Blaenavon Big Pit 2012 Series.
Continuing the series from my visit to the Mining Museum at Blaenavon. Yesterdays image showed the overspill boxes of hats for the visitors, and this is the tidily stacked shelves of hats waiting for use. An ordinary enough image but a very poignant one for me. It counjoured up memories and similarities of the piles of skulls collected in the killing fields of Cambodia and my thoughts were easily transfered to the fact that these could just as easily be the hats of miners who had given up their lives for the black gold beneath our feet. Thousands of Welsh miners have died over the years, some underground and even more from the effects of coal dust, and it is to all these hard working and long suffering men that I dedicate this image.

I was given a big stack of records that belonged to my grandparents. I must say that I never knew they were such big fans of Honky Tonk!

Constructed in 1927 and shut down in the late 1970's, this former steam plant looms above Philadelphia's Callowhill neighborhood, a former industrial neighborhood that is in the process of gentrifying.
Rail tracks (served by the Reading lines) ran along Willow Street allowing coal-laden train cars to pull into the building. This coal was burned to heat water which produced steam that was fed into a network of mains under the sidewalks throughout central Philadelphia.
Steam production began in Philadelphia in 1889, when the Edison Electric Light Company of Philadelphia realized it could sell the steam produced from it's new downtown power plant for use as a source of heating during the winter months. Today Philadelphia's steam network (the third biggest in the country) serves numerous residential, commercial and institutional properties in and around Center City.
Since it's closure, the structure has sat as a hulking industrial ruin viewed as an eyesore and blight to its surroundings. A proposal was put fourth in December 2016 for a nonprofit group to demolish the plant under PA Act 135 that allows organizations to act as conservators of blighted properties without using eminent domain.

I was wondering where I'd get a stack that wasn't a pile of books, then the house renovations started again and I found the 1st floor was being held up by a few broken bricks and a bit of old window frame.
Screenshot from an interactive applet that visualises around 27000 series from the collection of the National Archives of Australia. The graph is a kind of stacked histogram; each series is represented as a horizontal line correpsonding to its date span. Series are sorted according to span, then stacked into a pile. Colour is also derived from year span - blue=long, red=short. The interactive simply highlights series whose span includes any given year. Blogged here.
This was the first train to meet us, about three minutes after we arrived. He was wasting no time, and was missing a headlight.
