From the archives: Battersea Powerstation back when the first of the new developments around it were set up.
A bit of a la-di-dah name for a project that should have been the revival of Derby but instead has been a vast disappointment (IMO) anyway here’s the corner of the building that houses a hotel and a casino.
I was passing through London a few weeks ago, and had a couple of hours spare, so popped down to the Thames to see how the Battersea development was getting on. This is the Riverlight Quay apartment complex, designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners.

In late 1987 a fleet of open OB wagons stored at Wallaroo were cleaned and returned to traffic for use during the upcoming harvest. as it turned out ultimately they only saw limited use on South Australian grain trains during 1988, the year the grain fleet transitioned to 100% covered hoppers.
Several trips were required to move all the hoppers from Wallaroo to Port Adelaide and broad gauge ALCo DL531 branchliners 838/833 were the motive power.
On 3 November 1987, they are seen crossing the River Light at Hamley Bridge with shunt loco #504 dead attached. It had been based at Wallaroo for local shunt moves there related to the cleaning of the OBs prior to reactivation.

First night in the Yukon, first Northern lights of the trip. Definitely not the last. There’s something magical about those dancing lights in the sky - we really do miss out in the south.

I liked what the otherwise MEH sky was doing from this side. There is also another river lighthouse across and downriver from this one. Not sure how many there were at the height of river travel, but I am going to look into it.
The River Lights on the St Jospeph River, South Bend, Indiana. The water was dead calm under the bridge - hence the great reflection.
An hour's drive, three ferry crossings, enough potholes to bury the CN Tower (three times), and $5 to enter a private campground where the lighthouse is situated, and here we were. Ironically, if we could have driven straight there, we would have arrived in about 20 minutes. The light didn't disappoint, though. It's one of the river lights historically situated on the St. John River here in Southern New Brunswick, Canada. All told, on the day, we did 5 ferry river crossings (one of them twice) on a fun Sunday. The New Brunswick ferries are free to ride, as I suppose it saves the province from building and maintaining bridges. This location, Oak Point, juts out into the St. John River, across from the Kingston Peninsula. It's been on my radar since I first saw it on Google Maps. Oh, we also crossed one, one lane covered bridge that I have shot before.

On 12 January 1995, Australian National broad gauge locomotives, 843/CK2/844, head across the River Light near Hamley Bridge, South Australia, with grain loading from Balaklava bound ultimately for Victoria. Post privatisation 843 remained on broad gauge with GWA until placed in storage in 2014, CK2 was rebuilt and is now on standard gauge owned by SCT (as T404), while 844 ended up working on the narrow gauge iron ore lines at Whyalla with GWA, .

Taken during a wander round Nine Elms last Summer, this is one of the immediately recognisable 'Pompidou-esque' vents of the Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners 'Riverlight Quay' development.
As someone that has spent about 35 years photographing Richard Rogers iconic buildings I was sad to hear that he died just before Christmas. His most famous works such as the Pompidou and Lloyds of London will ensure his name lives on.
I'm thinking later this Spring I might well organise a London Flickr Group Photowalk around the area. If that's something that might be of interest then join the group and keep an eye on the discussions. You can find us here : www.flickr.com/groups/londonflickrgroup/

From the Rogers Stirk Harbour & Partners website, "Riverlight transforms a triangular, five-acre industrial estate – close to Battersea Power Station on the south bank of the River Thames – into a residential-led mixed use development, creating a transition between the large footprints of the power station and the smaller residential developments to the east.
The scheme includes 813 homes, underground parking, crèche, restaurants, bars, a food store and other retail spaces. It incorporates a river walk and landscaping to take full advantage of its location and create attractive public spaces for the local community. The development is made up of six buildings, arranged in a rising-form composition, ranging in height from 12 to 20 storeys and giving the development a varied skyline. Around 60 per cent of the scheme is designated as public open space."

I work very fast, keeping the ideas flowing but making sure they come out the way I intended.
