Kuala Lumpur Railway Station (Malay: Stesen Keretapi Kuala Lumpur) is a train station located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Completed in 1910 to replace an older station on the same site, the station was Kuala Lumpur's railway hub in the city for the Federated Malay States Railway and Malayan Railway (Malay: Keretapi Tanah Melayu), before Kuala Lumpur Sentral assumed much of the its role in 2001. The station is notable for its architecture, adopting a mixture of Eastern and Western designs.
The station is located along a road named Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin, previously known as Victory Avenue, which in turn was part of Damansara Road. The station is located closely to the similarly designed Railway Administration Building, or better known as KTM Building

The rusty fonts of either Polish or Lithuanian scripture on the 1970 gravesite of Mykola's Krupavicius.
This all welded steel structure marks the grave of Mykola’s Krupavicius - (1885-1970). All the letters that are inside the arc shaped structure are welded to hollow steel tubes which are welded in place between each piece of vertical square tube.
The base at the bottom of the structure has more letters that may have threaded studs welded on the backside so they could possibly be bolted down.
I am also not sure if the entire structure was ever painted. There is no evidence of any paint. The structure is rusty. The letters inside the arc show faded & worn paint as does part of the base under the individual letters.
I'm going to have to reshoot this when the sun is lined up dead center so all the letters are bathed in sunlight or wait for a cloudy day.

Das Dach des ‚Center am Potsdamer Platz‘
(ehemals ‚Sony Center‘)
Das im Jahr 2000 nach Entwürfen des renommierten Architekten Helmut Jahn erbaute Sony Center ist ein 113.000 m² großer, gemischt genutzter Gebäudekomplex am Potsdamer Platz im Herzen von Berlin. Es erstreckt sich auf fast sechs Hektar und umfasst acht Gebäude, darunter den Bahntower, 85.000 m² erstklassige Bürofläche, 20.000 m² für Einzelhandel und Freizeit sowie 67 Wohneinheiten. Die moderne Architekturikone ist heute ein Wahrzeichen Berlins und zieht jährlich über sieben Millionen Besucher an.
Zum 31. März 2023 endete die Kooperation über die Namensrechte mit Sony. Aus diesem Grund trägt das Gebäudeareal ab April 2023 nicht mehr den Namen „Sony Center am Potsdamer Platz“. Bis zur bevorstehenden Umbenennung trägt das Gebäude vorübergehend den Namen „Das Center am Potsdamer Platz“.
Das Dach
Die spektakuläre Dachkonstruktion besteht aus Stahl, Glas und hellen, Teflon-beschichteten, Stoffbahnen. Mit einer Höhe von 67 Metern über dem Forum hat das Dach eine freie Spannweite von 102 Metern Länge auf der Hauptachse und 77 Metern Länge auf den Nebenachsen. Insgesamt wird eine Fläche von mehr als 5.250 qm überspannt. Für die Ringbalken der Stahlkonstruktion wurden etwa 520 Tonnen feuerverzinkter Stahl sowie zusätzlich 100 Tonnen für die Luftstütze verarbeitet. Das Gewicht des Sicherheitsglases beträgt 105 Tonnen, die sicher in der Stahlkonstruktion gelagert sind.
Die Dach-Illumination setzte der Pariser Lichtkünstler Yann Kersalé um. Am Abend beginnt das Licht-Schauspiel mit weißem Licht, das den Tag länger werden lässt. Bei Einbruch der Dunkelheit wechselt das Dach die Farben von Cyan bis Magenta, um den Sonnenuntergang darzustellen. Eine Sequenz dieses fließenden Farbenspiels dauert etwa 21 Sekunden und wiederholt sich ohne Unterbrechung bis spät in die Nacht. Ein Blick auf das weltbekannte Dach des Centers ist 24/7 möglich.

The roof of the 'Center am Potsdamer Platz'
(formerly 'Sony Center')
Built in 2000 to designs by renowned architect Helmut Jahn, the Sony Center is a 113,000 m² mixed-use building complex on Potsdamer Platz in the heart of Berlin. It covers almost six hectares and comprises eight buildings, including the Bahntower, 85,000 m² of first-class office space, 20,000 m² for retail and leisure and 67 residential units. The modern architectural icon is now a Berlin landmark and attracts over seven million visitors every year.
The cooperation over the naming rights with Sony ended on March 31, 2023. For this reason, the building area will no longer bear the name “Sony Center am Potsdamer Platz” from April 2023. Until the upcoming renaming, the building will temporarily bear the name “Das Center am Potsdamer Platz”.
The roof
The spectacular roof construction consists of steel, glass and light-colored, Teflon-coated fabric panels. With a height of 67 meters above the Forum, the roof has a free span of 102 meters on the main axis and 77 meters on the secondary axes. In total, an area of more than 5,250 square meters is spanned. Around 520 tons of hot-dip galvanized steel were used for the ring beams of the steel structure and an additional 100 tons for the air support. The safety glass weighs 105 tons and is safely stored in the steel structure.
The roof illumination was created by Parisian light artist Yann Kersalé. In the evening, the light show begins with white light that makes the day last longer. At nightfall, the roof changes colors from cyan to magenta to represent the sunset. A sequence of this flowing play of colors lasts around 21 seconds and is repeated without interruption until late at night. A view of the world-famous roof of the center is possible 24/7.
