring this Routemaster to (I think) the National Association of Driving Instructors day-out.
There were lots of vehicles to have a go at driving regardless of whether you had the appropriate licence to drive them.
RM116 had been sold off by London Transport during the previous year and was in primer awaiting its red top coat.
It gave a very good account of itself during the event and on both legs of the journey from Surrey to Northants, as after purchase the new owner had spent some time and effort making subtle improvements to its 'Active Ride' Hydraulic Suspension that'd been fitted some years earlier by LT's Experimental Department at Chiswick Works.
It hadn't been used much in service with the system fitted when allocated to Stamford Brook garage as it'd disgraced itself a couple of times by leaking large pools of Tellus oil on the road surfaces of West London!
The bus is seen here with another vehicle I had a drive of - E163JRP - a V8 powered Mercedes Benz 'Powerliner' NG 1644 4x2 tractor unit Demonstrator complete with EPS gearbox- although this one was off the road for good by the end of 1993 for some reason, whereas the RM is still in a roadworthy condition in 2025.
Frigatebirds are primarily found over tropical and subtropical waters.
The featured bird has white underparts and a pale head, which are characteristic of juvenile or female frigatebirds across different species.
They primarily feed on fish and squid, which they catch mid-flight from the ocean's surface.
Frigatebirds have very light, pneumatic bones, which aids their ability to stay airborne for extended periods.
Thanks to the awesome parts sent byNew Elementary (
www.newelementary.com/ ) for their parts festival I finally managed to build this compact pneumatic tunnelier for which I had sketched a design back in 2012.
