On a rather damp Saturday 23 November 2019, London bus route 140 Harrow-Heathrow celebrated its history and marked its imminent shortening by supplementing 15 heritage buses into the existing service. This meant Volvo / Wright Gemini buses (and a solitary Plaxton President) were joined by 8 RTs, 5 Routemasters and 2 Metrobuses for the day.
My visit included photo stops at Hayes, Heathrow and Harrow Weald taking advantage of free rides aboard RM1397, M1069 and RT2177.

Uxahryggir (Route 52) is a scenic gravel road in southwest Iceland that stretches between Þingvellir and Biskupstungur. Winding through dramatic highlands, it provides a quieter, rugged alternative to the main Golden Circle routes. The road offers spectacular views of lava fields, glacial rivers, ancient ridges, and geothermal spots. Along its route lies Krosslaug, a historically significant hot spring known from medieval manuscripts and modern archaeological digs. Route 52 is especially stunning during the summer months, when midnight sun bathes the valley in gold and pink hues, revealing Iceland’s raw volcanic textures and isolated serenity.

Sadly, this is all I could manage to make. I know this isn't going to win the challenge but I wanted to be eligible to be judged.
This is also a preview of something to come in the future.

Nostalgia
Before the Interstate system and the big motel chains, U.S. Highways were lined by motor courts which often featured individual bungalows with attached car-ports. Often large neon signs were used to lure swarms of newly mobile tourists especially in the 1940's and 1950's.
Route 66 used to pass through Santa Fe until the late 1930's when a shorter route was built by-passing New Mexico's state capitol.
The first units of the El Rey Court (its original name) were built in 1936 on the original Route 66 as it swung through Santa Fe. A year later, US 66 bypassed Santa Fe, but thanks to the popularity of Santa Fe, The motor courts still prospered on Cerrillos Road.
Most of the motor courts have disappeared, driven out of business by the large chains and luxury hotels and inns after the 50's and 60's.
A few however, still remain, and remind us of those earlier days of travel in the west. A good example, is the El Rey Inn. It has been lovingly restored and expanded and is a comfortable throwback to those motor court days.
I was given their contact information by a friend and we stayed there on our last night in New Mexico. It was an excellent choice - clean, comfortable, and nostalgic with beautifully manicured grounds inside the court.
I couldn't resist taking a few photos, especially after I spotted this vintage Hudson.

Old Route 66 was featured in this year's VP Parade parade. The "Cheetah Girls" performers wave as I go by. Note the plugs on the pumps...
They did it up well here, repaving the old route 191 to make a pretty bike path. It runs for 2.5 miles from the 191/128 junction east along the Colorado and from that point all the way up to route 313/Canyonlands. Smooth as can be the whole way.

We took the grandchildren for a ride on the 'Santa Special' run on the Epping Ongar Railway (EOR). I didn't get a photo of the train, but I did get a shot of these splendid old London buses used to shuttle passengers to the station at North Weald from Epping and Ongar. The nearest vehicle is a Routemaster built in 1964, RM1966, and next to it is an AEC Regent "RT" type, RT1790, which entered service in June 1950. D7100_25522.NEF.
