Restored to BR blue livery with half yellow ends class 438 (originally class 491) 4-TC set 410 is seen crossing Lydd Town Level Crossing while leading the Hertfordshire Railtours 'Trans-Marsh Link' railtour down the freight only Dungeness branch. The train was run using sets 410 and 417 which carried their original BR(S) unit numbers. These numbers were carried until the stock was reclassified and entered on the TOPS system to become class 438 stock. Set no.410 then became 8010 and 417 became 8017. Network SouthEast retained the two sets as charter train stock as they were very versatile units being compatible in push-pull mode with class 33/1 and 73/1 locomotives or simply loco hauled as they were fitted with ETH sockets and jumpers for train heat. On this occasion the train engine out of sight was 33 116.
This barn was restored by my cousin and her husband in Marshall County, Iowa. The restoration took about six weeks which included repairing the stone foundation, adding new siding and adding electricity. All the new windows were custom cut due to their unusual size. The siding came from the boards of a corn crib that stood a short distance from the barn. All the boards were individually made and fitted with the tongue and groove method. An interior stairway was added to the loft (for storage) and a metal roof was used to lower the overall maintenance.
Panama Nebraska. An old school house that had sat empty for a few years across the street was calling Transformation Marketing's name. They are currently in the last few weeks of renovation and cannot wait to put their new creative conference room to use!
The Anderton boat lift near Anderton, Cheshire, in North West England provides a 50ft vertical link between two navigable waterways: the River Weaver and the Trent and Mersey Canal.
Built in 1875 the boat lift was in service for over 100 years until it was closed due to corrosion in 1983. Restoration started in 2001 and the boat lift was re-opened in 2002.
I didn't know the story. Apparently the original sign was painted over. There was a local outcry and accusations of vandalism. What you see now is newly painted.
Located in Queen Street, Portsmouth, Hampshire. The tram shelter had been along the seafront at Southsea Terrace until falling in to a state of disrepair. Renovated and relocated next to a modern day bus shelter in Queen Street close to the Historic Dockyard gates.
The shelter is thought to be from the Edwardian era.
Trams last ran in the Portsmouth area in 1936.

With the sails finally reattached to the mill last week I couldn’t resist a visit this weekend to check it out. She looks great, though with builders fencing and vans still present all around I decided to compose from distance in order to get a clean shot.

Here's another shot from the historical Khusro Bagh in Allahabad. Seems like some badly needed restoration is in progress.

Wishing you all a great weekend!

I need to install photoshop to finish it. Using GIMP without knowing where all the tools are or what shortcuts there are makes it too difficult! :-)
At least now the very faded young man is visible again.
restored as it was during the First Empire. The furniture was made by Jacob-Desmalter.

Restored negative off my '48 Ciroflex TLR
Medium format, ISO800
A fair amount of sharpening in photoshop always does the trick :)
I'm quite satisfied with the edition of this photo. I like the dream-like atmosphere achieved.
Thanks for viewing.
Fort Parker was founded by Elder John Parker and his three sons, Benjamin, Silas and James, and other families from the Predestinarian Baptist Church of Crawford County, Illinois. Traveling by ox-drawn wagons, they came to Texas in 1833, settled along the Navasota River, and built Fort Parker for protection against Indians. Completed in March of 1834, the stockade's walls were constructed of split cedar logs buried in the ground and extending up 12 feet with sharp points. Inside the walls were two-story blockhouses, rows of log cabins for living quarters, and a livestock corral. The Parker family, members of a group of pioneers settling the Brazos Trail Region in the early 1800s, arrived near the future site of Groesbeck in 1833. Determined to make a go of it despite the longstanding presence of Indians throughout the surrounding countryside, the Parkers proceeded to clear brush, plant crops, and build a stockade known as “Parker’s Fort.” The fort was constructed of split cedars, anchored in the ground and rising approximately twelve feet. Blockhouses were built in opposing corners, providing a view of the landscape (and as aides in defense). Within the stockade walls the family and fellow colonists built two rows of log cabins as living quarters, completing the project by March of 1834. Despite the stockade’s heavy construction and defensive features they were deceitfully attacked. Since there had been no Indian troubles, they felt so secure they left the fort's gates open so workers could come and go with ease. But on May 19, 1836, while the men worked in the fields and the children played inside the fort, more than 100 Indians -- Comanche, Kiowa, Caddo and Wichita -- appeared at the gates with a white flag of peace. Benjamin Parker left the fort to talk to the warriors, who told him they wanted a safe place to camp and some beef. As Parker returned with beef, the riders surrounded him and killed him with their lances. Before the gates could be closed, the raiders rushed inside the fort, and killed Elder John Parker and his son Silas. As the men in the fields rushed to the fort, the Indians escaped with two women and three children. Behind them, five settlers lay dead and others were wounded, some of whom died later.and, once it was over, all members of this small pioneering community were either dispersed, kidnapped, or dead. Nine-year-old Cynthia Ann Parker would be one of the kidnapped victims. Fort Parker, abandoned after the attack, disintegrated with age. In 1930 the first replica of the fort appeared on the site, followed by a rebuild in 1967. Today, Old Fort Parker provides a living history interpretation of early life in the region courtesy of the Fort Parker Historical Society and the city of Groesbeck. A full, year-round event schedule includes trail rides, festivals, and celebrations. - See more at: texasbrazostrail.com/plan-your-adventure/historic-sites-a...
This imposing, six-sided, wooden lighthouse looks thoroughly at home on Cemetery Point. But this is not its original site.
The lighthouse was first built on a rugged headland at the entrance to Akaroa Harbour, more than 80 metres above sea level. The site was chosen in 1875 and the lighthouse built in 1878-79, to a design that was developed by an engineer, John Blackett, for New Zealand conditions. There are several similar lighthouses elsewhere on the New Zealand coast, but the design is particular to New Zealand.
The materials were brought in by ship to a landing in Haylocks Bay, near the site, and hauled up a specially built road to the top of the headland. The light first shone on 1 January 1880. It was a “manned” lighthouse and keepers’ houses were built on the headland.
In 1977, the old lighthouse was replaced by an automatic light. The following year a Lighthouse Preservation Society was formed in Akaroa and by the year’s end the tower had been cut into three pieces and manoeuvred over steep and narrow Lighthouse Road down to Akaroa, where it was re-assembled on Cemetery Point. Its historic equipment, which had been salvaged before the tower was moved, was then re-installed.

Scotland is famous for many things like Tartan, Haggis, Scotch whisky, Loch Ness monster Nessie, Golf, bagpipes and F1 legend Sir Jackie Stewart.
However having said all that, here at MSI we don't do commercials but if we did we would have to say that "Probably the finest thing to come out of Scotland is Blancpain & BTCC grid girl and Maxxis Super Babe Suzanne Whitby!"
