MP36PH-3S #424 and F40C #611 share space at Chicago Union Station in this May 16, 2009 photo.

 

The F40Cs are unique to Metra. They were built in 1974, many years before the creation of Metra, for service on the Milwaukee Road commuter lines to Elgin and Fox Lake. Originally they were painted in a blue, white, and silver scheme, had Milwaukee Road logos, and were in that road's numbering scheme of #40-#54.

 

They were repainted into the Metra paint scheme circa 1986 and were renumbered #600-#614. They were withdrawn from service by 2004 and sold off. #611 and #614 were kept, however, and they were returned to service in 2009.

 

They are now stored at Western Avenue Yard.

People point and shout a lot when you have a GoPro camera on top of your head.

Sharing space does not mean actually meeting

First Bus Essex 34458 entering the shared space area bus lane at the Victoria Station Bus Interchange, City of Southend-On-Sea, Essex.

LJ59 LYS has just left Victoria Avenue, one of the main artery roads in to the city centre.

Further down the road from, and still part of the same traffic scheme as that in the previous shot, is this stretch of Chapel Street in Salford. It's been treated to some new street furniture and some nice designer block paving to give that "shared space" concept that town planners seem to be keen on - only this time on the bloody A6...

 

However, lost to the designers has been the effect of daily wear-and-tear on said block paving caused by numerous buses, lorries and other heavy vehicles. The designers clearly never experienced that rocky ride out of Stockport's Mersey Square, or, even worse, the approach road to Middleton bus station when both were well past their best in the nineties - otherwise they may well have rethought their plans.

Thailand. Visiting a U-lo Akha village.

 

The entrances to all Akha villages are fitted with a wooden gate adorned with elaborate carvings on both sides depicting imagery of men and women. This feature is known as a 'spirit gate' and it marks the division between the inside of the village, the domain of man and domesticated animals, and the outside, the realm of spirits and wildlife. The gates function to ward off evil spirits as well as to entice favorable ones. The carvings can also be seen on the roofs of the villager’s houses as a second measure against the control of the flow of spirit. The huts are divided by gender with specific areas for men as well as a mutually shared space. This divide is said to mimic the function of the gate.

 

The statues of the male and female figure are representing people, and they're standing guard to make sure no disease or anything else enters the village. It's a sacred thing, just for people in the village to feel safe and protected , to ward off evil and keep the community safe.

Bollards: Preserving and protecting the dynamics of future pedestrian space?

 

Abstract "Forming a physical Ring of Steel, bollards are traditionally considered essential to secure and define the public space around St. Paul’s and One New Change shopping centre. With a reduction in their use and a change to increased pedestrian space urban design can move, without loss in safety, towards effective shared spaces in the future City of London."

Mixing Old & New - Shared space - Couples Home Office - Lynda Quintero-Davids @nyclqinteriors Focal Point Styling

Two ages of British electric rail traction at the National Railway Museum in York on 16/7/2017 with class 76 EM1 26020 and Eurostar 373008 sharing space in the great hall.

We wandered in and out of the primate house several times yesterday.

The White-handed Gibbons and the Sumatran Orangutans share space. They are not two species that would even run into each other in the wild,as the gibbons are from southeast Asia and China, and the orangatans are from Indonesia, but Mercury the male gibbon, and Sugi, the male orangutan have developed an unlikely friendship, and so many times both the gibbon and orangutan families share their playroom and outside yard peacefully.

I'm assuming that since Phoenice, the mother gibbon, has her new baby, they have decided to keep everyone separated for now.

When we wandered back later in the day, the gibbon family had gone back to their downstairs quarters and the orangutans were in the playroom.

Sugi, the father was plastered up against the door to the outside yard, looking rather out of sorts about being denied access. (Just a little too cold for these guys). Tua, the Mom was relaxing on an upper ledge, and little Batu was busy playing with the straw bedding and hanging in front of one of the large glass windows entertaining visitors.

She is your typical 4 year old toddler, and just so much fun to watch!

On shared spaces (Kitchen), and the 'cut'

"Thanks for your e-mail. I take it as a hopeful rune (as opposed to a hopeful ruin) that you have much to say. After I read it I looked outside at the frozen sun, (arctic but invigorating weather) and thought that this is really what it's all about. About trying to figure out a life, one's own, to plod forward, to keep chewing away at the Gordian knot - and you're doing it, you're always at it, and your work is always focused on it too. And this I love. It's what I attempt myself and oddly enough I think it's what my mother is at in her work too.

 

Not a lot to report, but I wanted to say I love to hear of your chewing away at the world, the mastication, digestion, the excrement. I think it's good for you to be travelling and teaching as you are. It must suit you. I wish I were a tad more mobile. I get so f*cking depressed by routine. Let me know your dates of travel and I will look in to a junket to London, fares are cheap. The fat little Epicureans continue to drive me round the twist."

  

Nestled away in the middle of community living with a little getaway in a shared space

Shared Spaces Program on Street | September 19, 2020

At the junction with Victoria Avenue. Wright StreetLite LV22 HVZ, held at traffic lights, departing the bus lane. Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 LJ59 LZE just entering the bus lane across the shared spaced area, heading towards the bus stops.

 

The Sexton’s House Community Hub has recently been completed in Manorhamilton. This beautiful new community space was developed through the Shared Spaces initiative and led by Leitrim County Council. The funding has been used to develop the Sexton’s House and build a hall to the rear of the building in Church Lane. The community space will be used to promote positive relations characterised by respect, cultural diversity and people can live, learn and socialise together.

 

The project has been funded by the Peace IV programme, which is managed by the Special EU Programmes Body.

Toby and Sue sharing space (and a little food) on a beach picnic. Our dog Jess is chasing waves, but Toby is getting re-acquainted with old friends. We walked this dog for many years while living in rental accommodation, and still occasionally get to collect him for an outing.

A busy road junction with no traffic lights

 

This innovative idea of road management is to make traffic lights redundant for a four week trial period at a busy town centre junction in Kirkintilloch in East Dunbartonshire and leave it to drivers of vehicles and pedestrians to have equal priority and social responsibility in equal measure.

 

This "Shared Space" idea seems to work in many part of Europe. Vehicles now automatically tend to approach the area with due caution but keep moving leading to less traffic jams at key points....well that's the theory. The unfamiliar bright green hatchings are really there too. As it says on the leaflet , this part of Kirkintilloch's future 'Town Centre Masterplan'.
