During the mid-19th century, ships carrying timber from Canada (particularly Quebec City) would arrive at Padstow and offer cheap travel to passengers wishing to emigrate. Shipbuilders in the area would also benefit from the quality of their cargoes. Among the ships that sailed were the barques Clio, Belle and Voluna; and the brig Dalusia.
The approach from the sea into the River Camel is partially blocked by the Doom Bar, a bank of sand extending across the estuary which is a significant hazard to shipping and the cause of many shipwrecks.
For ships entering the estuary, the immediate loss of wind due to the cliffs was a particular hazard, often resulting in ships being swept onto the Doom Bar. A manual capstan was installed on the west bank of the river (its remains can still be seen) and rockets were fired to carry a line to ships so that they could be winched to safety.
There have been ferries across the Camel estuary for centuries and the current service, the Black Tor Ferry, carries pedestrians between Padstow and Rock daily throughout the year.

In mid October the transportation, shipping, and logistics industries were still in the midst of the 'Christmas Rush'. With the majority of the retail goods purchased in North America being made offshore in Asia, a surge of inbound containers full of products aimed to be in store for the Christmas shopping season hit the west coast ports starting in September. This seasonal boom compounded at the Vancouver ports with the residual backlog of containers remaining from the Canadian railway lockouts at the end of August.
CP and CN stepped up by running second sections of many scheduled intermodal trains, or extra trains running under new or rarely used symbols. For a short period, second sections of train 148 to Chicago, and 104 to Toronto were daily occurrences. In addition, new symbol 114 was running several times a week to Montreal from Roberts Bank.
Above, eastbound CP train 114-18 hustles through Glen Valley, BC, at the original location of the control point of the same name. Westbound CN Q105 is heading the other way on the north track.
My local City passed a new by-law allowing for “Backyard Homes” to be built on existing properties. To help promote the new by-law the City ran a contest and asked people to design/and or model a backyard home to inspire home owners. The City needs to increase affordable and sustainable homes for residents and this by-law is one of the strategies they are taking to ensure that as the City grows, it remains a City for everyone.
I designed and built this LEGO backyard home for their contest. This single dwelling unit is built from 2-20’ repurposed shipping containers (6.085m x 2.438m x 2.501m).

Rummaging through some old shots I realized I never uploaded this one from Goose Island. I like the grunge of this place nestled into the city. I definitely need to get back and explore here more.
Have a great week ahead!

Lumber and shipping baron Allan Gillmour (1805-1884) commissioned Robert C. Todd to make these two paintings of his property at Wolfe’s Cove, Quebec City. Each scene emphasizes an aspect of the company’s activities on shore in the lumberyard and the ships on the water, recorded by the artist in painstaking detail.
