visiting the Great Central Railway for the January 2024 gala from the Severn valley railway 75069 seen at Beeches Road signals
📟 : H19 to Harrow
🚍 : DLE30016 - SN60EBX
🚏 : Rutland Road
DLE30016 heads along Pinner Road (A404) in North Harrow as it operates circular route H19.
Usually operated with Enviro200MMC, DLE30016 made the escape onto the route. The DLE that moved from the 423 are supposed to be allocated to the H11 but recent fleet movements have seen mixes of allocation.
Two Standard locomotives turned out in immaculate condition tackle the bank with ease out of Keighley station on the Keighley Worth Valley Railway. Leading the train is Standard tank 2-6-4 No 80002. backed up by Standard 2-6-0 No 75078. Very popular with loco crews in steam days and preservation for their free steaming, sure footedness and comfort.
All of Britain’s Big Five car manufacturers of the 1950s made forays into the light commercial vehicle sector. Some of the offerings were derived from the saloon cars of the period, while purpose-built designs were developed for the heavier 75-cwt to 1-ton sector. None of the offerings was a shining star, driver comfort and easy engine access being low priorities. A lack of pulling power, quirky gearboxes and dodgy braking were other attributes. Perhaps the best of an indifferent bunch was the Bedford CA, the market leader in this sector, its engine easily accessed from a front bonnet - contrast with the cab-over-engine layout of the rival products.
Financially straitened Standard Motor Co. was a late entrant to the market in 1958, when it launched the Atlas van. Initially with a 948cc engine, it was singularly underpowered. Sales were feeble, although some were adapted as mobile caravans and minibuses (as modelled by Dinky Toys and this example at the Coventry Transport Museum).
Under Leyland Motors ownership, the Standard marque was phased out, and the Atlas became a Leyland model. Production had ceased by 1965, the year in which Ford shook up the van market with its revolutionary Transit model.

Continuing the Potteries uploads from one of First Groups more intriguing operations thanks to its eclectic fleet and colours ranging from original Barbie to the many variations of Olympia branded colour schemes.
Over the past decade, First Potteries has been seeing investment after years of neglect; it is one of the more eclectic of First's bus operations with a nice mixture of buses, but now modern and having experienced the operator first-hand, well-maintained interiors with friendly drivers.
A common fixture at The Potteries has been their fleet of single-deck Scania OmniCities on CN94UB chassis's, not a surprise as out of all the First divisions, The Potteries had a proficiency for Scania's compared to other subsidiaries across the UK. The Potteries operate 21 Scania OmniCities in a huge variety of colours, some in different standard Olympia liveries, others in colourful branding.
5 of the Scania OmniCities in The Potteries fleet are amongst the oldest single decks in First Group's portfolio, 65001-65005 operate the majority of the area's routes. The OmniCities were new to The Potteries in 2004 and spent much of their life operating on the 18 between Hanley and Leek. They received route branding after receiving repaints in 2014 carry the revised Olympia livery with pale blue fronts.
7 years since receiving repaints, the livery is now looking decidedly tired as 65003 shows, as rebranded refurbished newer 06-reg Scania OmniCities for the 18 now known as The Leek Link took over, relegating the older OmniCities to other local work. 4 of the 5 Scania OmniCities still retain this livery, with 65001 now repainted with fuchsia front ends.
Scania OmniCity 65003 (YN04 YJE) leaves Hanley Bus Station on 11 to Newcastle-under-Lyme via Longton.

Seen on route X5 near Newport Pagnell.
Long-established coach service X5 between Oxford and Cambridge was suspended during the worst of the coronavirus pandemic, and has now returned albeit using buses. The vehicles drafted in are off Stagecoach's high-profile Cambridge Busway, so these heavyweight Volvos should be easily up to the job! As I understand, the coaches are having screens fitted to protect the drivers and will be back in service following this.
Given I didn't know how long I had before the coaches would return, I made a quick dash to Buckingham to snap the buses in their first week, and returned again for a few more shots a week later.
CN 2031 sits in the night paired up with CN 2155. The duo recently brought in the L531 local/freight into Decatur, Illinois. Currently sitting on the north end of the CN yard awaiting the next crew before heading back south with the L532.
CN 2031 started life as CNW 8532, which later became UP 9054.
The Standard is a combined jazz club and restaurant complex located on the Havnegade quay in central Copenhagen, Denmark.
History
The building was constructed in 1937 to a design by Kristoffer Varming and was then known as Gammelholms Toldkammer. The southern part of the building was used as a custom house for goods to and from Sweden. The northern part of the building contained the waiting room, kiosk and ticket office of the Øresund Ferries.
The building was later used by Vikingebådene, Centrumlinien and DSØ. The latter was a partnership between DSB and SJ. The last ferry departed on 30 April 2002 and the company later moved its administration to Amerikakaj.
The building was acquired by Terence Conran and converted into a restaurant complex in 2005. It contained the Japanese restaurant Ebisu, Italian restaurant Bachio and Custom House Bar & Grill. It closed in 2014.
The Standard was opened by a group of investors consisting of Claus Meyer, Niels Lan Doky, Torsten Vildgaard, Søren Westh and Karam Sethi. The complex was redesigned with the assistance of GamFratesi and Christina Meyer Bengtsson & Ulrik Nordentoft. Verandah, a high-end Indian restaurant, closed in September 2016. (Wikipedia)
