Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture. Rust consists of hydrous iron(III) oxides (Fe2O3·nH2O) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron.
Given sufficient time, any iron mass, in the presence of water and oxygen, could eventually convert entirely to rust.
The former NSB Maschinenbau Kiel (MaK) Di-8 locomtives provide the main source of traction around Scunthorpe Steelworks. 8.703 is seen in the rusty environs of the works with a train of empty billet wagons.
The locomotives were built in 1996-1997 for Norwegian State Railways but were gradually replaced by EMD Class 66 and Vossloh Euro types. With plenty of life still in them ten of the class were sold moving initially to Redcar steelworks. When Redcar closed they moved again, to Scunthorpe, mainly replacing the YEC Janus types.
The large Bo-Bo types have Caterpillar CAT 3516 DITA engine which generates 2,110 hp and a top speed of 75mph, although it's doubtful that they will see anywhere near that speed on the lines around the steeworks.

This is a project that includes items which have been useful in the past and likely favorite for their owners. Now they have become useless and rusty, but still fascinating, because of the memories they bring and the stories that hide beneath their rust

I’m sure many people have discovered this technique, but it was new to me when I stumbled on to it while building the rusted out fence for my District 9 vig and I thought I would put it out there, along with some ways in which it might be used. The bigger pic in the lower right shows the two types of connections used to make everything here.
It really can do some amazing things, but I should warn you that it does stretch the link clips out slightly, but they are made from a more malleable plastic than standard bricks, and push back into shape very easily.
