The house to the house is a water castle coming from the 13-th century in the Angerbach in Ratingen.
The water castle was established around 1276 as a family seat of the nobility gender „vom Haus“ and was a part of a row of defensive arrangements along the Anger, the so-called "Angerlinie".

Met de aluminiumtrein van Spellen naar Koblenz-Lützel. Zeer onlangs is het voorste spoor, dat als passeer en opstelspoor wordt gebruikt, volledig vervangen en voorzien van een nieuw ballastbed. Het was altijd een wildernis tussen en rond dit spoor (maar ook leuke bloemetjes). Dit ziet er nu weer heel anders uit.
In de vroege avondzon richting Düsseldorf. Deze Ludmilla werd tot 15 maart 2021 in het Oosten van Duitsland ingezet en nu vanuit Oberhausen Osterfeld.
Die Orgel füllt die Empore fast vollständig aus. Das Instrument wurde 1749 von Peter Weidtmann aus Ratingen gebaut und wurde im Laufe der Zeit mehrfach restauriert. Die seitlichen Pedalpfeifen wurden 1963 erweitert. Bei der Renovierung 2004 wurden alle Pfeifen abgebaut und gereinigt. Die Füße wurden erneuert. Das Rokokogehäuse ist im Originalzustand erhalten. Die Orgel mit drei Manualen und 34 Registern hat 2735 Pfeifen.
TKSE 541 mit einem leeren Kalkzug nach Rohdenhaus in Ratingen-Lintorf. Mit mehreren täglichen Zugpaaren prägen die Loks das Gesicht der Angertalbahn und der Strecke in das Ruhrgebiet.
Richting Flandersbach om een lading kalk op te halen. Persoonlijk vind ik dit de mooiste kalkwagens.
Barn Owl (Tyto Alba) Full frame.
1150.17.12.2024.
I was having a chat with a friend of mine about a visit we made near Pilling to image Barn owls. I was curious as to when we visited Pilling so I looked up my gallery. To my horror I discovered we photographed the barn owls in 2013 yet it seemed like only a few years ago! I realised when looking at my barn owl shots that one image had seemingly disappeared from my gallery and it was my best one. The image was made with my old Sigma 300f2.8 plus a 1.4X converter and using a Canon 50D body. When I previously showed the image It would have been shown with 1024 pixels width. This time I am showing the image at 2048 pixels. The ISO rating was 800 which for the Canon 50D was pushing it somewhat. How things have changed! Sadly I have few barn owl images so I will be on the look out during this month.
Ze zijn er gelukkig weer. Tot de zomer van 2020 werd deze trein met coils naar Andernach altijd gereden met een dubbel BR 151. Nadien met een dubbel BR 185. Maar sinds een tijdje worden ze gelukkig toch weer ingezet. Persoonlijk zie ik dit klassieke duo zesassers liever dan een duo 185.
Nach 18-monatiger Bauzeit und mit einiger Verzögerung wurde der neue Straßenbahn- und Busbahnhof "Ratingen Mitte" eröffnet. Die Rheinbahn setzte hierzu einige Fahrzeuge ihrer historischen Flotte ein.
In de vroege avondzon richting Düsseldorf. Deze fraaie klassieke locs zag ik de laatste jaren op de Brennerbahn, maar eigenlijk nog nooit in het Ruhrgebied.
Gracias de antemano a todos/as por vuestras visitas y valoraciones.
Thanks in advance to all for your visits and ratings.

Blick auf die Gebäude des ehemaligen Bahnbetriebswerkes Ratingen-West. Die Bauten werden schon seit Jahrzehnten nicht mehr für Bahnzwecke genutzt.
Wegen einer Baustelle von DB Netz an der Strecke Duisburg-Wedau - Ratingen-Lintorf war diese wichtige Güterstrecke im September 2023 für ein paar Tage nicht benutzbar. Die Kalkzüge von und nach Flandersbach mussten einen weiten Umweg über Düsseldorf, Neuss und Krefeld nehmen, um in das Ruhrgebiet zu gelangen. Das betraf auch den gelegentlich verkehrenden Kalk-Ganzzug nach Bremen. 232 498 bespannt diesen Zug, der hier zwischen Abzweig Neuss-Weissenberg und Meerbusch-Osterath zu sehen ist (Aufnahme vom Hochstativ).
The Liard River Suspension Bridge (also referred to as the Lower Liard River Bridge) is a historic structure located at approximately kilometer 798 (historic mile 496) of the Alaska Highway in northern British Columbia, Canada, spanning the Liard River just south of Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park. Constructed during World War II as part of the rapid building of the Alaska Highway to connect the contiguous United States to Alaska for military purposes, the bridge was completed in 1943 after just nine months of work. It remains the only suspension bridge along the entire 2,232-kilometer (1,387-mile) route of the Alaska Highway and is one of six "special crossings" designated due to their engineering complexity.
The bridge was designed by the American Bridge Company, a prominent U.S. steel fabrication and bridge-building firm founded in 1900 through a merger orchestrated by J.P. Morgan, which had a long history of constructing record-breaking spans. Actual construction was carried out by engineers from the U.S. Public Roads Administration (PRA), which collaborated with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the overall Alaska Highway project. The suspension design—spanning 307 meters (1,007 feet) in length and standing about 29 meters (95 feet) above the river—was chosen due to challenging ice conditions on the Liard River, which made it impractical to erect temporary scaffolding in the water for a more standard truss-style bridge.
A notable aspect of its construction was the use of salvaged steel from the infamous Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington State (nicknamed "Galloping Gertie"), which had dramatically collapsed in 1940 due to aerodynamic instability just months after opening. This recycling of materials was a practical response to wartime steel shortages and helped expedite the project while reducing costs. The bridge site itself lies within a culturally significant landscape long used by Indigenous peoples, fur traders, and early explorers.
Since its completion, the bridge has been maintained as a key infrastructure element on the Canadian portion of the Alaska Highway, one of 25 bridges overseen in that section. It has undergone periodic upgrades, including erosion mitigation work around the Liard River and cable tension force testing in recent years (conducted by firms like Civionic Engineering for WSP Canada) to verify load ratings and structural integrity. As of 2025, the bridge remains in active use and is a popular landmark for travelers, offering scenic views of the surrounding boreal forest and river gorge.
