'Mechanical parts of the locomotive (think they mean 'Tommy' here) were initially constructed in the railway works of the LNER' Methinks BR of the 1980s badly let down the forward thinkers of the 1920s and 30s.
This is part of 1997 reinternment of the Cadillac Ranch participatory art project by Ant Farm just off Route 66 (now I-40) west of Amarillo, Texas. The 1970s project was sponsored by oil man Stanley Marsh 3 on his land and reinstalled in 1997 with new cars going east -west rather than the original n/s line-up.

Enviro200s are no strangers to the 62 either, but now that route 62 is to be converted to double-deck (the first ADL Enviro400 MMCs for the route have already entered service) such apareances are destined to become rare. 36283 turns from London Road into Linton Road in Barking Town Centre on Friday 22nd April.
Official date for the conversion is Saturday 30th April, to coincide with the start of a new contract, but as the route is remaining with Stagecoach at Barking Garage the conversion will be phased in as the new buses arrive.
Route 368, which parallels the 62 for much of its length albeit mostly by different roads, is transferring from Go-Ahead to Arriva London (Dagenham depot) from the same date and will also be double-decked using Enviro400s made spare by the loss of route 168. Not bad going for a route which started out with minibuses in 1993. The double-decking of these routes is part of a strategy to provide extra capacity in an area where the population is expected to grow significantly in the next few years.
pictures of the router table modification I made to my table saw a while back.
As you can see, everything is done with angle iron and flat iron. The support beams are secured to a piece of flat steel that is in the tables recessed cutaway and the angle iron that is bolted to the end of the table top wing.

A picture taken in Birches Barn Road, Wolverhampton on 9th October 1990. It shows West Midlands Travel Metrobus 2990 (F990 XOF), still fairly new then, on the 512 service diversion route around the Bradmore District of the City. The 12-week long diversion was put into operation to avoid major road works to in Coalway Road to replace the main sewer.
My bus, route nr. 1. At Hlemmur - the main bus station in Reykjavik, Iceland. 31.01.2014.
Read about Hlemmur on Wikipedia here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hlemmur_%28terminal%29
There was a documentary film made of Hlemmur, of course with the title Hlemmur. It was directed by Ólafur Sveinsson and is about some unfortunate men who spend much time there. Read about it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hlemmur_%28film%29 and here: www.imdb.com/title/tt0436396/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
Back in 1986 when the line from Tonbridge to Bopeep Junction at St.Leonards was electrified it spelt the end for the unique Hastings line DEMU's built to loading gauge zero because of the restricted tunnel clearances on the route. It also saw the closure of the cross country route from Tunbridge Wells to Eridge.
Local staff and British Rail produced several badges for staff associated with the route to wear. These badges produced in small numbers commemorated the passing of the old order and arrival of the new.
The badge top left was produced to mark the opening of the route to electric traction. While the one top right maked the sad closure of the Eridge line the year before. This line was closed to allow the mainline to be electrified as it was said at the time money couldn't be justified for a new junction at Grove and providing electrification through to Eridge. The Hastings line was electrified on the cheap with only two new sub stations instead of the three required. This meant south of Tunbridge Wells trains would be restricted to 8-cars only as 12-car formations would exceed the lines current index. Add to that the branch to Eridge and it was never going to survive without the third sub station or replacement stock.
The third badge (bottom) marked the closure of West Marina as a traincrew depot. It did however remain as a carriage servicing shed. The 1986 electrification saw the amalgamation of two depots on the Coast namely Ore and West Marina which moved to Hastings. The biggest loser being Tunbridge Wells West depot which shut with work moved to Norwood and Tonbridge.
The Atlantic Public Library, located at the intersection of Race and Arch Streets, is Atlanta, Illinois' public library. The library was built in 1908 and has operated continuously since then. Architect Paul A. Moratz's design for the building combines the Neoclassical with an octagonal plan, an uncommon mixture of styles. The building's eight sides are all symmetrical except for the front, which is broken by a classical portico with Doric columns and a round arched entrance. The library is topped by a red tile roof.
Atlanta's public library program began in 1873. When the city built its library building in 1908, they did so through community support rather than receiving a grant from the Carnegie Foundation as most other communities did at the time.[2] A clock tower was added to the property in the 1970s, and the Atlanta Museum formerly operated in the library's basement.
The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 11, 1979.

Busy route 49 transferred from London United to Abellio London's Battersea Garage from Saturday 6th September. The route serves areas of inner West and South West London that have traditionally been poorly linked by rail, and although these have improved recently with the arrival of London Overground and a new station at Shepherd's Bush, the presence of Westfield Shopping Centre has ensured that business remains buoyant.
New '64'-registered ADL Enviro400H hybrids were delivered for the route, with most entering service on other Battersea-operated routes during the preceding week in order to identify and iron out any minor niggles. 2480 is seen again on Freiday 26th September, this time negotiating Shepherd's Bush Roundabout en-route to Clapham Junction.
The Mother Road, historic Route 66, used to run through Petrified Forest National Park, paralleling the line of telephone poles. This stretch was open from 1926 until 1958 and was the primary way millions of travelers experience the National Park. Now, a rusted out 1932 Studebaker marks its memory.
This restaurant was in New Mexico not too far from the Texas border. I was fortunate to see cars from different eras right by the front door. We were running from a severe lightning storm that just seemed to change directions as we ate.

Route 35 (Clapham Junction-Shoreditch) also transferred from Abellio London to Go-Ahead London Central on Saturday 30th April. Rather more conventional fare for this route is a batch of ADL Enviro400 MMCs such as EH48, seen at the junction of Gracechurch Street and Lombard Street in the City of London on Tuesday 3rd May.
**************************************
Routes 35 and 40 were returned to Go-Ahead London Central on Saturday 30th April, after 7 years in the hands of Abellio London. The new contracts called for 42 new hybrid double-deckers; the 22 buses for route 35 are the new standard ADL Enviro400H MMC that is now being seen in increasing numbers on London's streets, whilst the 20 buses for the 40 are Volvo B5LHs carrying the new MCV EvoSeti bodywork, a first for London although some entered service with East Yorkshire Motor Services last year. As both routes are allocated to Camberwell (Q) Garage some mixing inevitably occurs, and the types are also likely to be seen on other Camberwell-operated routes.
At the same time route 345 went the other way, from Go-Ahead to Abellio, and is now providing work for some of the displaced Enviro400s; others are going to West London for Ealing local route E9.
